We all know the story about the frog that turned into a prince, which Disney made into a movie called, The Princess and The Frog. This story has a lot in common with how we date today when you really start to break down the pieces.

I think that we, as a population, often chase after ‘the fixer uppers.’ This means that we are attracted to those who we think we can change in order to make them our version of perfect. This could be anything from how they chew to how they treat their parents. I have done this time and time again; I found a guy with potential, thought I could change him, and ended up heartbroken because it turns out I couldn’t. You can’t change people.

Now, don't get confused by this. You trying to change someone and you brining out the best in someone are two totally different things. If you found a guy who treats you like the princess you are and has decided to better himself not because you told him too but because he wants to... hold him tight. This doesn't happen all that often.

So, you might be thinking, how does this relate to The Princess and The Frog at all? Well, The Princess and The Frog is a fairytale, and a fairytale is defined as, “a fabricated story, especially one intended to deceive,” and while I’m at it, deceive is defined as, “causing someone to believe something that is not true.” In other words, this will not happen, it just won't. He isn't going to change and you will not find your prince if you didn't think he was worthy in the first place.

Although we aren’t actually going around kissing frogs (I hope), the background remains the same. The princess kissed the frog, and he turned into a prince. This will not happen, people. Not in any shape or form. You will not find your prince by digging through every “maybe he could be the one if he did this differently,” if you want to change anything about him, he is not the one. So, with that being said...just don’t kiss the frog and keep on looking.
