After watching so many movies, it often seems the moral of the story is-" The perfect person for you is out there!". Before I even get the chance to ask "where?", The movie says "Somewhere- you just have to find them" and then promises a happily ever after. Every time my friends or me have tried to find the perfect one, we have run into conflicts. It seems as though the perfect one doesn't exist for us.
In the movies, though, the "perfect love" is someone you connect with perfectly, with no differences in morals or ideas, only misunderstandings that once they are resolved, lead to the perfect love story ending.
But what if you do have a conflict or a disagreement with your girlfriend/boyfriend, not a simple misunderstanding? What if it means he/she isn't for you? What if he/she isn't the perfect one? So far, I haven't found her, and I'm starting to get the feeling I'm on a wild goose chase, or more so, me and almost everyone else is taking true love the wrong way.
What if, just maybe, there is no perfect match? What if, just maybe, true love isn't perfect? What if, just maybe, true love takes work to flourish the differences with your lover in addition your similarities?If mankind isn't perfect, how can love be? I may never find a perfect love, but at least I will find one that can love me as we work together to bypass and flourish in our differences as our love grows.
P.S.- no examples are used to "prove" this, due to the fact that information about dating relationships are.... intimate and disrespectful to post onto the web for all to see.
