Hmmm, REAL good question, Anthony
I think it is hard in todays society to find the perfect mate, we now live in a disposable society.
As people evolve, and needs change, it is sometimes easier to just say ah fuck it it was a fun ride.
Or heaven forbid hard times befall a relationship and then it seems so many people are willing to find it easier to go out on their own again and re start .
I think that what a person looks for in a perfect mate now, may change drasticaly in 5, 6 , 10 yrs etc...
and familiarity always breeds complacantcy as well so I think the only way to know is to ride the ride and be true to yourself, as well as caring for the partners needs/wishes as well
almost like a party, it is not possible to tell if it was a success or not until it is over.
