1) I often advise people in romantic doubt that everyone has their flaws. You're not going to find the person without them and if you did, you wouldn't want them. The trick is not to decide that you can overlook the flaws, but to decide that you choose this set of flaws, that you can love the person with these particular flaws and you can commit to those flaws making you a little nutty for the next fifty-odd years.
2) I once screamed at Jason, during a fight, "You love me because I'm emotionally open!" With chagrin he admitted this to be the case.
