Prince Charming

I often hear girls say that Prince Charmings no longer exist.
I hear that men rarely try anything to win a girl's heart.
Chivalry has died. Prince Charmin disappeared.
HOWEVER, I believe that they are still alive.
Prince Charmings I mean.
I think it was those innocent, desirable Princesses who disappeared.

I guess what brought me to this idea had to do with something I heard in class.
This girl's phone was taken up by a substitute and the girl claimed it had been
something important.
"Wow, I had never seen a girl ask a boy out!" commented the substitute after looking
at the message (the girl told her to do so).

I believe that the reason Prince Charming has disappeared has to do with girls being too easy nowadays. We don't value ourselves like past generations did. We make it too easy on guys. If a guy likes us and asks us out we say yes and that's the end of it. No flowers, no great deeds, nothing is required from them.

In old times, girls were wooed. Their "admirers" visited their homes and sat in the family room to talk to them. They might have taken a walk through the garden. They brought flowers and expensive gifts. Those times, women seemed more like...I don't know. Just not as easy as they are nowadays.

My mom always told me that if a guy really loved me, or wanted me, he would have no problem coming to my house and speaking to my parents. If he valued me, he would never think twice about making me happy. She's right. As much as I wanted to think that a guy didn't need to suffer to deserve, well...I was wrong.

Needless to say that now I am determined to make the next guy do everything to get my attention. I will most definitely not make it easy. If he's my "one" he will have no problem stepping over hot coals just to please me.

Now, hold on. Don't think I'll make him do all this in vane. Oh, no. You see, I have a lot to offer. The day I fall in love, I plan to give it all. I want to take care of that person. To love him, cook for him, take care of him, and most importantly...please him. I will make sure he is the happiest man on earth. So, in order to gain all that, a man will have to win my heart. It won't be a matter of materials, but actually...of thoughts. I won't go for the man who buys me expensive jewelry because he has extra money...I will go for the one who buys me a flower with the little extra money he gets left. One who will feel honored to make sacrifices for me. =]
