We all put up with behaviors and charcter flaws in our significant others. How close to perfect does a guy have to be to be acceptable ? 80%... 90%?

100%
You have to be able to recognize his flaws and ACCEPT them as part of who he is, and then love who he is 100%. He may not be the empitome of perfection, but he's 100% perfect for me =]

there's no such thing as a perfect guy. not even 70% perfect. i think 10% perfect is what you should look for. otherwise, you'lle never find a suitable mate that will satisfy what you need or meet your expectations. this is coming from a Christian perspective. You should look for someone who has the same/similar morals as you and who will treat you with respect. you should feel comfortable around his friends (it always helps if his friends are actual good friends and not just punks who are bad influences) and parents(very important), and be able to trust him. if he has a bad track record w/ girls, then i'd avoid him...unless you can tell that he has changed and has matured. this is just the basics, though................

u can't put a % on perfect because perfect has different meanings for everyone. my husband is 95% perfect to me but obviously wasn't to his exwife (or her to him) or they would be together. of course my husband has flaws (everyone does.) he's stubborn as a mule and a little spoilt but he's pretty much perfect for me. he's an awesome father to my children. and ladies my husband cleans house and hates sports, hunting, and fishing. and no he's not gay or a robot.

the conception of perfect is all wrong. it's who is perfect for you.
6 years ago, my veiw of perfection was Vin Deisel. a beautiful body, lots of money, full of potential, and goal striven.
now, perfection is my husband. with smelly feet, a big beer belly, the one that NEVER puts the toilet seat down, the one that won't let me get a dog, leaves his clothes all over the floor, won't use a towel to dry himself when he gets out of the shower, flicks his boogers on the walls, eats anything he sees, farts anywhere and everywhere. but he also opens the door for me everywhere we go, eats everything i cook for him, holds me close to him every night, takes me out as often as he can even though he's maxed out his credit cards, puts a roof over my head, tells me he loves me all day long, calls me thoughout the day just to say hi while he's at work, tells me all about his day at work, drags me to all his friends parties. that's perfection.

You can never be perfect and don't you try to be because you will get exhausted and you will lose it.
If you lose the guy he will be perfect in your eyes...it's not a competition, no one is perfect. Accept your spouse as they are.

The first step is for the woman to ask the same question of herself and get that percentage. Then she can set her expectation accordingly.
Don't look for a prince if you are no princess

0% if he is a MAN.
A man is responsible and slefless for his family.
Nothing else counts.
The point is you don't measure a perfect MAN by weather he does enough dishes. That's silly.
