Settling down, or just settling?

Humans beings are social creatures that long for that perfect answer to the conundrum we call "relationships". We have an instinctual nature to find someone to share ourselves with. But are we falling into the trap of just settling? Are we satisfied with someone we can be content with, instead of finding our perfect half. Does the perfect half even exist? With everyone we share a relationship with there is always something that we wish we could change. And when we meet someone that we idealize to be perfect, one who has all the qualities we expect.... don't they seem to be out of our reach. Or even at best, when we do seem to capture that special piece to magic to call our own, do we realize that it was really just smoke and mirrors. Is the perfect relationship a figment of our imagination?

In pursuit of perfection, if perfection is reached, does having nothing left to pursuit takeaway our purpose. Thus tarnishing our found perfection. Maybe that is the reason we just settle. For with imperfection, we can strive to blotch out all blemishes, making a relationship a work in progress. A beautiful masterpiece that will never be finish. But can we truly be happy with that? Or does our idolize perfection linger in the back our heads?

I doubt i will find a knock-out woman, that sings, cooks, plays video games, works out, and watches sports. But one can hope right. Besides when you expect perfection, perfection is to be expected as well. And I am far from perfect. But it is our imperfections that makes us perfect for each other, and nothing is better then creating a masterpiece with someone who shares the same vision as you.
