A friend posted this on his Facebook...I loved it.
"if you cannot handle me at my absolute worst, then why should i spoil you with my absolute best?"
Why is it that when you date someone that the second things get hard, emotional, a little rocky they bail? When things are sugary and perfect they will stick around. Why do we waste so much time trying to hide these things from the other person? Hiding who we really are?
Everyone has good days and really bad ones. But it isn't till we are so deep in a relationship that we really let ourselves be who we are?
"finding one's counterpoint in another, that's true love"
What am I looking for? I ask myself this question a lot. What do I want out of a partner...In a relationship...I want someone I can be honest with. Someone that loves me, my analytical side. Because I analyze every and anything. My emotional side. The days that I need so much reassurance it is pathetic. The days that I am so excited I can't contain it. My need for things...to the point that it becomes an obsession. (ie my camera). Someone that sees me for who I am really am, and loves me for my inadequacies. Someone that will hold my hand when I am 80 years old and look at me like he did when I was 30. Someone that can stand by my side, hold me up when I can't stand any longer, and isn't afraid to let me hold them up.
I want something real...the can't eat, can't sleep, can't live without kind of love. Because regardless of what anyone says it is still out there. I'm not looking for someone to complete me...just someone to compliment me.

I second all that. I liked this : " I'm not looking for someone to complete me...just someone to compliment me."
