Nobody Needs Someone Perfect
7:05 PM
Probably the reason why most of us are not contented with the person we are with or why we cannot find the person we want to be with is because we are always looking for someone who we think is perfect. We create this fictional character in our heads that is the person who has everything we want.
Sometimes we overlook those people who can be good for us because we have seen their imperfections. We ignore those people with sincere hearts because they’re not rich or stable. We don’t consider some because we think they’re too old or too young. We neglect those who we can have a cute and uncomplicated relationship with because they lack something we want our partners to have. We care too much about the bad side that we fail to keep track of the good things.
Maybe if we stop looking for someone perfect, we can find someone who can be great. I am not saying that we should settle for less or lower our standards. I’m saying that we should be realistic. Nobody is perfect. I am not perfect, neither are you so we don’t deserve someone who is.
When you find someone who takes your breath away, someone who makes you look forward to Mondays, someone who laughs with you and laughs at you, man, you have found a keeper. He is not perfect but he is amazing. Don’t hold back because he’s wallet is not always full or because he’s not sporting the hairstyle you would usually go for. Take a chance on him. What if he’s the best thing that will ever happen to you but you failed to appreciate his beauty?
Love is not perfect. It isn’t about perfection either. Love is about seeing the person’s imperfections and embracing each of them. It’s about looking at that person and thinking, “I got myself someone incredible. I’m not letting this go.”
