I'd never settle.
Can you say more, StanT? I'd like to hear a guy's take on this.
It' s not like you can take out a checklist and have a significant other built to order. Real women (and guys) are unique individuals with flaws and ideosyncracies. Loving someone in spite of (or because of) their flaws is what I meant.

As much as I may have wanted a rich, super model, nymphomaniac as a partner, it wasn't going to happen. I'm not sure I'd call marrying my middle-class, attractive, nymphomaniac wife, "settling". I'm a lucky guy.
