Finding Mr. Right

How many times have you felt all alone? How many times have you thought that finding the right companion is the only way you would feel better about yourself? How many times have you actually sought out to find your Mr. Right?

Most of us love this phase of life. You are on your feet, on the chase of Finding Mr. Right. And if you find him, you feel complete. You have now fulfilled your purpose in life.

Let's assume you have found him. Day by day, you learn more and more about Mr. Right. How he walks, what he likes to eat, which movies he prefers to watch, etc. But on days when the sun isn't shining so bright, Mr. Right could also start feeling like Mr. Wrong. He never listens, he is in his own world, he is not the person he used to be... Maybe he wasn't Mr. Right to begin with!

Hold up! What just happened here? How did things take such a sharp turn in just 4 lines?

Every time we chase for something, it seems to lose value after we acquire it. Unfortunate as it may be, this seems to apply to people too. What made you think the same person transformed into someone else, after you found him? In most scenarios, he was and has always been Mr. Normal to begin with.

Ask yourself this question, who is a "Mr. Right"? Is he right for you or for everybody? Is he a certain stereotype that you have in mind? Is he even real? If you go on the lookout for Mr. Right, doesn't that mean you already have some preset qualities you are looking for? Are you going to force-fit that into the next man who comes your way? Or do you plan to wait for eternity until such an ideal man appears in front of you?

And when the said ideal man did appear in your life, how long did it take for him to transform into Mr. Wrong?

Why can't we just make things simpler: Mr. and Mrs. Normal lived happily ever after!
