Definitely! Sometimes it can even be a problem, coz when I'm dating a girl exclusively, I wanna spend all my time with her just goofing out together, drinking nice wine, making love, people watching, teasing, etc. But then I kinda forget things like taking time to myself for working out or advancing my career. So I end up short on money and packing on some extra pounds and suddenly she finds me less attractive, so in the end I kinda have to step away from the romance in order to ultimately keep it from fizzling out. But I'm a romantic for sure, that much won't ever change lol
OF course!! Classical education, and knowing Shakespeare, and the Sonnets, and good wine, food, and so much more to share! Sadly, SOOOOOOO many ladies, today, don't know these things, and don't bother, or care, with the "Romance," of old, and taking her hand, on stairs, or taking her coat, and adjusting the chair? For many, it seems "SEXIST" now, when it was just an elegant way to respect a Lady, in times past. So much has been lost, with so many forcing their ideals on society. A few of us, remember the elegance, of the past, and those things live on, with the Ladies that appreciate those things. . .
Depends on the person I'm with. It's either I'm really into someone or not into them at all. If i really really like someone, then I'm insanely romantic. I'd want to cuddle, hold hands, do all the silly romantic things that couples usually do. Tbh, I read lots of romantic books and I'd be lying if I said I do not watch cute couple tiktoks at 12 in the morning and bitch about the fact that I do not have someone to do cute things with. When im reading romantic books, I get jealous of the female lead. This sounds stupid, but trust me, those books are super super romantic haha
I can be in the right situation but generally no.. I’m a simple girl. Typical Romantic scenarios, dates, travel destinations make me cringe and flowers are probably the worst, but at the same time I’d still like to cook a good meal if I loved someone and leave a little gift by the bedside table if at work. That being said at least I’m low maintenance, no fancy restaurants or expensive bracelets thanks.
I honestly Dk. I’m very tactile tho I suppress this for the most part. It only comes out in very narrow set of circumstance and I think In romantic settings, that can be confused with romantic. And I just Dk if I am.
No, I’m aromantic. Doesn’t mean I won’t do nice gestures for someone special though. It’s kinda like Sonic the Hedgehog and Amy. He’ll always care about her or save her from danger but will also attempt to flee from her romantic advances and never say “I love you.”
I would rather not be. It's a catalyst to both sadness and happiness, a double-edged sword that can either give or take away all the hope. It's also impossible to talk about it as most people are not as sensitive.
Okay so basically my issue is I mix romance with sex LOL. So anything sexual for me is romantic. That’s my type of romance and that’s the only romance I like.
How do you define being romantic? Not necessarily acts themselves but as a way of being. I wonder if people are referring to the same thing whrn they answer. Or maybe the question can be looked at as do you see yourself as romantic. The perception being the main subject, rather than the act of being itself. I don't know but either way I’m curious how you see being a romantic person 😊
@VIVANT very good question... and to me it's more related to the way I am, because when I am into someone, I really am into that someone. So, not only I am very observant as a person and I focus on details as much as I do focus on the big picture but I am also very genuine when I feel for someone. I am also dedicated... so this all combines for me to see you as you really are, to listen to what you say, I do connect with your every mood, I give it a thought to your every thought... so these things (and few others) are part of who I am and how I can be.
And they lead to the other ways which I can or I can act, it makes me attentive and affective, thoughtful and considerate... and I am always present and dedicated to the moment, and all other moments, future and past... I have to say I am not cheesy, or cliché lol.. not clingy. There's no excess, I think excess of anything can be not good.
So that's what I say that for the right person, there will be right moments, some women are more of this way, or they are less of this way like, some women like this a lot, some like it or need it less... and that's when I do "act in more romantic ways" and it will be some little details, it will be gestures on the day by day... I don't like big displays of whatever romantic movie stuff, I rather be more genuine and personal, when I know the woman I am with really really is into more of this, then it just comes more naturally from me, and I do these things not to impress but is just the way I bond and connect with the one I am with.
@VIVANT A funny example (I think) it's the fact that I can write songs, and I can write poetry, but... I cannot just write any songs, I can't write pop hit music songs out of nowhere, and I sure am no poet to just write about anything as a poem should be... but the moment I am in love with someone, and I do feel into that someone, it is very different... I'm not sure exactly but because of the bonds and the connections and the moment, I can do it on the spot and it just flows... and again is not cheesy stuff, lol... I do have notions of literature and composition that I got from childhood days, as well as a whole catalog of very old music in my mind (when music had more of true lyricism) so I am not sure how it happens but definitely happens, and it's because of the way I am... and it's not exactly I can just be at any point, it's less of an act and more a way of being.
And then I just say I am a romantic person... because that's what all my significant others have told me... lol, that I can be a very romantic person... I guess I do not impress people with gifts but, with genuine dedication, or so they say.
That makes sense to me and I don’t even know if half of that id widely considered romantic bit I think it sounds like a very accurate description. I think the commercial stuff is all commercial and not in its essence necessarily romantic -tho anything can be of course if it’s genuine.
I csnt be the way you describe not in person maybe on paper- but I’m envious lol it’s lovely and think of how much nicer the world would be if people could be more like this in general.
No I’m not. I try to be but it feels unnatural. But I can still appreciate a guy who is romantic though. They’re weird sentimental creatures but like they say, opposites attract. :)
No not really, I won't be like oh so romantic this dance, this dinner. More like this is fun or we should go there again. And I'm not a fan of flowers or sweet talk
I just play along with it because in Disney movies when you don't play along she turns into a witch and an evil bitch. So just play nice and maybe you will get some action.
I can be romantic, if want to be. But it's very tedious.
