Musing

Finding a partner is like shopping.
We start out with a few basic conditions: 

• It fits;
• It looks good;
• It's within our budget.

When we finally find something that meets all our criteria,  do we buy it ? 

Some might. 

They walk away happy.
Some don't.  

They think, "What if, there's something better for me ahead? Fits better,  looks better, more vfm? I can always come back later for this if it doesn't work out. It would still be here."
They walk away. 

They search, but end up not finding something better. What looks better might not fit.  What fits might not be within our budget. 
Let's go back to the first shop, they say.
Alas when you head back, it's no longer there.

Hopefully, you don't lose second best to indecision and greed too.
