“I don't believe there is only one right person for you. I
fell in love with my wife, Harriet, from the first moment I saw her.
Nevertheless, had she decided to marry someone else, I believe I would have met
and fallen in love with someone else. I don't believe she was my one chance at
happiness in this life, nor was I hers. Another error you might easily make in
dating is expecting to find perfection in the person you are with. The truth is
the only perfect people you might know are those you don't know very well. Everyone
has imperfections. One of the things I've realized is that if someone is
willing to accept me — imperfect as I am — then I should be willing to be
patient with others' imperfections as well. Since you won't find perfection in
your partner, and your partner won't find it in you, your only chance at
perfection is in creating perfection together.” – Dieter F. Uchtdorf
