I’m glad this article was written, but it’s not just that Mr/Mrs Right doesn’t exist in “today’s society,” or that you can’t find him/her because superficiality is too easily accessible. The only time or dimension that he/she does exist is your imagination. The perfect person never has been born. I truly believe there are hundreds if not thousands of compatible people in the world. You pick one you really like, who comes along at the right time in your life, and together the two of you create the “perfect” couple. You work at it, every. single. day.
It’s not just that your match isn’t tall dark and handsome, but you’re too focused on this Disney ideal of a soulmate that you become unsure of the person you’re with. It creates uncertainty in our lives, which produces friction with the world around us. This, of course, is a snowball, because we think he/she is supposed to make us happy. No, YOU are responsible for your own happiness and nobody else.
