Wanna come? I am waiting!

When we are little, everything makes us think that life is a happy-ending story. The cartoons we see on TV, where the prince marries the princess and they live 'happily ever-after', as well as the multitude of stories invading our minds about how the good characters defeat the evil forces and save the planet from destruction, induce us the idea that life should be as long as great.

As we grow up, however, we become more aware of the fact that life is not a fairy-tale. Nowadays women are not innocent naïve Cinderellas, as men are not prices charming. Finding a mate to suit us is not as easy as it was presented to us in our childhood.

We are forced to learn, in time, that people have both qualities and DEFECTS. Yes, defects are exactly what awakens our awareness on the reality of everyday life. We live in an imperfect world, made up of imperfect people and imperfect relationships. The happy ending is harder to achieve than heroes do in cartoons, but the battle for happiness is definitely worth it.

I want my prince charming! Is he coming soon?! I am waiting for him!

Above all the things that change dramatically as we grow up, there seems to be one thing that persists in time. Some women wait all their life for prince charming! Some are lucky and find it, others drown in the bitter taste left after kissing too many frogs. For some other women, every man is a "prince charming" as long as he drives an expensive car and has a thin wallet.

We want real women, not weepy little girls!

Men nowadays do not look for Cinderellas, but they seem to appreciate some of the moral qualities Cinderella had. Being a good housekeeper, ironing shirts without burning them, cooking and being able to deal with house chores does not fit the nowadays image of some women, more interested in their fake nails and in going shopping with their materialistic friends, than in sweeping, mopping and wiping away the dust.

Leaving the few exceptions beside, why do you think both genders get disappointed in the end? Is it because their high expectances or because of the fact that people nowadays generally have sick guiding principles? 

I would love to hear your opinion!
