Are we made of corresponding puzzle pieces?

my spouse is perfect for me. We are opposite enough to balance each other out in good ways but are still in agreement about important issues and enjoy doing a lot of the same things and really enjoy being together.
I believe to a degree that some people are just made for each other , but I also believe that any relatinship can work well if both parties are willing to honor one another above themselves and put the others needs above their own - choosing actions of love over self seeking.

There was only one perfect being who walked this earth...he was crucified more than 2,000 years ago. We aren't perfect human beings, but we understand and accept each others faults. I don't dwell on what I want to change about my spouse because it's not my prerogative to change anyone else. I do strive to work on my own imperfections and become a better person. However, you can have the perfect relationship with the one that makes you happy and complete. There's that saying.....
"I like you because of...... I love you in spite of"

No since Jesus left the planet has anyone been perfect.
However, the most successful marriages have the following factors in common, any failure of any two creates problems.
1. Married after age 25.
2. Common goals.(children, careers, material or none material)
3. Religious compatible(Hindu's and Jew's are a bad mix)
4. Low maintenance
5. Close social economical class(poor +rich only works in the movies)
6. Communicates(even most hidden secrets, honest, trust, and no mental abuse statements).
7. Sexual compatible.(this includes fantasies, wiliness to accept someones differences).
8. Similar likes and dislikes(opposites may attract, but they do not stay together)

Are you kidding me? That's just crazy. If that were so, and there was only one "piece" for each of us, Period....then why do we reconnect with someone if death takes our spouse, or if divorce comes? No one is perfect. I think you just overlook when the pieces are rough around the edges, that's all. This kind of "perfectness" only lives in fairytales...and how many of us are fairies? :)

no my husband is not even close to perfect. Although he has some serious flaws i still love him. I believe we are all made up of puzzle pieces and none of us are perfect.

Depends on your definition of perfect. He is perfect in he works hard to provide for his family, is there when I need him, is calm and reasonable when I am ready to fight. He is far from perfect has his faults but that is all part of being human and loving someone because when you love them you love them faults and all and even though perfection isn't there you have what you want and need in that person.

No, but he's right for me. I like the analogy of puzzle pieces, because he and I just fit each other right.

No one is perfect and everyone has their own faults. It's just a matter of admitting your faults to yourself and you'll be okay. My hubby is a great man he does so much for me and our children, but I also pull my own weight. We work well together and that is all that matters. So I guess yeah he's perfect for me anyway, faults and all.

no one is perfect but hes pretty close to it I'm really lucky to have found someone that completes me and makes me want to be better hes such a great guy. I know that may sound fake to some but we are really great together we have differences like everyone but we get past it.
