Are you waiting for your "Prince Charming"?

Well, I am

I want him to be handsome, strong, tender, loving, caring, a gentleman, and loves me so mcuh

What about you?

 

Hopefully one day I'll meet Mr Right...and hopefully he won't already be married!

 

I want someone with whom I have chemistry on an emotional, intellectual and sexual wavelength. Hopefully spiritual as well but as long as there's no pressure to change I can deal with not clicking that way.

 

i'm not looking. i've found mine.


i know i'm young, but i love this boy more than anything.

 

Yea that pretty much sums me up.
Nah im messin' lol

 

I've found mine
He means everything to me.

 

"Prince Charming" is an evil myth that leads women to have unrealistic expectations in romantic engagements.

I don't want no stinkin' prince charming fairy tale.

But, I have found a quite wonderful man who is real and fallible, but always willing to work through our problems instead of expecting some effortless "happily ever after".

 

Anyone familiar with the show Into the Woods? All sorts of fairy tales woven together... and Prince Charming is one of the characters. One of his lines is: "I was raised to be charming, not sincere."

Hopefully you can find one who's sincere, too.

 

thanks! exactly how I feel! I was dumped basically because I did not fit the prince charming characteristics. Its a very small demographic though: zero... she basically admitted to wanting perfection in the relationship as well. I said "there are always bumps in the road when in a relationship" and she said "no, i don't want ANY, sometimes there aren't any!". <have fun with that. all relationships have problems...the real important thing is how you deal with them/get past them.

than again, my gf I am with now loves me to death so its kind of neat to see myself as someone elses great guy.

 

found mine, but he's charming because he doesn't try to be

 

If you also don't want him to defecate, vomit when his stomach is upset, pick his nose when he got boogers, stink before he takes a shower, have weaknesses and insecurities, financial, Oedipal, and many other kinds of emotional/existential difficulties...don't waste your time.

Furthermore, if all you're willing to do is "wait" be not surprised if you don't find anyone at all.

 

the best way to have a flawless relationship is to find a young, hot girl who with little personality that you can mold.

 

meh..prince charming is plastic. i dont want plastic...i want deep. laughter, sex, exploration, creation, synergy, synchronicity, philosphy, food, tears, play and love.

i think everyone here deserves no less!

and i dont like the idea of "waiting"...why wait? be happy now, with or without a relationship. have all of the above with yourself...you shouldnt "need" a significant other.

 

THERE is a woman after my own heart! Men are not plastic material objects, they are not ideas, they are not cartoons or movie characters... or magazine covers. They are people... with their own needs. And they haven't been put in this world solely for the purposes of conforming to some silly, idealized grocery list of attributes that women, given to romanticization, put down on paper.

To the starter of this thread, whom I imagine to be quite young, I should say that if you're really interested in developing a human connection with a man, you're going to need someone who's worth his salt. And men worth their salt are, indeed, quite offended by the notion of "prince charming", whatever the hell it means. And they won't be positively inclined to women who just wait around.

It is time for women to be independent of men, emotionally and materially. And it is time for them to be able to actively pursue their desires, even if initially they face stigma from men and women who've been inculcated with macho ideas. The times will not wait! The feminist manifesto...

 

Glad to see people are shunning this idea. 'Prince Charming' is an expectation no man can realistically live up to. They either run a mile, if they hear it as a requirement or their soul dies trying to be the hero they're not. Far too much pressure. It's also quite a juvenile fantasy.

 

I've found mine.

 

I surely want to find a life partner......... a woman that is very compatible with me. Yet, I'm having a very hard time.

Example......handsome is relative......

>>>>>> strong------ compared to what? A powerlifter or what? I'm strong for my 135 lb. body weight, litterally, but I'm not the fantasy guy that women typically imagine. The other requirements are character traits = choices. I can't choose to be more handsome.

Yes, my post here is a little rediculous almost, but I felt like getting something off of my chest.

What fair is fair though, I want to be physically, emotionaly, and intilectually attracted to my mate also.

I just want to rant right now. Thanks for listening!

 

2 weeks later boredom sets in...

 

while I disagree with the notion of prince charming most (99.9%) people are rather forgiving by nature and will accept human shortcomings even if they claim to desire prince charming.

a lot of younger girls have their own personal prince charming desires and sometimes that does indeed include quirks and shortcomings. sometimes a quirk or shortcoming adds to their own model of perfection, to make it more realistic. I think PC could very well be more flexible than some give it credit for.

just playing Devils Advocate.

 

well, what the lady is saying is not very hard, believe millions are like that.

it used to be called "Prince Charming", call it now "Soul Mate", what is the difference really.

Notice that she did not mention a white hourse, still make that a white Honda
