A romantic like me needs a princess to connect to, if only to make me believe the world is a place worth living in. It does not mean she rules me, just that a significant part of my daily life is aimed at making her life a positive experience just like it is for me.
On the other hand, I love looking at the cutting edge of our society and technology, and dabble in it to make life more fun. Helping others use that cutting edge to their advantage is my other main purpose.
