If you have a serious, long-term boyfriend/girlfriend who loves you, will you be content with him/her, or will you still be waiting for the The Right Guy/Girl at the back of your mind. For me, I'd be happy with the one I'm with. It would be unfair if I keep on thinking of The Right Guy. You can't mold a person into a concept of who you want her/him to be. You to be realistic. Nobody's perfect. It's better to go for someone I've already comfortable and familiar with. One has to set a flexible standard.

If you think you are comfortable enough, so why still think for a right one? In some instances that a person might think of another one, maybe she/he is not happy or contented. For me, I won't be longing for another one if i am already happy with someone i am with. It would lead me into a miserable life. and I would never stay with someone whom I am not happy and comfortable.

Hi, I guess being contented in what you have and what you got is one of the attitude that contributes to our happiness. Thanks for responding.

To have in your mind a right one, a perfect partner is the biggest mistake that you can make, having this prejudice in your mind will not let you see the real person beside you. I think a relation should be allowed to grow without interference and prejudgment. After a wile both partner will see if they are fitted or they have irreconcilable differences between them. Normally a relation is based on reciprocal understanding and in 99% of the time each partner has to make small changes to fit with the other one.
We are real persons not pieces of a jigsaw puzzle to fit perfectly together.

hi mercedlegurpa You do make perfect sense since we cannot remake
other people but we can change ourselves and our viewpoints on
any thing. Yes do be happy with the boyfriend or girlfriend you
have as being comfortable with that person usually means you
really love that person. Even the most handsome man or woman is
not perfect and many times they have more faults than the ordinary
okay looking guy or girl.

Hi Hatley, thanks a lot; you know there are some guys/girls that tend to have really high expectations when someone is attractive. They expect her/him to be all that,and they get disappointed when she/he's not. So it's better to go for someone you're already comfortable and familiar with. Thanks for responding.

I believe that a fantasy can possibly be a reality if a person knows what are the difference of both and how to use them in real life but can never be a reality be turned into fantasy.
I would rather go for the reality. I will stay with my partner in reality and if I have some fantasies regarding a relationship, then I will tell him freely my insights about it. I believe that a right partner can be someone that is in reality. He can be someone as long we have a good relationship together which I am worthy to have even not my fantasy guy. Life is boring if you stick only in fantasy. But, in reality, life is more challenging. If people will live for fantasy than reality, then I guess no one will be suffering from heart ache pains, depressions and emotional distress because they can easily find the fantasy they wanted. Reality is still best preferred.
Happy mylotting..

Hi, being positive makes ones life healthy; clinging to fantasy makes it more stressful. We're in the same boat. Thanks for caring to response.

I would realistic and would just make the best of it. I don't believe in The Right Girl, I just believe that in every relationship, you are the one that really makes things matter. Besides, imperfection makes is the thing that makes everybody interesting, perfect means boring

Hi Petranka74, yes you're right; it's you who make your real world who makes the path of your life not your fantasy. Thank you.

Let's not be hypocrites here. Of course when someone better comes along, we want that person at the back of our minds eventhough we're with someone else. We just act coy and find a reason to not like that someone for our current partner's sake. So, naturally, we wait for someone better. I know i would be.

Hi, I assumed that you're a guy. So when you meet a really better girl, you'll decide that you shelve the other girl even if she'll get hurt because you now found a better one? Thanks for responding.

Well..I always waiting for a right guy even though my boyfriend is quite perfect actually. I don't know. In my mind, I always think that there will be a better person than him but in reality ..only God knows. I think I should accept him the way he is because he always accept me the way I am and always be patient whenever I got angry. Perfect guy is only exists in the fantasy world~

Hi, believing in reality with determination minus the anticipation makes a person contented; you're right we also need guidance for our decisions from Above. For me you've found the right guy. Thank you for your response.
