Cinderella Syndrome

As much as i hate to say this,
But i think i have the cinderella syndrome.

Just like every kid who grows up consuming disney's fairy tales,
i believed that there will be a prince,
saving me from my screwed up life,
the knight of shining armor.

I consumed the cinderella, snow white and sleeping beauty fairy tales.
There is no fairy tale that portrays a working girl, trying to fight this life,
having mouths to feed and going on with her life.
I think that the ultimate hapiness is to be with the prince,
and my happiness is his happiness.

Even daisy duck and minnie mouse didn't play any significant role but to be the spouse of donald duck and mickey mouse.
And so, what role did i grew up to achieve?
house wife, a spouse.

And what happens when i found my prince?
the fairy tales didn't say anything about their life besides the happily ever after ending.
they didn't say what happens when the prince cheats,
or when cinderella becomes fat during pregnancy and being hated by the in-laws.
or when they have naughty kids.
What?
What does happily ever after means?
Living in a castle with a prince loving you forever.

Sadly enough,
Even an educated grown up like me still dreams of achieving the fairy tale life.
Just when I should have the ability and capability to differentiate between fairy tale and real life.
Sigh..
I still live in this dillusion.

And believe it or not,
Hollywood still produce this same fairy tale,
And so many women still consume it.
That would mean that I am not alone.
Look at the viewer of Joe Millionaire, the Ugly duckling, and all Hollywood dramas.
Women are trying to be princess.
And to win the heart of their knight of shining armor.

How do i get rid of this syndrome?
