LOVE: THE PERFECT MATCH

If none of us are perfect, and none of us are, forget ever finding the perfect match. Forget ever locating that girl or guy who answers your every need before you have it, sports the perfect body; has just the right emotional responses. Forget any possibility other then getting someone off-the-rack with no alterations and if you want to make those alterations then buckle-in for the long ride of creating bad feelings at every turn and in the end maybe getting the perfect match, or what you think is perfect, that you will no longer want. The best thing about who we are, is that we are flawed, silly, noisy, smelly, often times insulting, sometimes beautiful but always so human human beings. We are not perfect nor can we ever be and we can as much not expect our partner to be as much as we can’t expect the match we make with them to be. All we can hope for is to get close enough, that the compromises do not whittle us down to the point where we lose our imperfect self and that we might have some good times with our match in the end. That’s the perfect match.
