Are you the one?

I, like so many of you love reality shows. Right now I’m hooked on MTV’s Are You The One. While watching this an intriguing question came to mind, if I (or any of you) was placed in a house full of people including my boyfriend of 4 years (but in this situation I don’t know him) would I be able to still pick him out of the bunch as my perfect match. When I presented him with this question his answer was disappointing but truthful.

Everyone has heard “opposites attract ” which is something I truly believe because in actual reality nobody’s relationship is perfect. I think if placed in this house I’d still gravitate towards the man I have chosen now. There’s nothing in this universe that says we will last forever, but at the same time I feel like hiring someone to find your “perfect match” is just as pointless as hiring someone to wipe your ass, trust me you can do it yourself.

The heart wants what it wants. What’s in a perfect match anyways? He likes corridos and I like blues, he’s family oriented and I…not so much. My point is I don’t think I would pick him out of a bunch anymore then he would me, I came to know and love the things that I love with time and I’m sure many of you guys do the same throughout your daily lives without realizing you did it, the fact that many of you have or had that one person in your class that you hated and the next thing you know your doing a project with them (by force of the teacher of course) and you’re practically best friends before you know it. My love and I are nowhere near perfect, but if I had to think about the things that create the bond between us I’d have to say in my mind and his it’s what makes us perfect. Good luck to the men and women on Are You The One, but I think I’ll take my chances with gods good humor and look for that “perfect one”on my own.
