Stop Looking For The Perfect Guy And Start Searching For The Perfect Love

Why we need to stop fantasizing over the perfect guy, and start looking for the perfect love.

Stop Looking For The Perfect Guy And Start Searching For The Perfect Love

We have all been told this our entire lives, nobody is perfect. We are all flawed, and our flaws help form us into who we are as human beings. Even though we are not perfect, I believe that there is a form of perfection out there, that can be attained. I believe in the idea that love can be perfect.

My idea of love may be different than your idea of love, and your best friends idea of love. Love comes in all shapes, forms, and ideas. What is crazy about love, is that it is formed by two people, who are flawed, and imperfect, but the feelings that are felt and created can never be altered. A perfect love to me, is when two people are able to look past their differences, love each other's flaws, and create a bond that cannot be felt by any other person.


If you are searching for the perfect guy, or girl, you are more than likely not going to find them, or if you believe you do find them, you will quickly discover some flaws about that person. Creating this perception of a perfect person in your head, will only set you up for disappointment. Yes, we would all love to have Prince Charming ride up in his carriage, and sweep us off our feet and take us to his castle, but even Prince Charming will have his flaws.

Do not deny a person based on what car they drive, or what type of clothing they wear. The love of your life might show up one day in a 1989 Ford truck, but you might not give him the time of day because he is not in a 2017 BMW. I am not saying that you should not set standards, I am just saying do not judge or turn down a person, based off of how they first may appear. He may not be the ideal guy your parents imagined for you, but if he is able to create that "perfect love" feeling for you, why would you let anyone else determine your happiness?


All relationships have their ups and downs. There are disagreements and obstacles, but being able to overcome a roadblock in a relationship, just goes to show how strong a couple is. A strong couple is able to hold on, and build onto their perfect love even more. Every couple's perfect love is different.

A couple may find happiness in hiking, and exploring, while another couple might find their happiness through binge watching Netflix series together. The memories, laughter, and good times that a couple shares are a part of their perfect love. The perfect person does not exist, but by combining two people together, who love and care for one another, they are creating their perfect serendipity.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
