Hey I'm glad I am not the only one that doesn't get it.
I understand being content but what is being "complete"? As long as we are are living aren't we striving for something?

I think if you expect someone to complete you, you are putting a huge burdon on another person. Also if you hold expectations you are basically setting up your relationship for failure as no one can fill every single expectation or know what you need at every moment. I believe in a healthy relationship, it takes two complete ppl to make it work.:smile:

I don't think being in a loving relationship is a need to feel complete. It is natural.

"DO-IT-YOURSELF" COMPLETENESS...
You have to be willing to "complete" yourself. You can do this. If the person you eventually find is considered to be he/she that "completes" you, imagine the gaping, bloody hole in your heart which will result when/if they are suddenly gone, SINCE YOU HAD NOT FIRST "COMPLETED" YOURSELF?
It seems that one doesn't find love...love finds you.
Comments?
Yes I do agree Love finds you :)

You'd have to think you needed someone else to "complete" you and make you a "whole" person. Which I don't believe; I think other people add to your life in good or bad ways, they don't make it or break it. So my answer is no.

I've heard it said that in order to be happy, ones' life should be multi-faceted, like a diamond, and one of these facets will likely be the care and feeding of a significant other.
I suppose there is some facet out there one can add to the "diamond" which might, in part at least, cover for the absence of a significant other.
Were a "significant other-facet" be a requirement in order to complete this diamond, then this facet would be missing...
therefore, a missing facet means no "diamond of happiness", eh?
We may each possess such a subconscious need for a significant other to such an extent that we will choose one without even realizing it.
Is there a subconscious significant other for each one of us? One person who we see on a near-daily basis, who makes our day?
Or, a person we converse with via mingle2.com who "makes" our each and every day?

If you do not bring a complete person to the relationship in the first place you are almost guarenteeing failure.

Happiness is a state of mind, it is not provided by others. Others can be an influence to happiness by being positive in their own lives but they cannot provide it for you.
