Have you ever "Settled" for someone who was "Perfect" but who you never had felt a real CONNECTION with

Question

Please tell me your story or just give some general advice on this topic.

Thank you.

Answer 1

Yes, and I married him. My advice to you is never to settle for someone that you have no real connection with. Things will be fine in the beginning, but in the long run as you grow older and wiser, your heart will become lonely and happiness and contentment will elude you. Life is much too short to let that happen. Try to find someone who sets your heart on fire; someone with whom you feel a deep spiritual, emotional, and physical bond. When you meet him/her, you'll know it. Hold tight to that special someone and thank your lucky stars because some of us will never have the opportunity to experience true love. So when it knocks, answer.

Answer 2

I haven't personally - a real connection is very important for me when it comes to such a huge commitment. One of my close friends however married a gorgeous, highly intelligent, 6'1 Swedish girl. They now have three kids together and fight constantly. They are both lovely people but are extremely unhappy together.
My advice would be - don't have kids until you're absolutely sure and if you're truly unhappy, and have tried everything, end it now as amicably as you can - it will only get worse.
