You probably would find something else to make yourself dissatisfied with them, wouldn't you? Too many times we choose to dwell on the "negatives" we find in those we love, instead of looking for all the "positives. " That's just our picky human nature.

That person may have all sorts of other problems in their relationship. There is no perfect relationship and more than likely you wouldn't want to trade yours for theirs.
