Joe and his two sisters had their primary education in a very prominent private school in town. Joe was one of the best in his class and this attracted a lot of friends to him, both males and females. Joe's brilliance in academics begin to grow and the love he got from teachers and students grew greatly as well. He became more attracted to girls because he was from a wealthy home and was also doing well in school. He became every girl's dream.

Early in his secondary school, he started having affairs with girls but never fell in love. He was just playing along because of the pressure mounted on him by his female friends. He made love to different ladies in his secondary school days and was just happy with it. That was how Joe keep living his life until he finished his secondary education. He later gained admission into the university and graduated with a second class upper degree in Engineering.

Joe started working in a very big company and was really doing well. After spending his entire adult life happily having affairs with different women, Joe finally decided to settle down in life. He started looking for real woman, a life partner, a lover, someone who could be his everything, a soulmate and someone to be in deep relationship with him.

So, he decided to search for this unique and special lover. He had so many women to chose from among his old friends, coworkers and schoolmates. However, he was only looking for a woman with great qualities, but none of his friends was with what he was really looking for. So, he kept on searching. Almost at a point he has already lost hope of finding her, he finally found her. And she was his perfect woman. He was really happy because he knew how rare it was finding an ideal woman. He was really happy with her and told her that she's the one for him. He also concluded that he's not searching anymore.

But that's not how the story ended. As days, weeks, months and probably a year after he realized that she was not a perfect person. In fact, she was far from being perfect. She had a lot of issues such as trust and sell- confidence. He started seeing their individual differences and started to have doubts about her, himself and everything about the relationship.

He started to reasoned within himself on how to validate these doubts so he could be sure of what he's into. So, he decided to subconsciously test her. In order to test her trust issues, he started going out with friends (some of his guys) who were still single just to prove that she had trust issues. He set her up in some occasions just to see if she could do something silly. This continued for quite a long time.

As he continuously tested her, she was in a confused state and failed more and often. Joe became convinced in his heart that she was not actually the perfect woman he thought she was. Joe compared her to some of the ladies he had dated in the past who were more confident and willing to have something nice to do with him. He concluded that she's no way better than them.

At this point in time, Joe was in a confused state and couldn't figure out what's best for him. "Should I continue to be in a relationship with a woman who I once thought was perfect for me now that I just realized she is not ?" Joe thought as much and asked himself. She even lacked some good qualities he had once found in the lives of some of the women that came into his life before. He was wondering if he could return to his former lifestyle of jumping from one relationship to the other. Joe couldn't continue the relationship and ended it for the good of his sanity.

It was quite difficult for both Joe and his girlfriend to move on because they a little bit deep in love. It was the best decision for them since they were not compatible. So, they finally moved on. She sees reason why they shouldn't be together just as he did. It was all a new start of life for the both of them.

Joe later met with his old school friend who became his ideal, perfect, soulmate and true companion in life. They got married shortly after their relationship started and lived happily thereafter. Joe's ex-girlfriend also came to the wedding and was really happy for him. She also got married to the man who sees the real woman in her and they also lived happily thereafter.
