LOL FRIDAY: How's That?!?!

Myrtle Beach Real Estate by Mirela Monte: Real Estate Brokerage in Myrtle Beach, SC

There I was sitting at the bar staring at my drink when a really big, trouble-making biker steps up next to me, grabs my drink and gulps it down in one swig.


"Well, whatcha gonna do about it?" he says, menacingly, as I burst into tears.


"Come on, man," the biker says, "I didn't think you'd CRY. I can’t stand to see a man crying."

"This is the worst day of my life," I say. "I'm a complete failure. I was late to a meeting and my boss fired me. When I went to the parking lot, I found my car had been stolen and I don't have any insurance. I left my wallet in the cab I took home. I found my old lady in bed with the gardener, and then my dog bit me. So I came to this bar to work up the courage to put an end to it all, I buy a drink, I drop a capsule in and sit here watching the poison dissolve. Then you show up and drink the whole thing! But enough about me, how's your day going?"

Who Needs Prince Charming When You’ve Got Dopey?

Myrtle Beach Real Estate by Mirela Monte: Real Estate Brokerage in Myrtle Beach, SC

Is it any wonder that as women we have such misplaced expectations of the opposite gender? The notion of “Prince Charming” fostered by all the fairy tales we grew up with practically ensures “Relationship Failure” in adulthood.

Take Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs for example: Gorgeous Prince Charming just whisks by and gives her that magic kiss that wakes her up from the dead and they live happily ever after, or do they?

Where was Prince Charming when Snow White needed help? He was probably at the gym primping up…

As for me, I wish that Snow White had ended up with Happy, Dopey or Doc. Prince Charming’s enticements can only last so long; after a while, you are left with the substance of a man... His character, loyalty and dependability suit a girl a heck of a lot better in the long run than all of the Prince’s Charms…
