Compatibility: Beyond Perfect Matches

The person you're truly looking for isn't a "perfect match," but someone willing to navigate many trials and tribulations with you over time

When faced with conflict, some people quickly conclude, "we're not compatible," and rush to break up. In reality, however, they might simply be habitually avoiding problems and unwilling to solve them. Others, conversely, turn these differences into opportunities to get to know each other better, ultimately growing closer.

I believe that compatibility isn't about "never arguing," but about "wanting to be together after an argument."

Love isn't about finding someone exactly like yourself, but about learning to understand and respect each other's differences, even when you are profoundly different. What's truly terrifying isn't arguing, but rather indifference and a lack of concern.

The person you're waiting for is someone who, even after a disagreement, can still make up and hug you. This is the most precious source of security in a relationship.
