Is it a struggle for you to be romantic because either you don't seem to ever get it right, or you just don't see the point of doing romantic gestures? Do you want to get better at it, or you just don't care to or feel like you ever will?

No, it’s only a struggle when I am not receiving what I am giving , for any relationship to work and for love and romance to continue to grow , both people need to give the same way they want to receive , itt can’t be one sided , I will only be romantic to a girl that treats me the same way I treat her. A girl that chooses me the same way I choose her , Relationships and romance doesn’t have to be hard , Selfish people make it hard. If you want love to grow you both have to make each other your top priority over everyone else is this world , if you can’t make your partner your top priority , don’t expect them to do the same for you. When you start treating your partner like they are a convenience, don’t be surprised when you become their convenience as well. Most relationships fail because one partner becomes selfish and only cares about themselves, they no longer give the same way they want to receive. When they aren’t receiving , they run to someone else to save them. Stop comparing your partner to other people , your partner should be your top priority if you want romance and love
No not even I mean once I look into that person's eyes or there's a touch with the eyes or touch with just each other's fingers or hand I can start to feel that person within and I try to become one with them and I become very sensual very passionate almost slow motion with every touch
No, not at all. The struggle is that I tend to idolise them, and then I find myself disappointed when the love bubble bursts and this image I had built up isn't exactly who they are, nor that that's a bad thing my expectations probably are. I've been crying; if this doesn't make sense, please forgive me because I'm all over the place right now emotionally.
There were times I had those feelings… glad I worked it out but took time… and continue to have hope and love… do it again… happily married again.
don’t give up.
Much love and understanding heading your way! Being romantic can feel like navigating a maze for some, especially when it's all about matching energy and personal likes. Remember, romance is subjective, and what works for one might not work for another. 🥰
Whether you're a poetic serenade type or leaning towards a 'tiny thoughtful gesture' person, practice and empathy are your best allies. Embrace those quirky, imperfect attempts—they might just be your special sauce! And yes, we relationship coaches think romance is worth the effort, always! 💞

I am now but not before.
A key factor I think is the number of past failed romances. I think everyone has enormous confidence in their first and you'll never have the same degree of confidence again. With each failed romance, the confidence is eroded further.
I might meet a girl and like her. She might like me back. I will think she likes me... for now.
I might do something romantic but it will be technically romantic like buying flowers and it will be transactional; i expect to get really good sex out of it.
I think genuine romance is in the same trash bin as till death do us part marriages.
There is a lot of difference between me doing things that help persuade that I am a good choice for building a life together with and me doing things that prompt you to think you should give me good sex as a reward.
Not anymore.
I admittedly am normally the quiet/stoic type and I'm relatively guarded but when I open up and it's gearing towards a relationship/dating I open up now.
I try to behave in the idea of a "gentleman" and I do all the chivalrous things, which I enjoy doing too.
I struggled with this at times when I was younger for sure, and I had very different intentions and a youthful ego.
I have a different perspective now, my intentions for marriage and children are plain and open, that's certainly a change from a HS kid and a horny young man in college/military.
One thing life has taught me is women create thier own reality. If she wants to see you as romantic even if you're not, she will. And on the flipside of that. If you're very romantic. And she doesn't see as romantic. Then no romantic gesture will ever suffice.
So I don't worry about it. My advice is do what feels natural to them. Do what comes from the heart and then don't worry about it. After that the issue is hers.
If and when I'm feeling romantic, it's no struggle at all.
I can usually be easily drawn into being in a romantic mood.
There are circumstances when it just isn't going to happen.
Erm no. I actually enjoy being romantic. You know little love notes in the lunch I make my husband that kinda thing.
No, not at all. With the right person, I face no problems in being romantic.
Yes. I'm a good actor and for me it's just a tool
yes... sometimes gotta remind myself that JUST doing nice shit isn't romantic lol
No, more struggle to find someone to give all my love too
Expressing it vocally, yes.
Expressing it through other means, no.
No not really, but it does take me some time and patience to gain trust first.
I've always been more romantic than my partners, so I would say it's not a struggle for me
Omg yes! I forget birthdays, anniversaries and I don’t find mushy cards or dates romantic.
If I did want do get better at it tell me your ideal scenario
It's not a struggle for me to be romantic, it's a struggle to meet a woman I can be romantic with, sometimes.
Are you referring to yourself or a man in your life's actions?
No, despite my brash commentary, I’m pretty squishy, warm and fuzzy in person. Especially with girls 😉😂
Yep. Been rejected for so long, that my brain doesn't consider it important or a need, so i just try to enjoy what I enjoy.
I want to be very romantic, but it’s so difficult to find a partner…
It is a struggl for me to maintain a romance, but being romantic is not difficult.
Where I worked, my bosses and friends told me that I looked like a love man.
I have always been a romantic but sometimes they don't want that.
No it comes natural to me and simple especially with my wife.
If I assume it’s frequent, how often? And anything turn you on in specific?
Sometimes, I get nervous about sharing my ideas.
Only if it's longer than a week!
No, too easy.
