Some people have done it. Some people have suggested that I do it. What is "it"? Marrying someone you don't feel passion for. Basically, settling. "You could have married 'so and so'; you would have had a good life with him." That's what they tell me. Having been in a relationship or two without a lot of chemistry and feeling what a struggle it was, I know there is no way I could do that for the rest of my life.
I came across an interesting artice on this topic recently (link is below) and the line that summed it up for me was: "When it comes to finding the love of your life, settling for Mr. (or Miss) Good Enough is a recipe for dissatisfaction, if not disaster."

Take away lesson: Know yourself and decide whether or not the wait is really worth waiting for. Be honest with yourself about whether or not you can endure a life without passionate love.
