You know, your post makes me think of when I read the “Lost Books of the Bible” and they were speaking of Lillith.
According to legend (or the Bible, depends on if you accept part of these works as the Bible-some do, some don’t- I personally don’t think King James’ priests were the end all be all of deciding what is valid or not, but whatever) Adam was created along side his first counterpart, Lillith. She was created just as he was created, whole and complete in her own right, and then she rebelled against Adam’s attempted dominion over her. She left the Garden of Eden to consort with “others” it said and I have always wondered if the “others” are as you state.
Then of course Adam became lonely and so God said for him to have a mate, he would have to sacrifice and there’s where the rib came in.
Anyway, it kind of falls in line with what you are saying.

Yeah, I understand there is that "thinking" that is out there ... but that one is "made out of whole cloth" -- and doesn't exist, in the very least, in Scripture.
Now, while this particular idea (that I was talking about above) is very, very limited in what it does say, at least it does say it ...
I'm very reluctant to accept something like that, totally without even a single expression of support in the Bible, while this (above) does have several places of support in the Bible.
I hope you see what I mean there. :-)
And... what kind of goes along with this idea that you're talking about -- is the idea that there is something missing from the Bible. Well, of course there is something missing from the Bible... LOL ... Does someone expect that the entire world's history is going to be included in the Bible? :-)
Nothing is missing from the Bible that God intended to tell us and that we should know about and that we can depend upon -- as 100% inerrant and infallible and without error of any kind. What we have in the Bible right now is exactly what God intended for us to have (He's powerful enough to make sure of that, I have no doubt ... :-) ...), and we can depend upon it. We can't depend upon anything else like that.
