Just maybe though.

Next time a girl says she's waiting for her Prince Charming, you should fill her in on the fact that in the first, original context that it was used, it didn't actually say "Prince Charming." It was miss-translated. The original text says that the Prince was charmed.

So what I'm saying is that if you're waiting on your very own Prince Charming, maybe you should spend some more time trying to charm some more Princes.

"Charles Perrault's version of Sleeping Beauty, published in 1697, includes the following text at the point where the princess wakes up: "'Est-ce vous, mon prince?' lui dit-elle, 'vous vous êtes bien fait attendre'. Le Prince charmé de ces paroles... ne savait comment lui témoigner sa joie". ("'Are you my prince?' she said. 'You've kept me waiting a long time'. The prince, charmed by her words... did not know how to express his joy.")
It has sometimes been suggested that this passage later inspired the term, "Prince Charming", even though it is the prince who is charmed (charmé) here, not who is being charming (charmant).
In the eighteenth century, Madame d'Aulnoy wrote two fairy tales, The Story of Pretty Goldilocks, where the hero was named Avenant ("Fine", "Beautiful", in French), and The Blue Bird, where the hero was Le roi Charmant ("The Charming King"). When Andrew Lang retold the first (in 1889) for The Blue Fairy Book, he rendered the hero's name as "Charming"; the second, for The Green Fairy Book, as "King Charming".
Although neither one was a prince and the first was not royal, this may have been the original use of "Charming".

It could be worse though. You could have the Dorian Gray kind of Prince, who ditches you (and then you inevitably commit suicide).

"Then, Oscar Wilde's 1890 novel The Picture of Dorian Gray refers ironically to "Prince Charming", perhaps the earliest use of the exact term. The main character, Dorian, is supposed to be a young actress's "Prince Charming", but he abandons her and in despair she commits suicide."

Honestly though, maybe if there were more girls that acted, or even looked, like Disney Princesses, maybe there'd be more Prince Charming's (the Disney version) crashing through windows and stabbing people for you.

Just maybe though.
