I’m not certain you’d know the right sort of man for you if he arrived on our doorstep riding an elephant.”“ I would think the elephant would be a fairly good indication that I ought to look elsewhere.

About This Quote

When people are looking for a partner, they often look for someone who is very different from them. Someone who is very different in terms of looks, age, experience, status, and location. Someone who has the qualities that would make them different from them. If you are looking for someone who is completely different from you, you are probably looking in the wrong place.

No matter what you do, you will never find anyone who is entirely different from yourself. The best thing about relationships is the fact that two people are able to learn from each other. You will never be able to find someone with whom you are so similar that no progress can be made through this relationship.

Sometimes we all need to feel like we have found our soulmate because we feel so very alone. However, no one truly knows their soulmate and it is not possible for anyone to know their soulmate well enough to know if they would be a good match for them.
