If you were a little girl like me, you fantasized about one day finding your prince charming. I saw fairytales like Cinderella and dreamed about finding a nice guy to sweep me off my feet. It wasn’t until I was older that I changed my idea of what prince charming is.
Sure, having a strikingly handsome guy is great, but that gets old fast. After a while, you’ll be left with a good-looking guy, possibly good-looking kids, and a lack of self-esteem. The problem that I have with Cinderella is that it a man only constitutes as a prince charming based upon his looks. However, I have a different reality.
Any modern day woman can tell you that the sexiest thing a man can do is help. If a man willingly washes the dishes, mops the floor after a hard day, or comes to my aid when I’m feeling down, he instantly becomes my prince charming. Sure, putting on a nice suit, a button down shirt, and a nice smile are great things to look at. But trust me, picking up a broom can do the trick too.

Good stuff – more men definitely have to realize being a “real man” goes above and beyond going to the gym and watching football and grunting at the gym.
It’s great to see women like you who hold standards for what they want and know they deserve in life. Don’t compromise your value for anyone, as I’m sure you have no intention of doing anyway.
All the best,
