The truth is that everyone has issues. And maybe building up a fake perfect man in my mind was my biggest issue of all. I've been walking round the ghost of my magic man. He's been hunting me, keeping me from recognizing a world of opportunity that was right in front of me.
But there's no such thing as perfection. Love is for people who are realistic and smart enough to open their hearts and minds and who realise that a real relationship is the ultimate fantacy.
