15 Girls That Found Someone Much Better Than Prince Charming

Traditional fairy tales taught many generations of girls the idea that a perfect man is someone who rides in on his horse to help a damsel in distress. And the dream of meeting their Prince Charming doesn’t go away, even when many of these girls grow up. But who needs a fictional book character when there are real-life heroes all around us?

Bright Side came across these 15 girls online that decided to not wait for some magic prince and are already happy.

1. “Last week my boyfriend was like, ‘I have a hangnail, let’s go get manicures...’ and of course I was surprised. But, okay, not gonna complain. This is why he wanted to get manicures!”

2. “My best friend was cheated on by her boyfriend, and my boyfriend bought her flowers just to show her that she deserves better than a cheater. Friends are also very important.”
