Open your heart and close your eyes

So many times I have heard friends lamenting that the perfect man or woman for them just doesn?t exist. When you ask the person doing the crying what they want in a partner they describe someone good looking with a great figure, great personality, usually younger than them and with lots of money.

That’s usually coming from a person of mediocre looks, a dumpy figure, a number of personality quirks and no money. They are always quick to point out that once someone gets to know them, looks won?t count. Don?t get me wrong, you can usually see some good qualities in that person, knowing them as a friend. And princesses do kiss toads from time to time but let’s get realistic.

If you are truly looking for a great partner to share your life you have to take an honest look at yourself and really consider what is important to you. Really, honestly look at yourself. I just heard a 350 pound slob of a man say he would never go out with a woman who is overweight. Now when you get to know this guy you learn he?s hard working, smart and funny. But he isn?t rich or well known. And for him to dismiss a whole bunch of women based on their weight and then say he is looking for the right soul mate is very hypocritical.

While there is a saying that opposites attract the reality is that people who are alike, who have things in common are more likely to be happy with each other. Most people end up marrying someone whose looks would be rated similarly to them, whose personality has some quirks that can be lived with and whose economic situation is similar to theirs. We hear it all our lives and many of us spout the words- ?its what?s inside that counts? but then we end up sorting potential partners into categories by what they look like instead of getting to know them.

If you truly want to find a partner to share your life try giving the person with the dumpy figure, the odd personality or not so great job a chance. Go into any dating experience with an open mind, maybe the person that doesn?t fit your ideal partner profile at the beginning will become the light of your life.

The person who sticks rigidly to looking for a prince or princess will probably never marry and they are probably deep inside afraid of finding a person who wants to marry them anyway. Do you really, truly want a life partner? Then open your heart and close your eyes!
