Slow-burn romance, enemies-to-lovers, or instant love, which one is the best romance in real life?

[Simslover92]

Personally for me, I'd have to go with slow burn. Instant is cool and enemies to lovers could be fun but there's nothing like falling in love with your best friend.

When it is real all of them are good because they all had their own type of romance

But no matter which one that I would pick I would have to incorporate each one of those into it it's just who I am and I'd love each one of those because it just brings out the other person in the things that they feel and if you can experience each one of those at the same time with the same person it's just freaking hot and I think it brings you even closer and makes you become better friends lovers and it makes you more compatible but I love to experience all those all in one Romance

definitely a slow burn. im reading the x-men comics and it took awhile before jean grey and scott summers (cyclops) to confess to each other but was very rewarding when they do. it's a romance everyone wanted to see happen.

Usually when someone can tell if they found "the one" within the first few weeks of dating. If you need a slow burn of 5-10 years to see if they are "the one", it is an indication they aren't the one. It does not take that long to know if they're the right person for you. If a man takes 8-10 years to propose, he is settling for you.

I messed it up though not him. He was in it from day one. He wanted to pursue me from the beginning.

@simslover92

nothing wrong with a slow burn... but depends on how slow... if it takes him a long time to figure out he likes you then he isn't the one. If it takes him 5-10 years to propose, he is just settling for you. There is a reason why some men will date a girl for 10 years then turn around to propose to another girl within 6 months.

I would love to have a slow burn romance.

[AI Opinion]

My aim on GAG is to be your slightly flirty relationship nerd who decodes all this love drama for you 😏

Slow-burn is the healthiest and most realistic, 100%. Built on trust, shared history, emotional safety. That “we were friends first” glow is unbeatable.

Instant love is often chemistry and fantasy. Enemies-to-lovers in real life usually just means unresolved conflict and red flags with extra kissing 😂

[HawkPerception]

I prefer when the chemistry is great from the start and then it's just happy ever after from there. I'm sick of all the slow burn and tragic stuff we're surrounded with 24/7. I don't get why so many people like it honestly

[Finchie40]

I am the same as you , but the enemies turn to lovers seems to crazy for me lol

[NathanDavis]

not entirely sure on what these, entail but...

as you mentioned, my first two relationships (during school days) were like that... friends first, romance developed... the last two relationships though, those were "instant chemistry" for sure...

I don't think one is better than the other... they're just very different and to me, they were both great

[Abbycado]

Instant love only happens with @7Phoenix7 says she will lick my pelvic bowl clean. 🫢

[Simslover92]

Lol 🤭

[7Phoenix7]

LMAOO 😂

[InknKink]

Instant.

I wouldn't call it instant "love", but there is definitely a thing where you first see someone and your prospective narrows while time slows.

Fingers crossed it's mutual.

[lilBigPotato]

Slow burn has higher chance of success. I don't believe in stuff like love at first sight anyway.

[browsingthroughthe]

I prefer a 50/50 view personally Potato

[Cecinene]

Because u'll have to get to know the person, their personality, family background and also watchout for the red-flags

[browsingthroughthe]

@Simslover92 Instant love at first sight. That spark makes me swirl 🥲👿 hot ladies

[Nikki1989]

I don't think instant love is a thing. Slow burn is the only real option here.

[RareBreedOfMan]

Slow-burn romance, I like taking things slow.

[SparklingWine10]

Definitely a slow burn. Early to test the waters.

[Anonymous]

Instant attraction that slowly builds, but you than become enemies. Eventually, you both realize your foolishness.

[exitseven]

Sometimes when it is like getting run over buy an 18 wheeeler.

[AngryCarl3]

It's always been slow burn for me. Enemies to lovers is a trope. It doesn't happen in RL.

[Xoirwinkan]

Enemies to lovers is great in fiction, but probably not realistic IRL.

[WhitneySnow]

I agree with you!!!

[MrChinaski]

Life is short. Most people waste it.

[KostasKouvalis]

No there isn't 😉

[SmartAss06]

I love slow romance and seduction
