Ever since I got divorced I found myself looking for perfection. I quickly notice the imperfections in all the guys I've met so far, and although I know I am not perfect myself and I am most likely jeopardizing this whole thing I can't stop. Has anyone felt like that? How do you stop being so F picky?
Well ... after you look long enough for the Perfect Prince, you will realise that you need to lower your expectations, and start to look for a less perfect guy who is acceptable on many (but not all) levels. You would have to make some compromises, since I am sure, no one would think you're a Perfect Queen...
I think your own keyword "unreasonable" answers your question.
I think picky is good, unreasonable is not.

How long does it take to notice these imperfections? .... I.E. straight away, first/second date etc etc?
I'm just seeing if you're give these blokes a fair chance or if they are instantly dismissed.... Thank you

BTDT. After 11+ years with a 5.5-6 I was determined to pull 7-8+. That quickly changed as I noticed the 7+ guys I was pulling were f__kboys, jerks, etc. Not at all worth it.
I'm still attracted to what I'm attracted to, but I've taken a break from dating. My very good friend (with major benefits, but we are still very close without the benefits) is a 9 in my eyes and treats me very well.
After being married awhile, one realizes Prince Charming isn’t always so charming (and neither are the princesses). Second time around, you know what you really want in a life partner. If that's being picky, I see nothing wrong with that. Just don’t expect to find perfection. Nobody’s perfect.

Been seeing more and more of that Bob Marley quote lately. LOL.
In terms of the OP being picky, was she always picky??? If not maybe this is some kind of byproduct of the pain and loss that a divorce causes.

Are you in HS still? I don't know any adults in real life busting out rating scores for people. LOL.
Also it wasn't looks that were the real issue - there were plenty of actual problems. And yes, I sought out to find guys without those issues.
