Dalexis,
I usually stay in lurk mode but, what can I say, this one brought me out. A friend and I were having a similar conversation the other day and I agree it goes both ways! I know guys who brag about their ladies "keying" their cars and cutting up their clothes as if these are gestures of love! While women like myself who just aim to love and be loved are quickly passed over because my no drama policy is not in their handbooks. I also have many women in my world who are always looking for their "Nino Brown" so to speak. I am of the belief that it comes down to three key things....maturity, self-worth, and positive reference points. Sometimes a man or woman continues to scrape the bottom of the barrel because doing so requires nothing of them as far as growth. When you really find a person that exhibits stellar qualities that should make you want call yourself to a "higher" standard and I maintain the belief that many of us are emotionally lazy and don't want to commit to the "work" it takes to nurture a healthy relationship. We continue to whine about not being able to find people of good quality, however when those "good" people are presented to us we usually find a way to sabotage the relationship so that our song never has to change. That's just my take on the whole thing.
My motto is and always will be, getting an equally good man and woman in the right place at the right time with the right minds is nothing short of a miracle.

I wholeheartedly agree its one's character that determines whether they are good or not. Personal development is a must. However, it take courage / strength to engage in true personal development, for sometimes we have to admit some less than admirable things about ourselves. And the hardest thing in the world for some to do is to look into the mirror of our lives/characteristics openly and honestly.

I am definitely feeling everything you said! I always say to my friend "you are either going to grow or you're going to die" it's up to you to make the choice. We always get complacent in who we are and the moment we get a couple of pats on the back and somebody defines us as "good" than we go on permanent pause and think we're done forever and we wake up one day only to find what was once was good, even great is now mediocre at best! Even dwarfs were growing at some point, right??? Let me stop!!! I can go on with this subject all day........
