A Perfect Love

America’s frantic search to find “perfect love” has grown uncontrollable over the years, and in this day and age the outlets that are available to us are endless. From Reality TV Shows, Internet Dating Services, etc., one has every reason to feel hopeful on their quest. However, the question is, does a “perfect love” exist?? Here we are practically killing ourselves and going for blood for something that may not be humanly possible to attain.

I suppose it depends on how one defines a perfect love. I think that we have the tendency to use the phrase loosely although in my opinion; the word “perfect” is very subjective.
One can regard a perfect love as a love that is unconditional, untainted and pure, a love that is unwavering and unflawed. But realists, like me, know that this dangerous way of thinking is a dream deferred and people who carry on with these standards are only seeking an inevitable disappointment. The truth is the beauty of a perfect love is one that is far from perfect and yet still able to grow and prevail.

However I have come up with a solution for those that feel that they can beat the odds. Those that truly believe the unattainable is in fact attainable! The catch is that there are a few things that you have to be willing to let go of in order for this to be achieved:

1. Chuck those Princess Wedding dreams out the window: If you want that type of perfect love you can’t get married.

2. The nature to care about what others say about you: My suggestion might have the nosey neighbors calling you outside of your name but you’ll get no where if you allow negative criticism deter you from your dream.

3. Clinginess: You can’t get attached to anyone. You have to know when it’s time to let go and move forward without looking back. EVER!

Take a moment to reflect on relationships in your past and think about the time you were happiest? Normally it’s the first 3 months of each relationship, right? It’s during that time that you have butterflies; your cheeks hurt so much from smiling all the time, you simply feel happy to be alive! It is also during this time the men normally go above and beyond to win your graces with their thoughtfulness and charm…basically it is during this time that you meet their representative and not the real man that you’re dating…lol.

Well, eventually the novelty wanes and what started off as perfect, isn’t so perfect after all. So with that said, for those that want a perfect love here’s what I suggest: during the span of each year, date a new man every 3 months (1 per season) that way, you can achieve what I consider to be “perfect love,” (according to the unrealistic standards). Don’t be so quick to dismiss this idea. If one can find complacency with never settling down with one person in order to enjoy perfect loves throughout their lifetime then why not?? Yeah you might break hearts along the way when you disappear, so to relieve yourself of the anguish of knowing that you hurt someone, make sure to send a thank you note as a small token of your appreciation. ;)

In case you didn’t notice this post is sarcastic. I’m just being silly
