Imagine that you were strolling though the tolgay wood one day and happened upon a magic bunny caught in a trap. The bunny looks up at you and says that if you will free it from the trap, it will grant you a very special gift. The offer is this:
You will meet the mate of your dreams and for one year the two of you will have Perfect Love. This relationship will start out amazing and only get better and better every day. For this one year the two of you will know only bliss and your love will grow stronger and stronger. Until finally in the very last minute of the very last day of that year, it reaches the Ultimate Level of Love. The bond between you two will be perfect in every conceivable sense of the word. In that moment, Ultimate Joy and Peace will be yours. But, at the end of that last minute, the instant the year is up, you will drop to the ground: dead.
So, do you take the offer and know the true meaning of the word Love, even if only for an instant?
Or do you snap the little bunny's neck and have it for dinner?

I've known true love for 23 years. So I guess I'd take option 1.

You know, you could take both options. The deal is to free it from the trap, there is no clause about not then turning it into yummy stew to share with your perfect mate.

Or do you snap the little bunny's neck and have it for dinner? Hey, that happened to me! Only difference is, at zero hour, we got married.  But anyway... nah. I'd take a longer life and the less-than-perfect-but-still-damned-good marriage I do have now.
