Valentine's Day Photo Contest: What was your most romantic experience?
I was on vacation with my boyfriend in Stockholm. The first day we had spent walking around in shops, and the second day we wanted to spend doing more tourist-y things. Like see the sunken ship at Vasa museum, visit the castle etc. We walked around pretty much everywhere, and the weather was really bad. It was rainy, cold and windy. At some point I started to get hangry, and I was annoyed at my boyfriend for not trusting my navigation skills (I’d been to Stockholm plenty of times before, and I had google maps to help me on my phone too). He’d also been pretty stressed the whole day because he wanted to do as many tourist-y things as possible and our day was packed with activities. I got more and more hangry, but luckily we stumbled upon a good restaurant that my boyfriend had found online. The decor was very cozy and inviting, kind of reminded me of an old English pub. Immediately when stepping into it, I could feel my nerves calming down. But I was still hungry, and wet from the drizzle outside. We ordered some tapas and a pulled pork burger. It. Was. So. Good. With every bite I could feel my mood getting so much better, and my boyfriend seemed to light up too. It was a nice moment, this moment of clarity. We’d been running around all day and we were so tired, that we’d almost forgotten to just take a breath and enjoy ourselves. And words honestly can’t describe how good that pulled pork burger was. It was EXACTLY what I needed. I still think longingly about it, even though it’s been over a year since I had it. We walked out of that place so happy, ready to explore more of the city before heading home with the boat. On the surface, it might not seem like the most romantic experience. But the restaurant was so cozy, and we had such a nice time there. It’s crazy how some food can change your mood with the snap of a finger, and how it made us go from grumpy and tired people to two ol’ heart-eyed softies.
My boyfriend and I met here on GAG in 2014 (lol). We started messaging and we found out we went to the same university and decided to meet up the next weekend. We spent a year together at university, but then he graduated. Which left us long distance for my senior year of college and he moved out of state for his job.
For valentines day 2016, we decided to meet to in St. Louis (the city half way between us) and spend the weekend together. This was the view of the arch from our hotel room. We spent the weekend exploring the city, went out for a fancy dinner and spent time together. The very first valentines day we spent together was the first military ball we went to together (but I won't post a picture of that, because its too personal). I can't decide which one of those two valentines days were more memorable. lol.
We are still together and still long distance. Valentines Day hasn't been the easiest holiday for us to meet up on, especially when its during the week and we both have work, so I don't have a lot of valentines day photos. But this was definitely one of the most romantic and happiest weekends of my life.
I like this photo because the sunset behind the arch looks really pretty and for some odd reason the hotel gave us a super nice room with the best view when we booked this trip last minute too. It reminds me that long distance is worth it when you're with someone who you love and loves you as well. And even though we have our fights and issues while long distance, the distance will close one day and all this time will be worth it.
Excuse the low quality photo. I had spent all summer working on a ranch, 7 days a week, about 12 hour days. By the end of the summer i was exhausted and hadn't really had any time to myself. One day, i showed up to work and my boyfriend is there with a trailer and some horses loaded up, apparently he talked to my boss and got me a week off for us to go on a 'trip'. After a few hours of driving we ended up in the middle of the rocky mountains, where we had to park the truck and continue on horseback. We rode for almost a full day until we came to the top of a waterfall where there was a little camp set up for us. We stayed there for the week just riding all day. It was so exclusive and incredible, and i can't imagine the amount of planning it took to organize it all without me finding out. That was 4 years ago, i love this guy more every day ♡
It was an easy choice of what the most romantic experience has been, but I had difficulty choosing just one picture of the trip, so I made a collage instead.
So basically, on our very first date we were talking about traveling and he asked me if I would go to Paris with him. I immediately answered yes without even thinking about it, while we had only known each other for a week. He replied with "I'm not kidding, we are going to Paris." and I said I'm not kidding either. Fast forward a year. We did not end up in Paris, but in Rome instead. No matter, it was just as romantic. At that point we were still trying to work out a long distance relationship and having a whole week just the two of us was just like heaven. I love all the memories we made there and it'll be a while until we can muster up enough cash to take another trip. Until then.
Have the strength to shut the negative out and allow all of your room for the positive. And BE HAPPY because clearly you must be TOTALLY AWESOME or no one would have hated on you in the first place.
They hate themselves. They want to be you They see you as a threat
Fortunately at present I am #happy#single No plans to Mingle in near future. Never kissed any girl. Never went to date still giving dating tips to shy girls and teen girls.
Never proposed any girl because never felt that connection with whom I can indulge in relationship. Probably because for me meaning of Relationship is something different. Emotional Connection is must. Check out my Take.
No one can make us feel happy and loved unless we create the space for it inside by practicing self-love. I love myself and expect same from my future wife whomsoever she might be. I love my family and my country though people Criticise it but I am living here and I am knowing the reality.
I avoid attaching my photos because lots of trolls. Any Guesses? I want to share one photo with GirlsAskGuys Community. One of the Happy Couple of GirlsAskGuys.
My girlfriend and I live 1000km away from each others, I do the distance in train every week-end in order to see her. One day, when I was at the train station. I saw that my train was canceled and i told her so. A guy from the train compagny heard my phone conversation and once i finished to talk to my girlfriend, he told me that he could manage to find me a place on another train. I didn't not tell my girlfriend and i finally arrived to her door, when she opened she didn't realized immediatly, we looked in each other eyes for few seconds and she jump intomy arms.
i know a pair of American tourists that wanted to go to Nice but ended up getting to niš ( ni-sh ) (in serbia its spelled as ( Nis ) (the š is basically sh ) a city in serbia xD they were a cute couple and ended up actually roaming around serbia xD
This was my Valentine’s Day last year, with my ex fiancé I have deleted most of our photos (this was on the day), and even though we ended on very bad terms he did make me happy at the time, we went for a meal and stayed in a hotel together and had a really nice day, This year I am single 😭 and will be scoffing chocolates alone 💝😜😊
Aw, I'm so sorry babe! 😭 You two were so cute. I'm in the same boat with you however, so don't feel that you're alone my dear 💖 We will both find our prince charming someday 😊💕
@thatchristiangirl Aww thanks lovely! :) Sorry to hear you've broken up with your boyfriend i remember you said you thought he was hiding you or something? i'm sure it will all work out for you in the end and you will find the same! <3

I hate the fact that I'm taking part in this... but I do happen to have a pretty fitting story and picture. This picture was taken in Amsterdam on the first holiday I'd ever taken with a girlfriend. It was potentially going to be the last time we were together as she was moving to Spain and I lived im Scotland. We'd only been in a relationship for about 3 or 4 months at this point and had only know each other for a couple of months more than that. We'd already ruled out long distance so this was potentially 'it'. But on this holiday, we shared a tiny flat together, we organised everything really well, we had a lot of fun in the city and ultimately came to the conclusion that we made a great couple and shouldn't let it end. So we decided that we would both take a leap of faith and I would move out to Spain with her the following month. We're still together (in Spain) and are moving somewhere new together this month. So if not for this trip where this photo was taken, we wouldn't be together and my life would be a less wonderful!
My one only Romantic experience was a night my friend dragged me into a club, i wasn't having a very good time and had found a place to sit down in all the madness. So im sitting pretty depressed in a club when a girl sits next to me and starts chatting to me, mainly asking why im in a club i don't like e. c. t then she tells me she's only there because her friend brought her. Then goes on to tell me that their travelling throughout Europe and are only in the city for a couple of days. She then asked to dance with me, this cheered me and we danced like it was only us two in the club. After about half an hour we got our coats and went for a walk to cool off. It was nice i haven't really dated or anything so it was the first time a girl had every really taken interest in me. We walked chatting about our lives and joked around a little just having a good time taking pictures e. c. t. We must have walked for about 2 hours in total when we wondered up a rural path and found a bench that had an amazing view, we just sat stargazing and chatting when she kissed me.(might not be a big deal but its the first connection i had ever made with a girl) So we kissed some more and were in complete bliss, her friend then calls freaking out as her phone had died and she'd been out searching for her for hours. She panicked and I called her a taxi.
Anyway I had giver her my phone number because she never had facebook and I never heard from her, but it was still the best night of my life. Sorry about the long paragraph.
No need to be sad @Afrochick if it's meant im sure we'll cross paths at some point in our lives :) I'm just glad to have shared such a close moment with someone.
But for privacy reasons I highly respect *her preference* to remain private and I will not post a picture of her real self. But I'm going to make so much love 💕 to her when I get back home today late. So sorry, I can't show off.
Who would have thought, that the thing, that I was looking for was with me all along since birth? I have realized this very late but hey, it's still better late than never, right? ❤
I do like valentines day because of free pornhub premium and that goes for youporn too 😀😀😀
Those, who made it happen and maintain those porn sites are pretty cool and do have a good sense of humor by making every 14. th February a free premium day for everyone 😀
I think I'll consider investing into porn companies stocks too right now. Need to have something else so I don't have to solely rely on a single source of income to survive and support myself. Anything popular and addictive as fuck are worth the risks.
@JudgmentDay that's why the governments control all the drugs and have all the power. Plus the bankers. They make us bleed with their credit cards. Money talks.
We took a spontaneous road trip to Monterey, California. He drove me to have dinner at the fisherman's wharf. We then drove to Santa Cruz where he took me to the bridge on the beach where they filmed part of the Lost Boys movie and he gave me a sweet kiss. We then made our way to the famous Winchester Mystery House where we explored the haunted mansion. It was a great day and night we will never forget. This pic is us on the bridge being loving and silly. Happy Valentine's Day Gager's.❤💋❤💋❤💋
When my fiancé made last Valentine's Day the best day I thought I would ever have & the most amazing day! he took me out and spent the hole day with me and surprise me with the best proposal I could have ever asked for😊😍 thinking my ring was the best gift he had ever gotten me turns out a few weeks later I was pregnant 🤷🏻♀️😍 who knew life could get any better now this Valentine's Day I get to spent with my two boys ❤️
I took that photo the first day I met the love of my life in person. It’s not the first kiss but it’s our first comfortable embrace.
I had gotten off the plane and we left for the hotel. We waited for our room to open up so we had sat on the bench and were kissing, hugging, touching each other. It has to be one of the happiest days of my life.
It was warm and breezy and it felt so good to be able to kiss him whenever I wanted. We were so used to video chatting saying “I wish I could kiss you.”
Well we kissed as much as possible that week. This picture captured a lot of our love. I love kissing him.
As per my observation your image is not appearing properly because it is attached from Dropbox. Competition should be fair Posting your image again. 😊 Sending you good luck vibes.
@Being_a_good_Indian all you have to do is click the link and you should be able to see it! I had nowhere else To upload it so it’d show up. But thank you 💕
It's not that romantic, but so memorable because we're in a long distance relationship. We were going to some lectures, learning something new about life and having fun together.
As someone who haven't had merely the smallest amount of romantic experiences, I would say my first kiss was my most romantic moment. It was summer and I was a teenager at the time when it happened. I met this young guy who instantly seemed interested in me. His job was a wall painter, he had been doing some renovation work at our house for a while, and it only took him a few days to make the first move & come talk to me. It all happened so quick, we kissed the day we first talked. We kissed on the balcony..., it was an unforgettable moment. Funny how our feelings were mutual, I felt the same way towards him. I was interested in him as well but too shy to do anything, but I got lucky. We then sneaked outside in a hidden place, he picked me up and we kissed some more. ak5.picdn.net/.../8.jpg
Ice skating at Hampton Court with my long distance boyfriend, it was quite magical. 😊Even more special cause we don’t get to see each other that much (cause of the 5 hour coach distance). Unfortunately won’t see him for valentines so we’ve already celebrated it a few days ago.
Posing on ice skates is quite a struggle though I must say 😂 Let alone kissing someone on the cheek, I almost tripped in the second picture.
Feeling the fierce competition with all the super cute valentines animals however :(
This picture was taken a few years ago. It was for one of my photography courses and it featured my boyfriend and I. It was a nice experience because we could have picken up a fight at anytime. The time of exposure was long, we were cold and hungry, and my camera's wireless remote control was working half of time. The angles weren't always perfect and mainting the pose was so painful! It was challenging but we pulled it off and I got a very good score for it! Love is also understand and teamwork! ;)
This day... Let me tell ya! My girlfriend and I were having the hardest time starting out. Her abusive parents kept us apart. Because I was trying to help her get away. After about a month of hardship and tears.. (Mostly tears) :p She was free from them. And we could actually go on a dates.. We've been through a lot together already. And we're both still young.
This kiss means a lot to the both of us. We were both free to to start our romantic relationship. ❤️
I know it's edited.. But I did that in part because I don't want our actual Full-HD faces on here. And on the other hand, I think it adds a nice touch.
When I saved this guy's life. His name is Simba, 6 years old and ex owner tried to kill him. We just took this dog to our car and this was our first meeting. I could've see the pain in his eyes but it's my favorite photo ever because that dog was like my child, my best friend and he saved my life too, just different way. He died last year and I'm broken, don't think I'll forget him
