Person with whom to arrange meals out? (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
soul mate
'person' is the definition.
(soul mate is a kind of person)
'arrange meals out?' is the wordplay.
'arrange' indicates anagramming the letters.
'meals'+'out'='mealsout'
'mealsout' with letters rearranged gives 'SOUL MATE'.
'with whom to' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for soul mate that I've seen before include "Friend with a deeply personal relationship, like spiritual spouse" , "Person ideally suited to another" , "Person ideally suited to self, spiritual pal" , "perfect partner" , "lover?" .)
