Oh Prince, Where Art He? (4)

Posted under: Relationships
Feeling like I can handle my life, feeling as if I’m finally worth the things that I deserve.
I know that lately, I may have come off as superficial. I joked about finding a man who had money and would take care of me. I joked about finding a man who I could easily dispose of. But what I really meant to say is that I know that I finally deserve someone better. Honestly, I don’t mind too much if he’s not wealthy, but I do want to know that I can be taken care of, because for once, I don’t want to feel as if I need to take care of him all the time, especially financially.
I’ve decided to create a new resolution, one that doesn’t necessarily need to start on the first of the new year. I want to be in a relationship that is worth my time. I don’t want to settle. I don’t want to find someone who’s not what I need and nothing like what I want. That means no men who can’t commit, no men who condescend me in every other conversation, no men with whom I feel no connection.
Every woman deserves the man that she deserves. Whatever her dream man may be, that’s who she should strive to find. If she wants a prince, she should find a prince, not a toad.
As for me, I want the prince, the knight, the savior. I want someone who will open doors for me, but will allow me to do my own things. I want someone who’ll make me feel special everyday by the little things he says. I want someone who’s going to take the time to think of me because I’m important enough to him for him to do so.
Now, don’t think I’m a selfish bitch or anything. When I fall for someone, I do many things for him. I send smiles; I take care of the little things so he won’t have to worry about it. Not to toot my own horn, I know that I’d make an awesome girlfriend. I just now need to find me an awesome boyfriend, one that I won’t be settling for.

When you fall in love, a toad will like a prince(ss)… at least for a while. That’s love.

Good luck. That’s what everyone deserves. It’s cliche but true — the harder you look, the harder it is to find. Live your life, do the things you are passionate about, and do the things that bring you joy. The SO will be there when the time is right.

That’s right hon! You do deserve a great man and you certainly shouldn’t settle for anything less, even though great men are hard to find. I’m sure you’ll find someone better now that you have your standards set. Raise the bar and don’t let anyone limbo under it!

You are on the right track. When Ken asked me to marry him, I refused because I didn’t want to go through another divorce and I told him that if we ever did marry, he would have to commit to working through problems and issues because I was not willing to invest in another throw-away marriage. He finally convinced me that he was willing to do that and a year later we actually tied the knot. That was 26 years ago. Not too bad for a couple of old farts
