The Search For a Perfect Partner

Philippines
July 15, 2011 4:04am CST
Do you believe that somewhere out there, there's a perfect partner just meant for you? It sounds wonderfully idealistic and you might spend a lifetime searching for the man or woman of your dreams. He or she might or might not exist. But still, some people I know weren't that patient enough and it was too late (they were alrdy tied up with someone) when they finally found that magical person. Are u willing to risk it, to wait for that "ideal person" rather than settling down with someone who seemed to be stable, safe and reasonable?

Getting a idealistic mate ,counts 1 in a million. Even if u get what Guarantee that it will be clean and pure . Those are said only to pacify Excess adrenaline .Make ur own things rather than settling with hypothetical DNA

Everyone looks for their perfect partner but only to realize that there is no such thing as perfect. For me, a perfect partner does not exist. What is real is that, there is someone out there for you who will love you the way they want and not the way you wanted. Maybe, in order for us to stay happy, we must be contented of what we have. If we're in a relationship right now and you find attitudes of him/her that are undesirable for you, you must not think that there are better persons out there. We must just accept his/her desirable as well as the undesirable attitude he/she has. There is no perfect person. Only right persons. :)

artistic__temper there is no such thing as a perfect man or women as we are humans and humans have faults,even the best of them. but we who learn to love a person for their faults and their good qualities fall in love with the person God meant us to marry and are happy because we accepted each other just the way we were maybe he is overweight five pounds and she has some grey in her hair but they love all the person so there is no problem. I think thats the way God intended us to do. Take time to fall in love but not forever as there is one person who does beckon to us when we meet him or her, and we will know at once this is the person. He or she will not be perfect in the eyes of the world but will be perfect for us as we will accept him or her with unconditional love. thats the only real love.

I think it is really a silly idea that we have when we think of a perfect person for us. Life is too short to shut ones self up in a box waiting for Mr. or Ms. "right." No one is perfect, and no matter who we choose as our partner, whether for a while or a lifetime, will have flaws. I am just wondering how one decides if this person is right or wrong for them if they are not involved with the person in the first place? Whether friends or lovers, you have to have some sort of relationship to determine whether this person is your soul mate,then after a few years together you decide you still made the wrong choice. We would be much better off if we just let life happen and follow its leads.

For me since we are from our not perfect parents Adam and eve there's no perfect husband and wife you said it is perfect because you much for the desired and emotion but not totally perfect to not commit sin.

I personally don't think that there is only ONE perfect partner out there for each of us. I think that in whatever situation we find ourselves in, we will encounter many many people, some of whom are good for some of us and others not so good. But there are many people out there who you could possibly love and share a life with. I think that every person has positive and negative attributes, there is no single person that is COMPLETELY perfect with no flaws. So if you are with someone, and happy, and someone else comes along who appears to be a better match for you, I think you should be careful - because that new person will come with his own flaws as well!

I think that there is a perfect partner out there for everyone, but the likelihood of us being able to find that one person in the billions of people who are in the world is rather slim indeed. However, there might be a lot of other people who we get along with and could make a good life with, and we often settle down with these people. However, unless we find the "perfect" person, life won't be absolutely perfect and we might have some arguments and struggles. But life can still be good even if we're not with the perfect partner.

There is no such thing as a perfect partner, because you yourself is not perfect, nobody is perfect. I guess the most appropriate word to use is loving partner or responsible partner, you can name more if you like .

Welcome to Mylot Artistic! I wonder how long that will take. Perhaps you can tell me. I am 35 years old and still single, should i give up the wait as i am way past the ideal marrying age and that i should be doing my share in procreation? I am not complaining, it is just that it can really get lonely. There are times that I cry and wondered why God is doing this to me. Is he trying to surprise me or is he testing my patience? Haay... I dont want to wait anymore. All i want to do is to keep myself busy so that the pain wont hurt that much.

Yeah I do. I believe that we have one. Wherever he or she is. He or she perhaps is our true love. We got to search them. Therefore, never surrender to find him / her. Once we find him / her, our life will be happy.

hello AT, On my opinion there is no perfect one we are human we commit mistakes, we can be bad and we can be good. We can't find a person who will love us in a way we wanted there will always be an issue even how much you love each other. It is better to settle with someone who is imperfect but can be there and always be there in the time you needed them most. Someone who is not perfect but willing to accept whoever and whatever you have. I rather go for someone who can make me happy and never ever leave me even our hair will turn into grey. happy mylotting

I usually don't join in on these conversations but I'm willing to give my two cents. I'd rather wait for that right person. When you know you found the right man or woman for you, you can feel it in your heart. That other person you feel is right for you will feel it in their heart but it's best to take things slow. A lot of people, especially in Western countries, move too fast and end up doing things with this person they later regret because they weren't patient. I'm not going to do it. I personally feel that I wouldn't be able to survive a relationship and I don't wanna be apart of this roller coaster everyone calls love. I don't think I'll ever fall in love and I'm perfectly fine with it.

It's really hard to find a great partner. I believe that God gave us someone to be with us for the rest of our lives and you don't have to look for it because if he/she is for you destiny will finds a way to be with the one who is meant for you.

Hello there, I personally believe that everyone of us is destined for a perfect match. Funny though at times, we are so stuck at our own idealism that this perfect match is right under our nose but we keep on searching some place else.

Their is no body in this world that is perfect,but God him self.But every one of us can fine true love the to swept us off our feet.In this world today their so many heart breakers,but their is always that special person waiting to be love. An that person is not easy to fine as well, as you it can take a life time before you fine the the person. I too was searching, and it did take a long time before i fine him and it was wort while. The right soul-mate can take time,especially if your looking for specif quality that the male are female posses.I am did rick the wait, and i did fine him an we are happily married so its up to you now to do the rest. Good luck

I don't believe that there is a perfect partner, perfect man/woman in this imperfect world. Each one of us being human have our own assets and liabilities, strengths and weaknesses, hence there is no perfect person. But.....I believe that there is a perfect relationship...it is when our weaknesses becomes the strength of our partner and vice versa. What's lacking to the other whould be filled by the other making them both whole. And once this happened, the relationship is perfect as both contributed to make it whole and perfect.

I am wiling to risk for the guy who'll love me with all his heart. I'm sure it's worth waiting. Than being with someone you're not sure of. :) It's really hard to look for the ideal person now, it's fien if he's not ideal as longa she's true to himself and to mine.

Well , we are all surrounded by many many different persons and naturally , there will be the one that is the best partner for us among them. the problem is , that there are just too many people to learn about until we find the best partner for us among them. many people will just have to compromise and look for the best partner among a smaller group of people , not all the people in the world. I think the best thing one can do is not to wait for finding one , but to try to meet and know as many people as he can. So he/she will finally find the person who will have a good life with and be good friends and love each other.
