I just read this description of "Soul Mates" in an article about marrying young by Julia Shaw. You may agree or disagree (I agree), but it certainly seems consistent with Marriage Builders and knocks down some of those (mis?)conceptions about being Soul Mates:
"Sometimes people delay marriage because they are searching for the perfect soul mate. But that view has it backward. Your spouse becomes your soul mate after you've made those vows to each other in front of God and the people who matter to you. You don�t marry someone because he�s your soul mate; he becomes your soul mate because you married him."

Well, don't know about that, but on the cover of his book "The One" Dr Harley has said that
... lasting romance isn't about finding the right person; it's about creating the right relationship.
