Cinderella without Charming & Simran without Raj
I am here to seek the answer of the question we all are asking.. Where is the fairytale male? The male that was promised to us, whom we loved and manifested our whole lives? From Cinderella to Simran every character told us to believe in that male, his existence and we religiously did.. we did believe that he is real and would appear when we need him the most.. But unfortunately the only thing that came when we needed the most help was some more trouble.. After countless meditations and mindless swiping, here I am, at 27 still waiting for the one!
Is the one ever gonna come? Or should I just give up? Why did no one write the story of a Cinderella who did not find her Prince Charming or the Simran who did not meet her Raj?
What would her life like? What would she do? What if the Fairy god mother never came? What if Cinderella never lost her glass slipper? And Simran did not go to her trip? What if her father never said "ja simran ja.. jeele apni zindagi"?
I think Cinderella would have finally left her toxic house and her toxic family to live on her own.. She would have started a small bakery somewhere near the town, don't know why I just feel like she was a great baker. She would have made some friends who laughed and joked about their sorrows on the evenings over tea or wine perhaps.. She would have become what we all call an 'Independent Woman' or as Instagram likes to put it 'Boss Bitch'.
And Simran, well I think she would have had a much more comfortable life in Punjab, India.. The food is better and she could have had chole bhature whenever she wants.. She would have been the perfect trophy wife or as Karan Johar likes to put it Fabulous Lives of Rich Husband's Wives..
Anyways I think this story should have been written by Shakespeare or someone, to let us know what happens when the fairytale male does not arrive. Should I focus on my career alone when honestly I am a bit lazy and that one extra mail from office just kills me? Or should I marry a rich guy and be a trophy wife when I am not pretty or dumb enough to be a trophy?
Usually these thoughts keep running on the back of my mind whenever I am doing normal life stuff like working or crying. And then sometimes they come to surface usually when I see someone very dear to me getting hurt in love.. its almost always a fictional character from the series I am currently binging. I just can't see fictional characters get hurt because they aren't stupid like real people, if they don't have a chance then how can stupid real people like us shield ourselves from heartbreak?
Judge me all you want but I feel that Cinderella and Simran would have managed just fine without Charming and Raj with some therapy, manifestation, Mandala Art, and occasional heavy drinking..
Couldn't have expressed it better!
