Nobody is Perfect – Accepting the Flaws in Your Healthy Relationship

5 Aug

The sparkling lights of Broadway are a big part of the Big Apple’s luster. (And a live show often makes for a great date!) A few years back, I remember reading review after review of the musical, “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change” and laughed every time I saw the hilarious title. The show featured various vignettes that explored the humorous side of love and relationships, though, if the title is any indication, much of the humor is based in reality, which is what made the show so funny! In real life, most happy and healthy relationships arrive at a point where one or both partners feels unsatisfied, perhaps enough to utter something similar to the title of the aforementioned musical comedy. Yet, as funny as that title is, I’d be misleading you if I implied that I agree with it. It is natural to feel unsatisfied by your partner from time to time.
