My wife likes to watch the bridal dress shows and I swear, almost every woman wants to be or look like a princess???

You are not special, and you don't just deserve something, so I just don't get it.  NOT ragging on women, I just don't understand, and it sounds kind of stupid to listen to.  

Is there a reason?  Thanks.

I know man, I was so depressed because every fucking day I'd come home from school, and what was on TV? He-Man, Masters Of The Universe. I was extremely skinny and here's this guy who has muscles on top of his huge muscles, all my friends had those toys and it just gave me unrealistic expectations about how my body was supposed to look like. I couldn't understand why I didn't look like the He-Man action figure. Hell, even the Skeletor action figure was ripped. A fuckin' SKELETON had more muscles than I did!

I sank into a deep depression, turned to drugs, and tried to kill myself twice. I finally got therapy and was able to get past the unrealistic expectations that HeMan and Skeletor put on my young, developing mind.

Oh wait, no that didn't happen. Because I knew they were just fucking toys.

Not sure if serious...

If you are serious, here's a news flash..... Girls like to play with barbies and dress up as princess', boys like to run around and pretend to shoot things. Yes, there are exceptions but this is the norm.

Wearing a pretty dress on a very special day creates false expectations? Should she wear a feed sack instead? Or perhaps some sloppy, grubby sweats?

People traditionally dress up for weddings. Men wear tuxedos. Women wear pretty dresses. Guests typically dress nicely. It's not like she's running around wearing princess dresses every single day or demanding to be called "your highness."

After my now ex wife cheated on me, I was an idiot and dragged things out for about 2 months trying to see if there was something to be salvaged. It was obvious to everyone that something was really messed up, but I'm a pretty quiet person and keep my roubles to myself mostly. I had told no one what happened, and I had no plans to.

Well we were over at my mom's house, and it was driving her nuts that she didn't know what was going on. To be honest, I was being a real asshole to my then-wife, and Mom was fuming about it. Eventually she took us both aside and said "Dbrad197, I don't know what's going on, but I can tell you how to start fixing it. Every girl needs to be treated like a princess. You aren't treating her like a princess, and you need to be."

The smug look on my ex wife's face made me furious. So I responded casually.."fuckin bitch cheated on me, so fuck her. Maybe whatever dudes dick she is sucking this week can treat her like a princess."

Wish I had a mic so I could have dropped it as I turned around and left them on the porch. In retrospect I seriously regret using that language in front of my mom.

Anywho, back on topic....OP, men have fantasies about threesomes and war and exploring shit, why worry about a woman's fantasy. And if being a princess is her fantasy, I say fuck it let her have it for just one day.

What I would liked to have heard was your moms responds when she turned and faced the dick sucker.

I butt dialed my EX during our separation and said to a coworker she wasn't worried about germs sucking some dudes dick last week. (She wanted to come over and use my washer, instead of a coin laundry ). The EX called me and I had to damage control so our dissolution wouldn't fall apart.

Back on topic.  As normal as boys playing with sticks as swords wanting to be knights.

+1.  The princess is basically the ideal job for a woman.  It is the top of the social hierarchy without being burdened with age and responsibilities like the queen.

Yes, there's a reason.




There's a reason you want your upper to match the lower, or your wheels on your truck to be sufficiently cool & shiny.




It's all the same reason.
