Settle or Wait?

It's the Eternal Question isn't it: Should I Settle for what I am getting or Wait for the the perfect one?
On the one side, we have to compromise on our expectations and be a little unhappy, not fully satisfied... We will still have companionship and the love of another. We will not die alone.
On the other hand, we will have to wait till we meet the perfect one. We don't know when that day comes. We don't even know if it will come at all. We might live a bitter life. We might not have a companion, a testimony of the life we lived. We might die alone.
It's all romantic to believe that one day he will come, that one day we will be with that one man who will love us the way we want him to love us. It's more romantic to wait for him. But it is still bookish, too theoretical. It is extremely rare... How do we know that we're not expecting too much? How can we say if we're not being too uptight?
Is it just better to be practical and be with the man who is the closest to our dream man? Isn't it easier? But it still is an eternal curse of sorts... Cause we will still be sort of unhappy with the settlement.
I don't know. I really wonder. Is it wrong to want it all? Is it wrong to be unhappy if you don't have it all?
