The verbage used is common to the culture. Now you may go around saying Sis. so-in-so I admire your sweet spirit, but that isn't what first caught your eye.

Keeping it real,

You're right Diz. The key to a perfect marriage is being the perfect mate, not finding the perfect mate.

One can never be a good mate, unless he/she is, first of all, comfortable being himself/herself.

If this were true, I would be married to perfection...

My husbands mate is the sole breadwinner, does all the housework and shopping, pays all the bills, manages the finances, and is in charge of taking care of the 2 dogs.

My mate sits on his hind end and plays computer games all day.

Trust me. If this world worked the way it should, and you got out what you put in, my situation would be a heck of a lot different.

As it is, I console myself with the inevitable nomination for sainthood that I will receive in the future.....

Does that make it better??

I think the key to this is that your situation is NOT perfect.

First of all there is no perfect marriage. But if a marriage were to be "perfect" it would require both parties to be "whole" people, emotionally speaking.

That is really subjective though. I think God gives a person a spouse to balance them out. Where one is strong the other is weak and vica versa.

It is the single that have it all together that don't marry
