We would be better served to think of finding a patner who is a team player, someone we can share a life with. Not someone who is going to solve our existential problems of what it means to be alive, not someone who is going to bring perfection and bliss into our lives on an ongoing basis.

No matter who we pick, we’re going to experience challenge, we’ll be disappointed and frustrated. It doesn’t matter who you pick, we will all choose someone who resembles some kind of our unfinished business from childhood.
