We all know there are many players out there and is difficult to find your soul mate, for me at least.

Have you ever went on a date with a guy hoping that the frog would become a prince?
What happened then?

I went out with a guy last month, good-looking, with a good job, but extremely cocky. I thought this little detail could be changed with time, but the guy was a pain in the neck. I couldn't stand him showing off the whole date.
I realized that frogs only become princes in fairy-tales. LOL

As a child I was taught fairy-tales, such as Cinderella and Prince Charming. In my subconscious, I was expecting a prince to come along and rescue me. What guy could live up to that standard? Should people have more realistic expectations in dating?

I always went with the first impression. If I don't feel that the guy is appropriate for me in the first conversation, then there is no way I will be hoping that it will be better the next time, as there will be no change whatsoever. Frogs don't become princes in the real life - and bad dates never become better as the time goes on. They are just a waste of time.

I think everyone has kissed a frog, but I like to look at it as a lesson learned. We wouldn't be who we are today without all of our experiences, whether good or bad. Kissing a frog means you're that much closer to finding your prince.

A friend of mine always says you need to kiss a lot of frogs before you get your prince...I just think she is being a bit of a player!

As I have gotten older, I have realised that looks are not actually that important. Many good looking guys tend to be cocky and far too self assured.

yes, you are right, I am trying to change and become less cocky.
It is difficult though.

I like that positive attitude. My only rejoinder is that you don't have to keep repeating the same mistakes to learn a lesson. So hopefully, after a while, you'll be able to discern if someone is a frog before you get to kissing him

I'm glad that a lot of the women here are being realistic when it comes to dating. There's absolutely no such thing as a person to come and rescue you. I remember someone wanted me to kiss them, and I wouldn't even kiss him on the cheek.

Sometimes, we tend to think like we are in a fairytale. Moreover, as we get

matured we have to be more realistic, guys. So now, do you now still believe

with soul mates?

You have a very nice thought. I definitely agree with you, abeja_reina_1989. These frogs are not just frogs that passes by. It somehow leaves something for us. It maybe something good or bad. Anyway, we should be careful then. Some frogs are contagious and some are deadly. Do you agree?

I have also met many boys in regard of my marriage. But still nobody impressed me. I have faced this " kissing to the frog" many times. Every time I go to meet the person that now this person will be my soul mate. But found it all a wastage of time. On the other hand I would like to say that you really can not understand a person in first or just one meeting. it takes time to understand a person.

I do agree, yes. It really depends. Sometimes a frog is what you need at the time, or think you need. Then, you realize it's time to move on

I kissed some frogs and all of them remained frogs. So I agree with ButterflyEs. The first impression is important. So important that you can sometimes rely your judgment on it. Yet, for me it's simple to judge our date. If I feel comfortable being with the person, it's a good sign.

Everybody must have had a bad experience or two. How else would we learn? Trying to change someone is not a good idea. If you don't like the way they are it is time to go.

My thought on this.

Before you expect the frog to become a prince,
just look at yourself and see if you are a princess.

Great thinking!! I like that!!!

I have a chicken , two frogs & a cat as pets. & as far as i remember i kiss them all.

^ hahaha this made me laugh.
anyway, I think we need to kiss a few frogs first before we find our prince. this are all parts of our experiences in life and this will be a learning process for us.
but a few woman are lucky that they would find their prince and would never need to kiss a frog

Isn't it a little harsh to be calling someone a frog? Maybe the ones that we reject the most fervently are the ones that are the best for us. Beauty in a boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse isn't everything because it rarely lasts.
