the idea of perfection.

I don't like it when people describe other people as perfect. It usually happens when they're gushing over somebody. This is my opinion but I just don't believe it exists, and if it does, then I feel sorry for that person. Personally there is only one thing that is perfect and that's God. Perfection in people, as I believe, is the point to which there is no beyond. They've arrived at the place that most people spend their time getting to, if that's what they want, and usually don't end up there. Perfection is a totality and not a part. Why would you want to achieve perfection? If life is all about learning and discoveries then where does perfection help? Personally, you'd be boring.
If my partner was perfect, I wouldn't want to be with him. I don't want to be the only person in the relationship going through faults, learning on my own and making mistakes because then i'd feel alone. Also, I believe the word perfect is a jinx. Once you say somebody is perfect for us, something goes wrong and usually it's because we've created this non idealistic view of this person and once they behave below that idea, we're immediately disappointed. It's almost similar to expectations. We shouldn't create any so that we don't get disappointed or bitter. With perfection, I believe that we shouldn't describe somebody as that because then we'll be on the lookout for faults and if they happen, often they do, then we're disappointed.

However, I believe that there is somebody who's right for you. I'm not cynical, I'm just realistic. Usually in our world, if something is too good to be true than it usually is.
