PLEASE believe me when I say I am not perfect, nor do I expect perfect. I layed out why I "didn't like" some of the previous guys I had gone on dates with. I really believe that two people can fully accept and love each other for who they are- but things have to feel right.
In "The Single's Ward" movie, there is a girl that says things like:
"My husband will be able to lift 500 pounds." and
"My husband will cook dinner every night."
(I don't actually know the exact lines from the movie, but they are exaggerated and funny.)
At the end of the movie, it rolls through the "Happy Endings" for all the characters and who they married. This girl with unattainable high standards, ends up marrying a big, burly trucker... not at all who you expect for her and her impossible standards.
So you know... my dream of finding a tall, strapping, flannel-wearing, beard-growing, tree-cutting lumber jack means I will probably get married to:
Yet I will love him, because he is mine!
PS- While I do like tall, strapping, flannel-wearing, beard-growing, tree-cutting lumber jacks, please don't think that is actual criteria.
PPS- Once, on a cruise to Alaska, I stopped in Juno and went to a lumberjack show. The audience is divided and we were supposed to cheer for a team. "My team" won an event and one of the lumberjacks gave me a tree ring (like a giant chunk of the tree) as a souvenir. We totally had a moment!!! ;) One step closer!
