One of the things I find funny about people is that the traits we seem to think are unique are actually far more common than the ones we think of as common place.
The difference is, you have to search for the uniqueness in some people while others are rather blatant about it.
I don't think that "The one" is a single person, rather it's more liken to the metaphor of an "office position" which is held by a deserving person. Sometimes you see someone and know right from the start that they are right for the job. Other times you need to interview rather extensively and get to know the depths of their personality before that uniqueness is revealed and sometimes... you just have to hire someone and give them a chance to grow into the position.
That sounds a lot more cold than I intended it to, lol. You get the picture though. I think the only way you can "Miss your chance" is to deny the uniqueness of the girls in front of you by being preoccupied with someone who is now unattainable. It's OK to have standards, but if you hold every girl you meet to the same rigid standard, you'll never find uniqueness because you're already closing yourself off to it by doing so.
