    Years ago, when I was living in a larger city (mid-sized city), I did a statistical calculation of how many women I would need to meet in that city before I found one who was compatible, based on several factors and demographic data of the city. I don't recall the exact number, but it was about 4-5 times larger than the number of women living in that city at that time.

    Since then, I settled with someone who wasn't right (though I should have known better) because I thought we could make it work. That turned out to be a very bad idea. From here on out, I won't even go on a first date with someone who is incompatible on at least 1 key factor. I figure that I would rather be alone and happy than hitched and unhappy.

    Smart!

    And you may want to add, someone who knows their mind. I just ended a 10 year relationship because he changed his mind on two key factors. But I had a good 10 years together so it was worth it.

    In my case, the 2 years together was not worth it at all. I have only 2 hard deal-breakers, and I ignored it because I was desperate. But, that is different than being on the same page for 10 years and then breaking up when that was no longer the case.

    If only.

    Here, I'll give you both bacon and a donut, because I'm generous like that.

    Clearly we all took the advice from the MFP forums to 'just break up'
