Pick your sh*t

A great piece of advice from a friend's father went something like this:

Don't pick the guy you like, pick the one whose faults you can cope with and handle because that is what you will have to put up with and deal with.

The things you like about that person will become irrelevant over time and less important than how you build your relationship with another flawed human being.

So basically, pick your sh*t. That's what you are going to have to clean up for the rest of your relationship together!
