Search Results: cheesy romantic lines

So many people say that they want their SO to be their best friend but, if their best friend says "Hey, let's try to be more than friends, we often hear that cheesy line: "But I don't want to lose you as a friend." That seems to result in an automatic "urge to kill" for some of us.

Sometimes, of course, it is a transparent excuse that your friend uses because they don't want to say, "But. . . I wouldn't have sex with you if you were the last guy on the planet." But, sometimes, I think people legitimately think that they want to hold on to the friendship and not take any chances.

If you already have developed sexual or romantic feelings for your friend, can you simply ignore those feelings and remain in a purely platonic status? Ladies, will you be okay with hearing your guy friend talk about the new girl and how cool she is when YOU want to be the one at the center of his universe? Guys, how will you handle it when she inadvertently says something that reveals she spent the night with the new Mr. Wonderful? "How can she fuck that jerk?" you think to yourself. Girls, do you want to be there to receive an invitation to his wedding and watch him walk down the aisle with someone else?

So, what do you do when you develop feelings for a friend? I think the friendship probably isn't going to continue if your feelings are rejected or spurned, so why not just go for it because

a. if you lose the friendship, it was probably going to be lost anyway, but

b. if you go forward and start dating and it works out, isn't that the best of all possible worlds?

Have you ever been in this position? How did you handle it?

So, if I wanted to recreate myself in the Sims 3 or similar, the immediate first trait I would put on is "Hopeless Romantic" ("Hopeless romantics passionately seek their soul mate. They want romance, true love and surround themselves with cheesy romantic television and novels") just because I believe that I do engross myself in things I stumble across that *clicks* to me as great romanticism.

Case in point, I am pretty ignorant sometimes of mainstream music. Even great known songs that reached number 1 on music charts aka this specfic song, Perfect by Ed Sheeran. I have heard small parts of this song but never knew what it actually was or heard it all the way though. Well while I was at a job interview site, they had the radio on and I actually heard this song all the way though and was able to look it up. Next thing I know, I am emotionally attached to this song, having these intimate romantic daydreams of me and my wonderful girlfriend in a cute dress slow dancing under the stars on the top of a mountain to this song. I loved how much in detail certain lines of lyrics just *clicked* to me and how he sung it to engage my intense feelings of romanticism.

It makes me wonder, if you're a hopeless romantic out there, is it easier, harder, or similar to get emotionally attached to something you stumble upon?
