So many women are looking for Mr. Perfect. Here is a story about looking for perfection. A woman was driving down the highway, and since she had been driving all day, she was hungry. She started to look for a restaurant to have dinner, but could not find a restaurant she liked. One was too big (slow service). One was too commercial (quality?). One was too out of the way. One had too many semi-trucks parked around it (country Western). One had an empty parking lot. She looked and looked until she was so hungry she decided to eat at the next restaurant she saw. She drove up, walked to the front door and saw the sign: CLOSED! The moral is that people looking for perfection seldom find it.

I don't believe there are perfect people, but there people that are perfect for you. Each person has their flaws, but you love them anyway. Each person has standards (we can hope they do anyway) and knows what they can overlook and what's a deal breaker.


I understand the point you're trying to make: there's no such thing as perfection or perfect people. I agree but I know there's someone that's perfect FOR me!

We all have the right to discriminate, and the reality is that we all DO.

I love it when people deal with rejection by complaining about perfection.

Unless you're trying to win a beauty contest, then you should avoid discriminating.

Rejection is harsh and it's always easier to blame the other person especially when you're the one that's perfect!!! LOL

Espcially when the other person is also a cynic.
