Would the real Prince Charming please stand up

“When I was a little girl I used to read fairy tales. In fairy tales you meet Prince Charming and he’s everything you ever wanted. In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot. The bad guy is always wearing a black cape so you always know who he is. Then you grow up and you realize that Prince Charming is not as easy to find as you thought. You realize the bad guy is not wearing a black cape and he’s not easy to spot; he’s really funny, and he makes you laugh, and he has perfect hair.” -Taylor Swift

How true is this? While reading along, I pictured all the boys who this applied to. All the boys whose rude jokes turned into hurtful messages, the boy who didn’t value who you truly are or the boy who left you in your hardest times. Sometimes you have to open the book before finding out the pages have been torn and it’s all moldy inside. Looks can be so deceiving sometimes. It’s like those dark eyes are drawing you in. Trust me girl, I know the feeling. One day, the real Prince Charming will come a long and make you realize why you had waited so long.

PS. Just like you, I’m hoping that day comes sooner rather than later.
