Growing up with storybooks and Walt Disney cartoons was much
fun. Every young girl wanted to be Cinderella because she was very beautiful
and fell in love with Prince Charming who held her close to prevent her from
falling. Who wouldn’t want a Prince Charming? He is every girl’s dream. A good
number of ladies need Prince Charming and apart from his looks, he must have a
pocket filled with golden coins!
Many women are caught up in this fantasy until reality hits
them hard. In today’s society most of our young women are not ready to settle
down with a struggling man. They need a "READY-MADE man" who owns a car
(a very important asset, a flashy one at that), lots of money as well as a
dream job. "After all, my friends have rich guys. I can’t be left
out." Well looking for a rich groom isn’t a problem but let’s be real;
what if Prince Charming doesn’t show up? Wetin
you go do? You go wait grow white hairs abi? The fact is this; you are not
marrying this guy for love. You are greedy. What if his source of income isn’t
genuine? What if he is a drug baron, a porn star or a disguised maniac? You may
end up a punching bag in matrimony and the riches won’t matter anymore, compared
to your happiness.
Babe, please calm down o. Riches are not the only forms of
wealth—virtue counts. Don’t worry about how much your friends will criticize
you for your choice. Your life and happiness depends on you, not them. Let’s change
this materialistic mentality. I’m not saying you should end up with a nobody
but marry a man with potentials, that’s hardworking and has a promising future.
Be hard-working yourself; stop waiting for a man to empower you. Gone are
those days. Move forward and stop waiting for Prince Charming . . . the
READY-MADE groom (him fit be Aba made o).
