uuuuuuuuuuuggggggg.......... no thank you very much! (About the toenails, but if it works for anyone else.... )

Romance to me isn't flowers or candy or those type of gestures which fall into my catagory of sappy stuff. I have had that done to me with false intentions that were done initially to get my attention, hook me, and then once gotten, the romance went by the wayside. So, I have a tendency to look at romance in a cynical way I guess. Maybe unrealistic expectations intruded into by reality???

Now, if you want to do some laundry, clean the house, pick up the kids, cook dinner.........well, then that is romance to me. That means that the person is looking out for me, taking some of the burden, that sort of thing. And............if my man wants to get me a kitchen appliance as a gift??? I say go for it....anything that will make my life easier is romantic to me....

Chey~ I whole heartedly agree. Romance isn't bought. It's the tiny gestures that tell you that someone values you.

I guess I´m another hopeless idiot, for saying "I love You" too many times.
But it´s those "little" words and things you do and say that "always" count the most in a romance.

I'm a hopeless romantic, I love making my s/o feel loved and special.

I also totally agree with everything Cheyanne had to say on the subject.

I will have to agree with you, the "little" things that we do and say are the ones that do count the most in a romance, but you are no idiot for saying "I love you" to many times, those 3 little worlds can mean the world if they are said with honesty, and to the person that you really love deep down in your soul, because when they are said just for the eck of it, that's not being romantic, that's just playing with peoples feelings

Love is a verb.......

I think Romance is showing the one you love, love in the way that they receive it best. There is a book called "the Five Love Languages" by Dr. Gary Chapman, that really explains those ways. Everyone is different in the way they like love to be shown. Sometimes ti takes effort to show love in a way your not used to, but then it wouldnt be a true gift without some sacrafice, no?

I'm naturally thoughtful and caring, but I'm a total loss most of the time when it comes to romance .... It usually goes right over my head when a guy is flirting with me ... someone else will usually have to point it out to me!!!! LOL!

I am not a natural romantic. I have to work at it, be deliberate in being romantic. I must admit that when I do work at it, I come up with some pretty good stuff!

I don't know about "naturally" romantic. It almost always comes with some forethought. But, when it comes without a "means to an end" expectation......(such as...he might think, "If I take out the trash I'll prolly get laid tonight").....then it's definitely considered romance!

My hubby probably thinks he is the least romantic person on the planet......but he is so wrong about that! He knows my passion for old bottles and is always bringing me dirty, obscure treasures...dug up from jobs sites! He also brings "raw" crystals, arrowheads, and on very, very, very rare occasions...dinosaur bones (which he rarely touches when discovered because the site has to be shut down and archeologists are called)! Doesn't sound awfully romantic to some....but I swoon!

I'm a more practiced romantic........a special dinner with candles and atmosphere! A special "visual" Valentine's gift...(which you've all shared a part of in a thread I did). A call from a warm shower.....to come and join me! A note in his lunch.....reminding him that I love him and that I can't wait to see him at the end of the workday! But, I also do more simple things on a daily basis.....like saving the flyer that came in the mail and I would consider "junk" but he'd find it a treasure....of tools on sale "this week only"! Cleaning the caked on mud from his workboots as he showers the oil and dirt off......from a long, hard day on the worksite.......so he doesn't have to deal with that mud again in the same day! Giving him back the $20 I found while doing the laundry......lol! The "little things" speak volumes to my heart....and I hope to his!

Being romantic is purely subjective. I know some people who are romantic and have no clue that they are and some that think they are but that I would not consider them to be.

Being a flirt has nothing to do with being romantic, in fact to me it can signify the very opposite. Being romantic involves taking the time to know someone and to do ( that verb thing again) things that show that person that they are important to you. Romance and intimacy are closely related to me and flirting excessively can actually be a way to avoid intimacy so I see them as possible opposites.

To me candles and wine do not mean someone is romantic. If you want to impress me romantically be creative, be considerate. Hell you can do kind things for someone else and I'll see it as romantic. Being chivalrous is an extremely romantic gesture to me.
