It seems no matter where you go in this world, millions of people are looking for that "Perfect Relationship". They search high and low, far and wide and still they are not any closer to the perfect relationship now than when they first set out to find it.
So what does this mean? Does it not exist? Is the perfect relationship just an illusion that people want to believe in so that they can find fault in their current relationship? Are people not willing to be happy?
Yeah, it's a deep thought, but take a walk with me as I explore this ramble I've been chewing on...

The Idea Of A Perfect Relationship
So when it comes to being in a "perfect relationship", what does that mean for you?
Does it entail an enchanting kiss after every meal or just a relationship where you and your boyfriend never argue and you always get along?
I can see how the idea of having a loving conversation and a little naughty dessert just before bed every night would be tempting at the very least, but is it realistic?
Would a relationship be as powerful, if we didn't have a little pain with our pleasure? Now I'm not talking about physical pain, but the emotional pain that we all feel when bonding with another person.
You know all those uncertain feelings we experience and go through as our hearts widen to the idea of falling in love with someone. It can be a scary place. A very scary and uncertain place.
But it's a journey millions of people find themselves taking on the way to their idea of the perfect relationship.

The Problem With The Perfect Relationship
Now on the flip-side of the coin, would people even recognize a perfect relationship if it was staring them in the face? Have you witnessed traces of a seemingly perfect relationship throughout your journey?
If you did, what did it look like? What did it smell like? How did it feel?
I know myself, I've experienced many moments of pure bliss and an almost euphoric state a time or two throughout various relationships..but it wasn't consistent. Meaning there have been moments and periods where everything went according to plan and then that moment was gone..*Poof*
Back to reality, back to the struggle..back to the pain of relationships. But.. one can't be mad or bitter at the emotional roller coaster relationships take us on. We sign up for it..lol We literally buy the tickets and get on the ride time and time again.
Are we gluttons for punishment? Do we like the rush of adrenaline and dopamine flooding our bodies as we go through highs and lows with another person?
Do we like taking days, months or even years getting to know someone and then suddenly looking for another partner? Maybe some of us do and maybe some of us don't.
Maybe it's just ingrained in our psyche to keep looking for the next best thing. The next best thing close to perfect.
But I've got a question for you, when you do finally find that perfect relationship.. What will you do? Or even better yet, will you be ready?
