Wow. I just. Wow.
Obviously everyone has some sort of "perfect" person in their mind, but that description is to the extreme. I generally like dudes with brown hair and dark eyes, but shit. I was more interested in finding someone with a great sense of humor and who was caring and who was enjoyable to talk to and who could hold a job so I didn't have to always support him.
When we reminisce about our first impressions of each other, my husband's never "Well you met my exact physical criteria of a suitable woman." It's always that I was intelligent and funny and was the only girl he had ever met who was paying for her own car, school, etc by working constantly while going to school full time at the ripe old age of 19.
Maybe we're less romantic and more practical? Not that we aren't romantic but we both make choices in a practical way rather than a romantic, whimsical way. And that was when we were a decade younger than you are now. We were both more focused on personality characteristics than looks, but even after 7 years, we can go to the damn grocery store, make each other laugh the entire time, and truly enjoy each other's company. I can't say that for any couples we know who got together solely based on looks and common hobbies.
Not trying to rail on you Beps but damn. Someday you're going to be old. Are you really going to care about tattoos and piercings? With expectations that high, you're just setting yourself up to fail, unless you want to fail for whatever reason.
