And here comes Prince Charming...

Little girls are told that their Prince Charming will come and sweep them off their feet and bring them the best happiness ever.

She was a little girl who dressed up in her favorite dress, the one with the pink fluffy skirt and the shiney bodice that zipped up in the back.  The tiara sits on her straight blonde hair and sparkle brightly.  On her feet are little slippers that are plastic, unlike the glass pair she read about.  She twirls around in cirlces and lets her skirt fly out from under her.  Squeals of delight come from this little girl.  She read the story of Cinderella or perhaps Sleepy Beauty or even Snow White.  The little princess invisions her prince charming, the man from Cinderella who chased her all around the city to find her or perhaps the one who met her in the woods?  All she knows is her prince will come one day.

The little girl left behind her pink fluffy dress one day and grew up.  She's in high school and had her first heart break.  She grew up thinking that a man would come and find her and that would be the best happiness ever.  She moves on and goes to college.  In college, she met more men, who in fact were more facinated with her blonde hair more than her.  She quickly notices that the men were not interested in making her happy but trying to get her into bed.  Instead of dating, she spends more time in the library.

The volumes of encycolpideas are overwhelming but she found the volumes and volumes exciting.  Again she reads again more historical stories of romantic characters.  She reads the story of Tristan and Isidole, Romeo and Juilet, Pride and Prejudice, and several others that are unlike her childhood prince meets princess.  Facinated with these new characters and romantic stories, a shadow walks behind her.  A voice speaks to her.  It tells her that th library is closing in a few minutes and to please make sure she had everything with her.  Sadly she puts away the books she borrowed and proceeds to leave the building.  Again the voice comes up behind her but this time, she turns around and faces the voice.

A handsome face and dark hair, he asked her to dinner.  Dinner turned into several more dates and then a million dates later, he asked her to marry him....  This is how she found her Prince Charming....
