Can a modern woman be a princess? Can she find a prince? Have our fairy tale role models led us astray? Is there some truth couples can live happily ever after? Or could it be that we are all so jaded that when a good one comes along, we refuse to kiss the frog on the off chance we might get slimed?

Your thread made me laugh.

Great expose of words.

I can only say to you at this moment dear Princess, keep your feet about you and never mind about the slime that tries to catch your feet on the stepping "logs" across life's stream......

Thank you! How sweet! I have stepped on and over a few slimy logs in my life. Nice reference to the photo, by the way. Clever...

The fairy tale lives. And is strong and willing. But the knight in Shining Armour doesn't travel as far as he used to.

And what we all fail to realise if you want your Knight in shining Armour to keep being your knight in shining armour you have to keep sending him out on rescue missions. If you stop him doing that he stops training for the next mission. Much like 007.

Hmmmm that part I find hard to make a monogamist relationship from. If he keeps rescueinng Damsels He will end up like the fonz.
Cool for him but probably not what she wants.

There is the Fairy tale about the rose coloured glasses. And like Sun glasses you just have to know when and when not to wear them.

If she finds the right guy he will treat her like a princess. But could she handle the pedestal and the constant worshipping from him.
For the life of a Princess is a very prestigeous position. beer

I married a toad once. Trust me, you don't want to go there. The waters are dark, deep, and full of leeches. Stick with the frogs....

I thought that was very well-put, Smalltown.

I think fairy tales probably don't work terribly well in real life, if they're taken literally. But I believe they contain a large grain of truth about how romance works. I'm not sure I want to attempt to define that "grain" at the moment.

The main challenge, I think, is to separate the fairy tale elements that aren't realistically achievable (for example, the person who perfectly fits you in all ways or has ever conceivable desirable characteristic) from those that are (someone who has many good qualities and is fairly compatible).

There is also the question, which in my observation is relevant for many here, about whether what we're looking for is a romantic relationship, as opposed to pretending that's what we want; that is, making the quest -- the fantasy odyssey -- for such a relationship, and not the relationship itself, our main goal.
