Honestly, it's more of a myth. Given a choice by God to describe a Mr.Right, who would materialize before you as soon as you stop describing, how soon would you stop? You would blurt out all the virtues you have ever known. Perfection would rule your description.

The poor thing has to be tall and handsome. He has to be smart and humorous. He has to be sensitive and romantic. The list runs long. Would ever God come knocking at your door and deliver you a person who is accomplished with all the qualities you can ever think of?

I never came across a Mr. Right. But I fell in love with this imperfect person who is a world apart from my dream Mr.Right. Nevertheless, I couldn't have been happier staying with anyone else. He is my Mr.Imperfect. Yet our rhythm matches so often. I share a comfortable space with him. And I find it worth leading my entire life with him. Even when it means discovering more and more things about him, which give me reasons to frown.

Since perfection is such an idealistic state that cannot exist, Mr. Right or Mr.perfect are never born. But the relationship evolves towards perfection with better understanding and intimacy. Imperfections in him would start looking beautiful. And you might end up adoring those imperfection and secretly smiling at it. I do the same, though in front of my husband I scowl every time he leaves bathroom floor wet after taking his shower.

I never waited for a Mr. Perfect since I come across my own imperfections so frequently in my daily life. What matters in a relationship is compatibility. If your imperfection matches his like a jigsaw puzzle, there you are with your Mr.Right.

It's better to come out of the Mr.Right mania early in life. That's how we can appreciate beauty in other people more often. While dating an unknown person, if you meet him without any pre-conceived ideas of perfection, the chances of your date creating a good impression on you, is high.

The sooner you get rid of your Mr.Right myth, the faster you would come across your Mr.Compatible.
