“Nobody's perfect, so don't put a marking criteria on what you want in a companion and then expect them to not have faults or make mistakes, because what people don't realise is that relationships fail when they expect too much quickly, and ignore the fact, that people do make wrong choices, but its those choices that allow them to learn and make the right choices in the future. remember, you fell in love with them while they were imperfect, so don't expect to receive perfection. -Carniel Dunlop”
