The myth of perfect love
Fairy tales, films, and books often instill false expectations in us. The prince and princess live "happily ever after," but no one talks about how they agreed on who would cook dinner or deal with difficult periods. I also expected that the relationship would be magically perfect. But every time I encountered difficulties, I began to doubt: "Maybe this is not the right person? Maybe true love looks different?"

Understanding Reality
Gradually, I realized one simple truth: there is no such thing as perfect love, like in books. Love is not about endless harmony, but about choice. It is the work of two people who learn to accept each other with their shortcomings, learn to compromise and grow together.

The most amazing thing is that giving up expectations of "perfection" made my relationships much deeper and more sincere. I stopped expecting my partner to guess my thoughts, or that we would never have arguments. Instead, I began to appreciate the little things more: kind words, support in difficult times, and even honest conversations, which are sometimes difficult.

Why is this good
Realizing that there is no perfect love brought me freedom:

Freedom from expectations. I stopped idealizing my partner and began to see him as a real person - with his fears, experiences and aspirations.
Acceptance of myself. I realized that I myself am not perfect. This helped me to be more open and honest.
The depth of the relationship. True intimacy begins where illusions end. We are not trying to be a "perfect couple", we are simply trying to be happy.
Result
Ideal love is a myth. But this does not make love less beautiful. It is real, alive, sometimes complicated, but this is what makes it real. Do not be afraid to lower your rose-colored glasses - behind them there may be happiness that you have not noticed before.
