Is there some small habit your spouse does that really irritates you? And then to make matters worse when you tell them how much it bothers you, they still do it? It can really be frustrating sometimes to live with someone under those conditions...But LOVE does not demand perfection from one's mate. There are some things that your mate either cannot or will not change. These I am calling imperfections. They may not be moral in nature but are simply things that you do not like.
In marriage you will discover things that you do not like about your mate. The first course of action is to request change (If you can change, why not do so? It is a small matter to make your partner happy.) However, I can assure you that there are some things that your mate either cannot or will not change. This is the point at which " love accepts many imperfections." You decided where the point of acceptance will come.
We all need to remember there was only one who is perfect. The rest of us need grace forgiveness and understanding. We can assure you that whatever "imperfection" your spouse has that irritates you today won't matter in eternity. So, rather than spend trying to change them into what you want them to become, accept them, learn to live together in harmony.
