Nobody really gets partnered up with someone who is perfect?
Snap out of the chic flicks fantasy if you want real love!!
That is what psychologist Dr. Michelle Callahan of Women’s health magazine advices. She believes women should stop taking the “perfect guy” movies too far; that women should stop waiting for Mr. Right because "nobody really gets partnered up with someone who is perfect. It just doesn’t happen."

There is nothing wrong with having those must have lists for the perfect guy. All we need to do is prioritize those list because most of our lists are too long and unrealistic. This doesn’t mean that women should lower their standards. Women just need to be clear about they NEED from a partner and what we WANT! (Requirements vs. Preferences)
If you are constantly looking for perfection, then no relationship will ever be right for you. You will always find yourself less satisfied seeking for "butterflies" outside your marriage. No need to bee too specific and too rigid with the list. Similar values are more important when it comes to compatibility. She is super real. Have a watch:

Coaching Testimonial
"My online love inspiration angel"
Submitted by: Patricia, USA, 21
To be honest, in the beginning, I thought it would be a waste of time. But since I've never seen a similar service in any other dating site, I decided to give it a try.
I always "thought" my profile was on point and I did not need any help to correct my page. I always had in my profile if someone is not attracted to my profile, then that's "their" loss.
BOY WAS I WRONG!!
I will never forget my first time using the Coaching Service I was introduced to my personal Dating Coach. Let me put it this way, if it was not for her I would have given up long time ago (even though I'm a new member).
She taught me so many things and gave me good advice, I did not want to stop chatting with her at all.
She opened my eyes to many possibilities when finding love. She is definitely an inspiration and I appreciate a whole lot. She is more than a Dating Coach to me; she is more of a close friend/guide to me. She is definitely my "online love-inspiration angel".

Really!!! I cannot believe anyone is even thinking this way unless they are 12 years old. We are "Human Beings" which is another defination for flawed creature. If the person seeking a mate is not perfect why seek perfection in another. Finding a blissfull connection is completely different you must be in touch with what you find attractive. That would equate to a men seeking a full figured or petite woman or a woman seeking a man over 6 feet in height or a grad school education , etc. These are guidelines, however imperfections exist within that structure as well and if you are truly open to a relationship, you should be prepared to look beyond your restriction's as well. Have fun!!!
