I've always been of the opinion that yes there is a perfect person out there for you, ie the right person for you is out there, but it doesn't mean they're perfect (because nobody is). Normally seeing Dr. Phil (just the name alone annoys me!) makes me turn away, but for some reason I was reading this, and it's turned out quite interesting:
"What's a soul mate? It's just a term somebody made up, and with it comes some pretty mystical expectations. I've long believed that if you're looking for that perfect partner you're making a big mistake. If you can find an 80 percent fit and hope that you'll grow together on the other 20 percent, you'll find happiness a lot quicker. You wait for a 100 percent partner and you're going to be looking a long time, maybe forever. But if you're okay on the core issues -- children, careers, division of labor, religion, handling in-laws -- then you jump in and handle the other things as they come along." Read it here.
