You are attractive, successful, smart, and fun. Somehow, you are still single and never seem to find a fitting partner. This could be in part due to your need for perfection. We all have an idea of our perfect little Mr. or Mrs. Right floating around in our head. Trying to find the perfect partner can lead to unrealistic or unobtainable expectations in dating. Read below on how to deal with these expectations in dating.
Finding Someone Who is a Good Fit For You

Take this short Buzzfeed quiz to see how compatible you are with your significant other!
As the old Sam Keen quote goes, “We come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.”
