Ever since I was a little girl, I saw Cinderella and Snow White, and all I could think of or rather dream of was to someday be rescued by my own 'Prince Charming' in his shiny armour and be swayed off my feet. Well, however cliché it may sound now, deep down inside this is what all small girls wish for. But that was then.
Today, I do not feel the need for him anymore as I am married to a man who puts 'Mr. Prince Charming' to shame, and makes me feel like a queen every day. I can proudly say I am the luckiest wife of them all to have found him as he lets me be the real me and helps and supports me to make our lives a real fairytale.
So, if you ladies share my views for your own respective partners, I am sure you will relate to all the points I am going to talk of further!

So, unlike a prince who is busy grooming his horse and looking all fab, my man helps out with household chores and divides responsibilities equally. Staying in a nuclear family with no other help or support, this gesture of his is like a blessing in disguise for me and gives me some time off as well.
Not only for himself, but he is a responsible husband and father as well. I never have to stress about how we will get through difficult situations as I know he will always manage things well. He may not have a sword and a horse to fight through situations, but his responsible attitude and effective planning makes our life smooth.

Well, he may not wear shiny clothes and sing and dance with chores to show his love to me, but the little gestures he does are more romantic than a scene from any romantic movie. He knows how to keep the spark of romance alive even after so many years of marriage, and makes a continuous effort to bring newness and freshness to our relationship.
He knows I am a strong woman. I know my priorities and can juggle work and home really well, and he always encourages me for that. But, he also knows the days when I feel dull and low. He knows I just need a shoulder to rest on and a gentle ear to hear out my problems. And, he lends me just that!

None of us are perfect! Not you, not me and not anyone. But when married, you need to spend the rest of your life with someone; it is your responsibility to change certain things that your spouse does not like about you. And generally, it is the woman who makes most of the changes. But, my man makes an effort too. He loves me enough to let go of certain habits that he knows tick me off, and I do it willingly for him too!
Our marriage means the exact same thing to him as it does to me. So, it is not me who is trying to always make things right after an argument. He too, makes the effort to sort things out and think of ways we can avoid fighting on the same things again. And thus, by being a team we keep our marriage going.

Prince Charming might just add beauty, but my man adds all different flavours to my life. He takes me travelling, enjoys our shopping sprees, gives me time out to spend and chill with my girls, and takes care of our kid and takes his time out to chill with his group too. All this makes us happier people and adds colours to our otherwise monotonous life.
In any Disney princess story, the prince always arrives for a few scenes in between and in the end to kiss the princess and that’s about it. Imagine a husband who talks or shows up that less in your marriage? Well, I do not need to worry because although a slight introvert, when with friends or at home, he has a voice; a funny yet opinionated one. He has a personality that attracts people, and I love to show him off whenever we are out!

Finding a guy who actually values me and puts me first is not that easy. Taking my opinion in important life decisions, making sure I am comfortable, and being there for me always while having my back is what every wife needs.

While Prince Charming is great where he actually belongs- in the fairytale land, the real world is much harsher. But then again, finding your 'happily ever after' here is easy if you find the right guy, the one you were destined to be with and whose gestures put you up on a pedestal and make you feel like a princess. I know I found mine, and if you feel the same way, tag your husband and let him know that too!
