Being incredibly fussy and particular

More than a decade ago, I purchased a dinnerware set from Sainsbury's. Unfortunately, the majority of the cereal bowls in the set have since broken. During recent years, I have been on the lookout for some new cereal bowls. If I get behind with the washing-up, which happens a lot, I am not averse to using mixing bowls, food containers, or whatever else I can find to act as a substitute cereal bowl.

My issue is that I can be too fussy and particular for my own good. In addition to the shape and style of a cereal bowl needing to appeal to me, it also has to feature a design that I like AND be microwave-safe. My quest to invest in some new cereal bowls feels impossible, as I just cannot find any that tick all the right boxes for me.

Do any of you experience the same or similar issues? I don't mean with cereal bowls specifically, but with anything.
