When Will Men & Women Learn?

So many women and men out there today complain, nag, and b*tch about that there are no good matches out there for them. I'm sure many of you have heard all kinds of excuses from she's too thick or too thin, or he's not tall enough, and I like to wear heels. And then there's excuses like I don't like guys that complexion, or I like girls with long hair. Hey nobody is saying just settle for anything and throw out standards, but forget about having that person of your dreams bump into you while you're standing in line at Chipotle. It doesn't work like that, at least not very often. Of course we want that mate who is stable, attractive, friendly, intelligent, not crazy, respectful, mature, and without kids galore. But that's not to say just because that person doesn't look like what our dream/ideal person is supposed to look like, that the right match isn't out there.

Just like a lot of other things you encounter in life, you need to step outside of the box when it comes to dating. The real world is a whole lot bigger than your "fantasy world" that doesn't really exist. Women need to stop with the statements like I need a man at least 6 feet tall. Especially, when they are only about 5 feet even to 5 feet 6 inches tall themselves. You are very likely missing out on a great man who is about 5 feet 10 inches tall. The same goes for guys saying things like I need a woman who is Halle Berry's complexion. When a tremendous woman with Gabrielle Union's complexion is right under their noses.

The list goes on and on for reasons why women and men eliminate, or don’t even give the chance for a fantastic person to enter their life. Too young, too thin, too this, too that, not this, not that, give it a rest. Lower your wants/needs not your standards. You just might find a life of happiness with someone that you usually would’ve never given a chance. Life is too short! Don’t waste it trying to find that “perfect” person. There is NO such thing as perfect. Live life and love…
