On most things I think we both try to.
Neither of us. I think the word implies a compulsive behavior. We are both thorough but know when to relax.
I think we both like things done well but understand perfection is hard to attain
Me it depends maybe sometimes and him OMG yes super perfectionist it's insane

I am, it's a major fault I have. She isn't. I'm learning from her that often things are good enough.
I don't believe either of us are perfectionists. Though we have particular things that we want perfect or near perfect.
His unending strength, optimism, and loving heart. I couldn't survive without those things.
I tend to be, at times. But he definitely is!
I truly am. Everything has to be a certain way in a certain order certain space go a certain way like all of that. I think he is when it comes to mine and his special occasions and relationship but not sure about anything else.
My partner is. I am on a lot of things
I think we both are, but only about some things. I'd say we strive for excellence.
I think we both get fixated on things, overthinking them and driving ourselves mad. I don't think we expect each other to be perfect. We do remind each other that we should be trying our best, while retaining that we are still human and can only accomplish so much.
i am. its not good. i have to do everything exactly perfect. then i give up & dont want to do anything at all.
She is when it comes to art I am with some things
Definitely agree that we're both perfectionists but only about things that matter to us. If it's something we don't care about than it's much harder for us to put in maximum effort.
