Are romance or romantic gestures important to you in your relationship?

[Anonymous]

Do you want the type of relationship where your partner still surprises you with a room full of flowers or a cute picnic on a mountain top?

[hahahmm]

Absolutely. It's very romantic when my wife cooks for me. When she cleans. When she cooks a huge meal for my family when they're in town. Mind you, I can cook top quality dishes in my sleep if I want to but she prefers to cook like 95% of the time cause it's one of the ways she can show her appreciation for everything else that I do.

My wife is a feminine woman so almost everything she does is a "romantic gesture" to a dude like me.

And what do I do? All the traditional masculine stuff. A traditional dude rewards his woman for being traditional. She gets tons of stuff she never asked for. And some that she did.

Romance and romantic gestures can be quite important in a relationship as they help to keep the connection strong and maintain intimacy. Acts like thoughtful surprises, heartfelt notes, or simple expressions of love can make partners feel valued and appreciated. Romance fosters emotional closeness and can enhance communication and trust. However, the significance of romance varies among individuals and couples; what matters most is understanding and meeting each other's needs and preferences. Ultimately, the mutual effort to show love and affection, in whatever form that takes, is crucial to nurturing a healthy and fulfilling relationship. read

They're important. I can go without, but the consequences of giving and getting these gestures are far superior, lol.

I like to give small love notes (hiding them places for my partners to find), little gifts I find while out and about (gremlin mode), and take them on dates and experiences.

These gestures help us feel closer.

Yes, romance and romantic gestures are a big deal to me. The gestures are little markers indicating the path of the relationship in a positive and pleasant way that allows supportive feelings to bloom between you as you move forward with your relationship.

You betcha. This kind of intimacy is where beautiful families start. While not every act of Intimacy has to be a showboat of Honeymoon love, married couples always need to communicate Intimacy towards the one they love.

Love Blossoms like a garden when you water them and sing to them every day. Your lady, and the children you have are like a garden full of flowers. The Grass is greener not on the other side, but where you water it.

Of course. It's a way to show love to your partner. Instead of saying, "I love you. " You can surprise him/ her with that dessert they've been wanting to try... or a spontaneous gift... a date. Both big and small romantic gestures are good.

Of course , what’s better than the one you love and that’s says they love you “showing” it spontaneously or planning ways to show you how much they do. I love doing this more than receiving but I guess that’s a me thing !

[bobalife]

Absolutely, a relationship can not be develop without romance lol. We all have our own love languages to be expressed in many forms. I’m also quite a romantic.

[L_xiro]

Personally that would really makes my day 🙂 it's kinda silly tbh , but I never get tired of it and that 8 years old boy smile will immediately stole my face , I may eventually see it as a way of running out of my own reality to a better place enjoying those moments and never overthinking about anything else ! So to me it's a necessity to keep those things up no matter what

[bobby_bush_eater]

Yes they are, any extra effort like this even when it's small is meaningful. You can say I love you everyday but it's actions like those that make you really believe that, the small things matter

[dustybiker2]

They make a relationship. I prefer little spontaneous romantic gestures rather than the flamboyant. Personal preference.

[ginsephora]

Ofc they matter somehow they show the efforts its not about the gesture its about the efforts a person puts into the relationship to keep the things great

[CrabCakes11]

I really like them and would be disappointed if I didn’t get them

[PreferNot2Say]

Romance is a concept created by greeting card companies. An evil fantasy concept.

[ProbablyClueless]

Not particularly important. But they can be fun.

[LaurenM1997]

Yes very important I want that in a relationship

[handsomelad70]

Yes, because I'm a man who believes in chivalry and libido in a relationship.

[nawtee_me]

It can be a part of the bonding process or used to strengthen the bond.

[MaaikeVee]

Anything romantic is crucial to the relationship.

But gestures are good.

[NathanDavis]

meaningful ones... yes

[Nikki1989]

Absolutely!

[Fireguy17]

Yes, it is nice to do and receive.

[SotiCoto]

Never were. I hated that nonsense.

[Anonymous]
