People want to know who you are . They want you to be honest about your imperfections . So they can turn away from you , if you're not perfect .
People just want to be happy, and do wherever they're moral compas force them to do. No one want to know anything about us, they want to know that they are better, richer, smarter... they have no interes in us, just in their feelings.
I'm pretty much down for anything as long as you're not a Trump supporter, I have some values.
Please redefine "anything", becouse with the normal meaning, your thoughts sound kind of incoherent.
@AnggelloDlivio by the time you're my age you're a million throws of the emotional dice. You can expect some deviation from the"norm". It's when deviation turns pathological, as in Trump supporter, that a person has to be mindful.
@clarkatticus great answer, i like how you make sense after been challenged. Tnx.
@AnggelloDlivio didn't seem like a challenge
I have so many, so I try harder to accept them in others. Nobody is without imperfections. A few of mine: I am not a great driver and my parking is realllllly bad. Parallel park? NO. Also I’m stubborn. Picky with food. I procrastinate. And I hold grudges.
But, I am truthful, loving, loyal, have few true dealbreakers, and I’m an excellent cook.
Amazingly, I say these things early but folks are still shocked when they show up at some point.
I prefer "traits" to perfection/imperfection. Any two people will have a multitude of traits, compatible or not. A relationship can form if the weight of compatible(or unimportant)traits exceed the incompatibles.

If that were true, no one would ever be in a relationship...heaven knows I have tons of irritating flaws, habits, ideas, etc....I don't consider them "imperfections" but all of those things that make me who I am...that includes everything from things I can't control, like surgery scars, little boobs, no eyelashes, etc. to being a neat freak, talking too loud, being nosey etc. that I choose to ignore...tough shit...it is me...
I am sorry that you have encountered people who expect "perfection"...there is no such thing...just the fact that they expect it is imperfect in them, not you...
