I think you have to be complete within yourself. If you are lacking in something fundamental (I'm talking about things like self-confidence and compassion not athletic or cooking ability) you cannot expect another person to fill in that gap. A partner should complement you, not complete you.
Don't beat yourself up, a lot of us have given someone another chance (even knowing that history repeats itself). Watch 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind'. It is about knowing someone is going to break your heart again, but going along with it anyway, because you just can't help who you love.

Judge, no, but I believe everyone has an emotional reaction or forms an opinion when they view a picture (whether it is accurate or justified is besides the point). Opinions change with more information, once you get to know someone's personality, it can mean the difference between finding them attractive or repulsive.
I agree with a lot of what you said. People are brainwashed to keep the status quo, keep up with the Joneses, or whatever. Most people are up to their eyeballs in credit card debt because they think they have to have everything, that they are entitled to have the newest car, electronic equipment, designer clothes, etc.
It is harder to date (but easier to be single). When I was in my 20's I had no problem meeting 'guys'. I made a lot of good friends in my 30's but was my social life was very much centered around my daughter. Now that I am (maybe) ready to have another relationship I have a hard time meeting anyone who isn't either married or too young or old.
I haven't actually dated too much since I had my daughter. When she was really little I could see how easily she got attached to people. After dating one man and us getting to know his kids, it didn't work out so I decided I wouldn't be repeating that scenario any time soon. Now that she is older, it isn't so much of an issue.
