Prince Charming - A Twisted Fairy Tale

I guessed by now you would know how fairy tales work. Prince Charming saved a princess with a true love kiss and they live happily ever after. However, have you ever wondered that Prince Charming is the same person in all these fairy tales?

Let me tell you a story.

Imagine this. Prince Charming met Sleeping Beauty in an empty caste. He thought that she had fainted and wanted to give her CPR. With the kiss, she woke up. She was so gorgeous that he decided to marry her on the spot. After they married, Sleeping Beauty was forever taking long naps. He never had the chance to see her. Then, he went on another adventure and found Rapunzel. They had fun swinging around in the forest. Again, they married. The same curse fell upon Prince Charming. He can't meet her because she took forever to comb her hair! Once again, due to loneliness, he went out of his castle for the next big adventure. Then, came Snow White. After marrying her, he realised that she once stayed with 7 other men under the same roof. He had trust issues and became a mad beast. Belle visited him because she wanted to save her father. They fell in love, and the rest is history! Belle was more in love with his books collection and decided to spend most of her time in the castle's library. Poor Prince Charming. He is forever alone

Prince Charming married the ladies mainly due to their looks or maybe he was obsessed with adventures. The princesses were just trophies. Sleeping Beauty and Snow White were supposedly dead. However, when he met them, he couldn't take his eyes off them. He even kissed the "corpses". He fell in love with them instantly when they woke up from the curse. Is he mentally stable?

There are so many red flags about Prince Charming.

He is good at charming all the ladies in town.
He kissed some of the ladies while they were unconscious.
He had hardly interacted with most of the princesses. How do they fall in love with one another? The correct phrase should be "they fell in love with each other looks."

Do they live happily ever after? I wonder. Well... on a happier note, at least these are fairy tales and not real-life stories. At the same time, I hope your childhood memory has not been tarnished.
