Your post highlights why I dislike outcome card positions in relationship spreads. I usually throw out that position or alter it. I think that the word "outcome" is just too vague -- what outcome is the card referring to? What point in time is this particular "outcome?"
My point exactly, in a number of threads.
An "outcome" is how things finally end up. As long as you are in a relationship, or out of a relationship and still in touch, or out of a relationship and out of touch but with a future possibility of contact, then there is no outcome. The relationship is still there, doing what relationships do, which is to change and evolve. There are only two possible actual outcomes for a relationship: people breaking up for the very last time and refusing all contact with each other, or the death or one or both people, hopefully of old age. Anything else isn't an outcome yet. Marriage isn't an outcome - it's another changing stage. Breaking up isn't an outcome if there is any possibility of reconciliation. A happy relationship isn't an outcome. A miserable relationship isn't an outcome. They are all just stages, not the end-point.
If as the OP has stated, the relationship is only a few weeks old and there are already warning-signs in the relationship itself (the first couple of years, at least, should be blissful), then I'd be thinking twice. And if Death comes out, a card of irreversible endings, then perhaps it really is time to end this relationship before it has totally trashed your life, and look for something better. No one deserves unhappiness.
And if the OP can't remember which guy it was, then obviously not a "soulmate" and no great loss.
