I think, like many people, you've built up this image of the perfect person that simply doesn't exist. I think that this is very much a sign that mentally, you're not ready for a relationship. The perfect guy doesn't exist. At all. Every guy has a fault. I think you'd be better off alone, just focusing on your own life until you have a clearer idea about guys. You need to spend more time dating, more time with numerous guys (just as friends), so you understand us. I don't think you have the experience with guys yet to be able to commit. At this rate, you'll end up just stringing guys along and being disappointed. You need to move on from this one and spend time dating and making friends with other guys.
Spend time understanding us, and you'll find Mr Perfect as you find him, not as you wish him to be.
