I know what lots of people on here seem to think about loving normal people with tons of flaws and all but I have extremely high standards for myself and I expect that a potential partner should have most of those requirements as well. I dont mind not dating tons of people because of this but Im just wondering why I seem to be one of so few people who dont want to settle for just anyone.

The standards of who you date are set by yourself, for your own reasons. The opinions of others shouldn't influence who you choose to spend your time with. If you're happy with who and how you choose who you date than that's all that matters.

Well, high standards are a good thing in some categories, but not in others. You don't wanna settle for just anybody, so you SHOULD have "high" ("particular" may be a better term) standards about the things that really count... things like maturity, insecurities, faithful-ness, ect. You should, however, keep a more open mind on things they can't change, things like their height, their family life, their nationality, ect. Don't get me wrong, physical attraction is important, but to be like "I only want a guy who is blonde, blue eyes, rich, plays in a band, is 6'5", likes wearing blue shirts, thinks dogs are cute, ect." is being pretty shallow.

I was always the same and so many people called me shallow. But when you find the right person, no matter what they look like to everyone else they are flawless to you. I got to a point in my life where i thought id never find someone i couldn't find fault with but now i've been with my current bf for 16 months and still think he is flawless. You shouldn't just settle for anyone but you also need to remember noone is perfect my bf does make some mistakes as do I!

purely you may be sure if what you sense is incorrect. that is not ordinary to resign intense criteria. it will be difficult if no longer no longer achieveable to discover someone in the adventure that your criteria are really so intense that you will be "pushed away" if one ingredient is off. attempt to get alongside with those who meet your complication-free criteria and observe in case you won't be able to come across the right thanks to settle for that they don't completely meet your larger ones. And if no longer, then with any luck there's a woman accessible who's precisely proper on your criteria and who won't ever change in any respect.

Well their is nothing wrong with that at all; it will just be much harder for to find a man than any other women who don't have high standards.

it depends how high of standards you have. don't expect perfection because nobody is perfeect. not even you. its not that everyone just settles. they learn to love the imperfections that people have.
