Has anyone out there worked real hard to get a person and then realize that it was the trying that kept you going? Once getting the girl/guy of your dreams, you realize that it was all a big fantasy?

All the time. I tell myself I learn from each new experience what it is I'm looking for, but the next one never seems to be any closer to a lasting relationship. Maybe its us?

That's why it is important to really get to know a person. In fact I'll argue that a contributer to the increase of divorces is how society places expectaions of apprearance before a persons personality.

This is either "love of the hunt."
or
While your ‘hunting’ you are after an idealized version of the person, and once you ‘catch your prey’ you find that they cannot come close to your vision.
