My prince charming would be handsome, kind and rich. (Honestly, he would have to be much like Prince Eric from "The Little Mermaid" to meet my standards.) I always believed that a man like this is out there and I still do, but I never thought that I was going to have trouble finding him right away.
I guess I don’t want to say that I have had trouble finding him, but I have made the decision to stop trying to look in every corner and hallway for him. For a long time, one of the first thoughts I had anytime I met a guy was, “Maybe he’s the one?” And I was more focused on that than I was on finding out who he was to notice some important things. I no longer want to be constantly searching and worrying because I am a firm believer that one day, when the time is right, I will meet and fall in love with whoever I am meant to be with. I also believe that if I continue to look too hard I might miss him, so I have decided to just let fate have its way with my love life.
Now with that said it doesn’t mean that I am completely distancing myself from anyone, it’s just that I want to be able to kiss less frogs to find my prince and not more. 1. I hate frogs (even for metaphorical purposes) 2. I would rather use the time that I would be wasting kissing frogs to do other things. I want to travel and experience so many wonderful things on my own first. I want to be able to know that I can comfortably support myself financially and not rely on the paycheck of another. I want to live out some of the dreams I have at the current moment and create new ones.
Sure, I think that it would be nice to experience some of those great things with another person, but I don’t want to wait for the other person to come into my life to experience them. I have great friends that will help me experience these things. I don’t need a man to have fun.
I don’t believe that I need to find my “other half” to complete me. I believe that I need to feel complete on my own and not feel the need of another person to do that. I need to be able to find happiness and confidence on my own. Of course I do believe that another person, your “other half," helps boost those things, but I don’t think I should feel as though I should be lacking in any terms because I do not have them in my life yet.
My prince charming is out there, but I think I can wait for fate to bring us together. I don’t have to have the companionship of another person to make me happy and complete. There is nothing wrong with any age that you end up finding your prince charming because there is no age set for falling in love. I just happen to be okay with possibly having to wait a while longer than most, because I know I can complete myself and don’t need my “other half” in order to do that.
