I think the idea of the "wrong person" for me is more like... I could date someone & have something come between us, but while it clearly doesn't make them the right person, I feel the "wrong" person for me is someone that causes me a significant amount of pain/emotional distress, not just immediately but leaves a negative effect in the long run.
For instance: dating someone for 6 years that repeatedly chose drugs over me....wrong person.
Well yeah...the whole causing of pain/emotional distress is definitely a criteria for being the "wrong" person.
I suppose the whole point of my entry though is that I have come to realize that normally if there were circumstances that were preventing two compatable people from dating, I used to just dismiss any possibility. Now I realize that those circumstances don't make it an impossibility, it just makes them "the wrong person" but also I've learned that being "the wrong person" isn't always a permanent thing because, as I said, circumstances can always be tweaked.
Not to say that your point wasn't valid, cuz it definitely was, I just guess that my ideas and conclusions I drew from this post may not have come through as clearly as I had hoped. Or maybe you were just commenting on a tangent that is very related to my post. Either way =)
Also, I think that I'm kind of complicated in the fact that I need someone who's thiiis close *makes pinching gesture* to being the "wrong person", and who I will fight incessantly with, and who will seem severely & irreversably screwed up & wrong for me.
Because that, as sick as it is, is the "right person" for me. God, I digust myself.
