No longer believe in fairy tales

In the children's literature class, the teacher played the movie version of "Snow White" in the class.

Fairy tales such as Snow White, Cinderella, and Sleeping Beauty are stories that have been read when they were very young, but after more than ten years, they can still blurt out the content of the stories. This kind of memory is a supposed belief without any doubt. Believe that a kind-hearted heroine can always defeat evil, meet the destined prince, and live happily together.

However, when I watched the movie today, when Snow White woke up under the prince’s kiss, and the white horse sitting on the prince left with a happy face, my mind was like this: How did she know that this person must be a genuine prince? Instead of a liar? He is just a man who is riding a white horse, dressed well and has only one side. How can she dare to believe that he will follow him?

GOD, I was shocked by my thoughts in an instant.

I discovered for the first time that I no longer believe in fairy tales. Although I still yearn for the ending of "living happily together", I know that this is just a beautiful vision. When did I have the fear of questioning marriage; when did I become disdainful and bored with men; when did I become suspicious of the true or false of love? If all is just a beautiful mistake, I am grateful for this love.
I am only a 21-year-old girl who has experienced a simple love, but I have lost my faith in fairy-tale love. I feel a little sad for my reality.

When the ending was staged, there was no prince and Snow White on the screen, only an open fairy tale book. It said the conventional ending-

"...and they lived happily ever after." At

this time, there was a burst of laughter in the class with only four boys, and the girl next to me said to me: "It's another ending. "
I know, I am not the only one who no longer believes in fairy tales.
