It was really weird realizing that love isn't enough. I don't know when it happened but all of a sudden I started looking at a guy in the sense of "will he be a good husband?" or "will he be a good dad?" Right now, date whoever you wanna date. It's not like you're marrying them in 6 months. But when it comes time that you do want to settle down, at least you know you CAN see those bad and good qualities and not defend them like some people do.
