5 Reasons You’ll Never Be ‘The Perfect Couple’
Stop looking for something that doesn’t exist.
Picture the scenario: You’re out with your partner at a friend’s birthday party.
It’s a garden party. Plenty of people (post-COVID, of course) and plenty of other couples you know.
Suddenly, you focus on a specific couple. You begin to compare. You look for similarities, differences, anything you can highlight between their pairing and yours.
Ultimately, you’re dissatisfied. You’ve concluded that your chosen couple is simply better than you.
You turn to your partner:
“Look at them, why can’t we be like that? They’re the perfect couple!”
If you’ve ever even come close to following this train of thought, you’ve made a grave mistake.
Newsflash: ‘The Perfect Couple’ doesn’t exist.
It’s a worn-out phrase with absolutely no specific meaning or usefulness.
If anything, its only use is to make you feel bad about your own relationship, which is never healthy.
So the next time you create an idyllic image of your favorite couple in your mind, take a step back and remember these five points.
