Love what Bob Marley said once when asked if there was a perfect woman.
He replied,
Who cares about perfection?
Even the moon is not perfect, it is full of craters
What about the sea?
It's very beautiful, but very salty and dark in the depths.
And what about heaven?
Always so infinite, that is, the most beautiful things are not perfect, they are special and every woman, every man and every human being chooses who is special '' in his life.
Stop trying to be ''perfect''. Better try to be free and live doing what you like, without trying to please others.
So true x |

If she's amazing, she won't be easy. If she's easy, she won't be amazing. If she's worth it, you wont give up. If you give up, you're not worthy. ... Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.

He did quite a few really good ones, but that one was the one that stands out for me. C&P though - I'm not that much of a spotter. |

"There's such a thing as 'perfect for you'.
Is Bob saying amazing women are difficult? I can't agree
Think it's more geared towards finding 'the one' and persevering. Not Fab"
Yeah I realise that. But if a relationship is difficult and causes suffering to a large degree it really isn't worth it ...is it?
We quite often say we're perfect for each other (mainly because nobody else would have us) and we've certainly rubbed the sharp edges off each other over the years but hurt and suffering are the least of our experience of each other. |

Robin Williams:
We need to choose who we let in to our weird little worlds. You're not perfect Sport, and let me save you the suspense. This girl you met, she isn't perfect either, but the question is whether or not you're perfect for each other. That's the whole deal, that's what intimacy is all about. Now you can know everything in the world Sport, but the only way you're finding out that one is by giving it a shot |

I can identify with this.
Know and accept each other, warts and all. Persevere when things get tough but don't accept toxicity. |

"Thank you op. That was actually nice to be reminded of that type of stuff. 
To follow that on what I just said, I had to look at some people and I see people I think are perfect, and it baffles me that they think they’re not, or weren’t. I don’t think they understand how I saw them or see them through my eyes. And I’ve always get frustrated with myself that I can’t verbalise and get them to understand it.  "
Maybe if you tack 'to me' on the end it'll become more believable |

That’s what I meant, or at least that’s what I tried to say, you can see my problem. Haha. |

Does "easy" here mean eager to have sex, or have I misinterpreted that? |
