Prince Charming

Prince Charming burps. Prince Charming farts. Prince Charming even swears. Prince Charming doesn’t always smell of sexy cologne. Sometimes he plain stinks. At times, Prince Charming won’t want to talk much after a strenuous day at work. Sometimes when Prince Charming doesn't talk, there's actually nothing going on in his brain. He isn't thinking of you, the argument you had 23 days ago or the new Audi R8.

Prince Charming is not a machine, and hell, even the best of machines break down and require updates. He needs his Wii time. He unwinds by screaming at the TV, watching two grown men beat the shit out of each other. Sometimes Prince charming can’t pick up your hints. Don’t be angry at him because he doesn’t live inside your mind or when you say you’re okay, he actually believes you. Sometimes Prince Charming wants to hear you say “I love you” instead of saying it first. Prince Charming may not be as emotional as you’d like him to be but he’ll let you in more than anyone else.

Prince Charming raises his voice when he’s angry but give him a break; you go through your bitchy moments too that may or may not involve a tampon or sanitary towel and a dozen chocolate bars. Prince Charming doesn’t always say the right things because, believe it or not,your relationship isn't based on a Freddie Prinz Jr movie script. Prince Charming attempts to provide logical solutions to any problems you may have. It’s his instinctual method of helping, even though you only want him to listen. Ask him to merely listen. He can’t help it; all men subconsciously compete with Superman.

Prince Charming can’t save you or fix the emotional trauma your parents inflicted upon you. Prince Charming can't erase the memories of you being bullied because you still kept your "puppy fat" in High school and still had your "puppy fat" at your graduation ceremony. The Cinderella story is a lie. He can hold your hand but can't walk instead of you. Learn not only to stand on your own two feet but to run too. Oh, and by the way, Prince Charming isn’t really a prince. He’s just a man who loves you.

  1. how can you stand him? he is a vile human being and you seem like such a lovely person. He is the personification of hatred and evil (maybe not EVIL but something close).

    You seem so smart, caring, sensitive. I know love takes over, but really? Maybe he's different in real life than online.

    This thought has been bugging me for ages.

    (I'm also assuming mr Prince Charming is ABIT/ultra blue or whatever)

  2. You see certain sides to him online. There are multiple sides to a person, especially someone like him. He's a sweetheart when he isn't being an asshole. :) And yes, it takes someone with a certain sensitivity to understand him or get him. Maybe that is why I am right for him.

    We've been inseperable since the day we met. There's a pull between us that I can't explain... Love doesn't make sense sometimes. So even though there are things I can't stand about him, he's the most adorable man in the world to me.

    Anyway...Who are you? Have we talked before?

  3. Nice! This has to be one of the finest pieces I've read in a while. Your words speak the depth and the emotions you have for your imperfectly perfect Prince Charming. God bless.

  5. Imperfectly perfect meaning, this young lady finds the flaws in her Prince Charming, beautiful. Read her post, but also 'listen' to her thoughts / emotions. It's beautiful.

    Anyhooo, what does this "-_-" mean? I'm not well versed with on-line signage..

  7. -_- is supposed to express the "what the heck" or the "I'm not amused!" look.

  8. It is the Im not amused look. Squinting, almost closed eyes.
