At the end of this reading, the question that we, as readers, are posed with is; "Did the tiger come out the door, or did the lady?". I think that no matter what comes out the door, the princess will still lead the suitor to unhappiness. The princess will either pick the door with the tiger (which means he will be killed instantly) or the door with the lady (which means that he will be forced to be in love with another woman). This lady is who the princess really hates and who she thinks the suitor has flirted with before anyway.
I think the main of this story is that there are chances you take to try to get happiness. Either he will be eaten or he will be suffering hardcore or fall in love happily. There is really no way to say which one will happen because of the way the story ended, but life is full of choices. For example, you can either pick a tiger, be eaten and not have to worry about going through any more obstacles in life, or you can pick a door with a lady that you do not know much about and you may fall in love with someone for the wrong reasons.
I am not a big fan of this story. I think it was somewhat interesting, while it was too long just to leave us with basically a “cliffhanger” ending and leaving readers to make our on choice on the ending.
