Like anyone else I have my flaws. Unfortunately, one of my biggest ones is a tendency to jump to conclusions and boy when I do I may as well be jumping off a cliff! The bad part is I know before I do it that it's gonna be a train wreck but, well, I pull that train right out of the station anyway. I see something and rather than taking a moment to examine the whole picture, I find myself wearing a pair of blinders quicker than a thoroughbred in the Kentucky Derby.
Another flaw? How about impatience? I seem to be allergic not only to nuts but to waiting (both make me break out in hives). I have a tendency to be a scheduleholic which compounds the problem. I don't know what makes me crazier, waiting on a date or the horseshoer. You ever notice how both seem to be notoriously late when you're in a hurry?
Then again, if we were all perfect, it'd be like dating a computer (not to be confused with computer dating). I mean, who wants to kiss R2D2 - really. So, today it's about accepting each other - the good, the bad and the ugly. Loving is more about accepting imperfection as a key component in your soul mate than about trying to create perfection in your mate. Think about it - who really wants to end up with the Bride of Frankenstein!
