Now the real question is, what is considered perfection? I have been with physically perfect, intellectually perfect, humorously perfect, emotionally perfect. Yet, it seems encoded in our nature that we may never have all of these perfections combined. Hence, it is the reason why some of us are still perfectly alone. You know how when you see a couple consisted of an ugly (by modern societal standards) partner and a beautiful one (by same standards), you just can't help but think, "are you kidding me?!", yet behind this mockery lies envy of the ugly person. Well, it only distorts the definition of perfection even further, as this evidently "imperfect" person is doing someone who is "perfect." Yet, this explains an important concept...

Perfection of several traits (as listed above) may not all be accumulated in a single person, yet in a relationship of two people it can, because what one person lacks the other possesses, and vice versa. It can also be as a method of feeding our own self image and insecurities. So, maybe the hot girl or guy is only using his or her ugly boy/girlfriend as a form of self consolidation, because getting involved with a person of same physicality would only drive their complex of imperfection further.

Anyway, I promise to keep it more simple from now on as I'm afraid that all of this philosophical preaching will give the readers migraines. But, I hope you think about these concepts, and if there is anything you would like me to elaborate on or if you are confused about any particular sentence, please write so in the comment box :)
