It can be done, but its truly rare. Like finding people that will love you forever, there are some out there, but hard to find.

Well I used to be a drunk and it was exceedingly difficult to live with me. There is no way that I would have the patience that my former wife did. She was a good person.
I think everyone has some character defect that irritates someone else, but where do we acquire patience, tolerance, understanding,compassion and love to accept that person as they are. We cannot wish it to be so-we have to get that power from somewhere.

I could accept Tom Cruise as he is!!!
But otherwise I don't think I could anyone else, theres always something about someone that needs correctional administration!! My ex wasnt a bad fella EXCEPT......... every single time he asked a question he would raise one finger and say "Question" - it used to drive me MENTAL - that soon got changed, but then I found more annoying things about him and in the end I had to accept that if I stayed with him then my life was going to be a life long mission to change him which I just couldnt be bothered to pursue!!!
Im currently in the process of changing my current man - whom Ive been with for many years, and thus far Ive only scratched the surface, he still has many more years of brain washing to come - but, 'he's worth it'!!!!
But no, in my opinion I dont think it is possible to accept everything about someone, there is always something which you want to change whether its a simple annoying habit or something more serious - no one is perfect (EXCEPT ME OF COURSE!!!)

i try my hardest, but the ideal of saying yes is just that an idilic way of saying you dont know because you've never dealt with it.
i know every one has moaned about there partner not doing enough around the house or taking enough interest in them, cos i have!
but love rules that out for me, yup i wish his clothes would find the washing basket and the beer cans could find the bin.
but i love him more than life, and would be lost without the extra house work he provides for me!

It depends on how long you've known the person. If you've just met the person then you can most certainly expect changes. But if you known the person for quite a long time and accept them for who they are then.. yes I guess so.

Honey, most times you have to except people as they are because as a rule most people don't change. Never marry anyone in hopes that you will change them.

In my mind there is nothing greater than knowing someone close to you entirely. Everything, their quirks, their little habits, their reactions everything.
It's not something I feel you should 'accept' but actually strive to understand and achieve.

Based on your emotion in the question. You indeed know what is the best for yourself but you need to confirm your feeling to "NORMAL" person.
Expose yourself to wider mix of social life.
Remember, there is silver lining behind the cloud. There is someone for everyone.

I guess iff the attraction is great, and the love for one another is there, I would see no problems to accept a person for what they are.

We do it everyday.
I can't change you, you can't change me
we could give advice and share knowledge based on our own perceptions and experience but we have to accept we are all different.
But accepting people is not an invitation into my life,Nor is it forgiveness
you understand?
