Ladies and Gents, are you the romantic-type?

Asked by Jude (32204points) January 18th, 2011

Romance is a big deal, for me. It is so big, it’s “uuuge” (silent “h”).

It has been three years now and my girlfriend and I are both so damn romantic. It is wonderful.

How are you romantic?

I don’t know if I’m all that romantic in that kind of traditional sense (roses, dinner, blah blah) but I know that we do really cheesy things for each other all the time (he writes about his love on napkins he puts in with my lunch and I write about my love on the mirror in the bathroom after shower…we do a lot of random stuff like that).

I’m really not.
Romance isn’t in my nature. Never has been. I’ve never felt like I was missing out on anything, and it hasn’t posed any problems in past relationships. I think it’s sweet, I love witnessing romance. It just isn’t really for me.

My boyfriend and I have become more romantic as the years have gone by. We used to be very matter of fact about everything and a lot less gooey! Nowadays, we are much more romantic and have no problems with public displays of affection anymore. I love this and I think it’s what I secretly wanted out of our relationship but was happy to wait until he was ready and not push him into being romantic.

Yes I am.

As a girl, I was never romantic, not a bit. As a man, I am old-fashioned and romantic. A proper English gentleman.

I have to choose my times. My girl likes to pretend she’s tough and above that stuff, so if I overdid it it would not mean anything. She eats it up when I hit it right.

wilma's avatar

Only to a point. I don’t over sugarcoat or mush it up.

On a scale from 1 to 10,10 being to most romantic, I am probably a 2.

lemming's avatar

Ya I’m Romantic. I used to trouble myself with reading things like ‘The Grapes of Wrath’ or philosophical stuff that would make my head hurt. Now all I read are Mills and Boon!

chyna's avatar

Yes I am, when the right person is around.

partyparty's avatar

Yes I am an incurable romantic.
@Cruiser I love the chintz curtains really I do, but I would have to send my SO this

Cruiser's avatar

@partyparty Now THAT screams romance!! Nice

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@partyparty Ah the way to a man’s heart, his guitar.:)

Austinlad's avatar

Hopelessly.

Neizvestnaya's avatar

Yes I am and happiest when I’ve got someone to welcome, appreciate and return my squickiness. My partner and I are luckily similar, we look at each other to be the sidekick for every great thing we’ve ever done and want to do again as well as things previously unfulfilled. It’s a great ride.

Sarcasm's avatar

Not in the slightest. I have no idea how to be. Must stem from my lack of imagination and lack of emotional intelligence.
I see other people do romantic things and I think the acts are so ridiculous and lame, but then the other person always seems to think it was the best most sweetest thing ever. Have I ever mentioned that I don’t understand people at all?

kheredia's avatar

Nope.. not at all.. I’m almost more of a dude than a chick.. I’ll take a great sense of humor over romanticism any day.. that’s why I love my boo.. he’s just sooo funny and I love it!!!

Scooby's avatar

I’m usually romantic on the weekends only! :-/
I always sleep on the wet patch…..

partyparty's avatar

@Cruiser @Adirondackwannabe Yes my SO has an ongoing romance with his guitar(s) :-)
