It's every woman’s dream to find her Prince Charming and live happily ever after. However, we’re so involved in finding the guy who we think is ‘right’ that we overlook so many things that are wrong about him.
For example; we meet a guy who seemingly matches our expectations i.e he’s good-looking, he’s nice etc. The fact is that because we’re so smitten over the guy, we refuse to acknowledge that we don’t actually know them that well.
This article will tell you about all the signs that indicate that your Prince Charming is more in love with himself than he is with you. I mean, he’s a Prince after all.

1- Everything is about him:
Sometimes you’ll feel like you’re not in a relationship with him because the only person he thinks about 24/7 is himself. He might put on a show as if you mean the world to him, but you’ll know deep down that it’s all pretend. Just to get you off of his back. You won’t get that genuine feeling of love and care from his side.
There might even be times when you think that it’s not him, it’s you. Like, you think that you’re the one who isn’t giving their all in the relationship. Here’s the thing, you found Mr.Perfect and now you can’t believe that they aren’t perfect. What do you do? You blame yourself.

Stop that right now. The more you convince yourself that you’re wrong, the harder it’ll get for you to get out of this toxic relationship. In fact, the more you flaw yourself and glorify him, you’re enlarging his ego.
Stop lying to yourself and admit that it isn’t ‘cute’ how he’s so overly cautious of his appearance or how you think it’s ‘sweet’ that he compares himself to major celebrities. There’s a certain limit to thinking about yourself, however, once you’re in a relationship you have to think of the other person or else the relationship won’t work.

2- It’s never your turn:
Here’s how a relationship works: two people who like each other express their feelings towards each other and from there on then, think of spending time together and maintaining that strong bond with each other.
If your boyfriend has a huge ego, then you probably sensed that he lost interest in the relationship. A relationship is one-sided if you’re the only one who’s putting in effort to make it all work.
Your boyfriend needs to pull his own weight. He needs to do the things which allows a relationship to grow and that involves listening to you and hearing your side of things, your feelings. Talking about feelings is a key part of making a relationship work.
Don’t listen to him when he says that he’s not ‘that type of a person’ who talks about his feelings. You want a second in the day where you can let him know about your troubles in the relationship. It’s not like you talk about everything in a whiny way. Without this, you’re back to the crush stage of things.

3- He criticises you a lot:
Nothing you do or say is ever perfect for him. Even though you’re smitten over him, he doesn’t feel the same way about you. You need to think twice before you take any step because you’re worried about what he’ll say. Will he like it? Will he say it’s fine? Basically, you’re handing over your ability to make your own decisions to him.
It’s not because you trust that he’ll make the right decisions either. It’s because you think that what he says goes. That’s what he wants you to think. That’s what’ll feed his ego.
You need to realise that if you entered the relationship by your own free will then you deserve the right to make your own decisions. You need to see that he’s not in a relationship with himself and that you’re a living, breathing person.
If something upsets you, say it. If something annoys you, point at it. If he’s being a jerk, let him know about it. Things can only work if both of you talk about whatever is on your mind. You shouldn’t have to keep shut up out of fear of what he might think about it.

4- He gets mad over the slightest things:
Basically, he’s either really happy when everything’s about him or really mad at you when there’s another person in the story. Not like you’re cheating on him or anything. He’s just really jealous over things even though he’s pretty boastful about himself.
You don’t have to put up with a guy who gets mad over the slightest things and is incredibly jealous over people whom you don’t even know that well. He’ll actively try to make it sound like he’s the best you’ll ever get. He’s not possessive, he’s controlling. You’re not the one who’s bringing up ex’s or anything, he is.

Conclusion:
At the end of the day, there are a lot of things to look out for in a guy. You can’t just think that because he matches your description of perfect, he is perfect. A first impression might be important but what’s more important is looking at all the little things. You need to stop overlooking the many flaws in the guy.
Prince Charming is less charming than you thought.
