Yet at the same time we all have these concerns and premonitions that we will never find "the perfect" guy or gal because we do have this inherent understanding that pure perfection is a myth, and that even if it did exist it would be really boring. So what we instead try to find is that person who matches our own perception of perfection - that person who fills our holes and lets us fill theirs.
