And so here I am, the late afternoon light coming into the window with a glimpse of the sun which has been hiding for too long. Finally I have started my blog. I am no writer and I will just write as my thoughts flow to my mind, so bear with me in this new adventure.
They say women have to meet and kiss many frogs before finally finding their Prince Charming. Surely, I met many frogs. Over the years I collected stories and episodes that range from the hilarious to the tragic. And then I thought: there are just too many funny stories (well, funny in retrospect, but surely not funny as I was living them) not to record them at all.
The frogs in my life, as bad as they were, deserve to be known. I deserve to be known for putting up with them. My stupidity in putting up with them deserves to be know. More importantly, I need to make sense of it, and I need to know I am not the only one who wasted years and years over men which were nothing more than frogs, but that I strongly believed were my disguised Prince Charming.
I was 14 years old when I started looking for Prince Charming. More than twenty years later, I have some stories to tell.
But this blog is not only about my own stories. I want to hear from girls and women like me who have gone through years of hoping, wanting, cursing, screaming, being disappointed, but then hoping again.
Whether you have found your Prince Charming or you are still looking for him, you have stories to share.
This blog is for us - to share our stories, to laugh, to smile, to think that we are not the only ones to be stubborn enough to keep looking for love despite all.
I will post some of my stories, but yours are welcome as well.
I believe it will be a fun adventure.
Let's start!
