‘I Had It All Wrong!’: 24 Things Women Thought They Wanted in Their Life Partners, and the 24 Things They Realized Actually Mattered

Let's be honest, we all spend a lot of time thinking about what we're looking for in our other halves. And how could we not? From childhood M*A*S*H to manifestation mood boards, we've been told that the clearer our vision is of our dream guys or gals - down to the freckle on their left cheek - the higher the chance is that they'll come straight to us. But what happens when our extra specific lists don't actually have what we were looking for? Or, rather, what if what we thought we needed was actually all wrong?

Don't you worry, it happens to the best of us! In fact, we'd be happy to bet that it's happened to every single one of us. Because sometimes, and let's cue the dramatic music here, the most beautiful things in life are the ones we didn't even know we wanted. They're the happy surprises, if you will. So curated here for you, are what 24 women had to say about the dealbreakers they had and the wonderful partners who proved them wrong. Or, in some cases, the disappointing ones who changed the game. Who knows, maybe it will help us reevaluate our own.
