Well, my problem is the ladder theory. The best listener I ever knew was a man I never imagined dating. But we did. For three years. He was my best friend and I learned more about myself with him than I can say.

I think that the best place to look for love is usually right in front of you. The person, for whatever reason, you haven't connected with romantically, that is in your life and has already seen you at your worst is a very good place to start. They already like you - flaws and all. Maybe there is more there than you initially see.

The ladder theory is only useful for those who lack the wisdom to see this truth. And people that lack wisdom are probably not the ones you want a long term relationship with anyway.
