Fairy Tales and Dreams
Most little girls dream of being rescued from something (a horrible stepmother for example) by a knight in shining armor. Of prince charming slaying the dragon and carrying them off to his castle far far away. That one day their whole lives will change when they get their first kiss from their true love.
I never wanted all that. I never asked for it. And I sure as hell didn't get it. I knew the fairy tale life just wasn't for me. But I did have dreams of meeting a man who, while not perfect, could be my prince charming. Someone funny, thoughtful, intelligent, and considerate. I don't think that is too much to ask for. Apparently I am wrong.
Maybe I should have aimed for the fairy tale.

That's what I am thinking. If I set my goals a little higher next time, I should get closer to what I want.
