DH,
I thought I had found that perfect love in my High School sweetheart. We got married right after school and the first year was great. It went downhill real fast after that and ended up in divorce. The only good thing I can say about that relationship is that I have a wonderful daughter from it. I stayed single for 12 years after that and never really had what you would call a serious relationship. One day I met the woman who is now my wife at a chance meeting at one of my jobs and we've been happily married for over 13 years. I know inside we'll be together forever.
When it comes your time for real love, you wont have to go looking, it'll find you. Have patience. God that sounded sappy as hell...
Nobody's perfect, but you sound pretty OK to me.
