She'll be seen as a romantic in her upcoming film 'Valentine's Day' but in real life actress Jessica Alba does not believe in the notion of prince charming.

The 28-year-old beauty married husband Cash Warren back in May 2008 and has a 19-month-old daughter Honor with him, but clearly their relationship isn't all peaches and

cream, Cosmopolitan magazine reported.

"There's this mentality that you need the big dress and the big day, the day every girl gets to be a princess. I didn't agree with any of that. This tradition of obeying your husband like he's your king? It's a load of crap. Love and honour, yes. But you should love and honour yourself too, and all your friends," Alba said.

Alba admits she had a hard time agreeing to get married and was not comfortable with the idea initially.

"I had a hard time because I feel like its been warped. Originally, it was two families coming together to make a stronger family. It was about survival, not love or soul mates. And now the way they market marriage even as a kid through Disney movies is that it's all about Prince Charming sweeping you off your feet," she said.

"I chose to get married because, essentially, you're given a deck of cards in life. The hand you were dealt with is your family and you can't choose them," Alba added.
