That actually makes a lot of sense. I don't know if Meg even makes any movies still, and some of hers would NOT qualify as love stories. Good point, though. Maybe a chick flick would be a good litmus test. | |

HEY! Im a romantic at heart...dunno if Im particularly feminine though. *thinks not*
Just because I prefer Action Movies over the humdrum Tear Jerkers & Romantic Comedies...doesnt mean Im devoid of the beauty, anticipation & realization of Love, being Inlove, Loving a man and having Him Love me.
Doesnt mean I want to be rescued...or rescue anyone else either.
But I do...in my heart...believe there's a special man for me.
Whether I meet him or not...is totally different. And Im not holding my breath. | |

Well, for most of the thread there was a confusion as to where the getaway was (55 miles away, not across continents). And I think the other issue that people didn't like was unexpected nature of that getaway combined with ...ummm... a rather significant progress in getting closer to each other. If he is ready for it, he would remember it for years. If he is not, you are risking putting him on the spot. | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 6:22:02 AM | That's actually a good question RedHead... OP, or other men wishing to find a romantic, what makes a woman romantic to you? I've heard men say that women do not tend to be romantic... that romance is something women expect to be generated from men.
I give a lot, I'm caring and have a distinct tendency to be self-sacrificing... but I'm not all that sure that that qualifies as "romantic" in the eyes of men. Nurturing perhaps. Definitely caring is something anyone "gets" about me... but romantic? I dunno.
I am more likely to make a million small gestures than a grand romantic gesture; I notice something that is unique to him or to his needs. Give space, write notes, really say hello and good-bye... I buy flowers from time to time and booze and cream for his coffee. I definitely lean a little more to the 'useful' things than the frivolous, or things I think he wouldn't do/get/be for himself but would enjoy. I'll take him out for dinner 'just because' far more often than I would think of making an occasion of it and I always have my eye out for a book he might like. But is this romantic? I don't know, in many ways it feels almost self-indulgent to me, being able to create love... I certainly get myself out of it.
I pay attention and express my care, concern and love, but I'm not at all certain that is 'romantic'. Romantic makes me a bit nervous, like there's an exam I forgot about and haven't studied for, lol | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 6:26:45 AM | I haven't been romanced in my life yet so it might feel awkward.
Happy to try though! 
Just read some more there..I do romantic myself..but it hasn't yet been returned....I'm waiting! You have to give it if you want it back..and it's fun..but can be totally ignored!
VVV just the text would work or me..I have done that on occasion..for no reason other than wanting to. | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 6:28:22 AM | Red Head, What I consider romantic is like the following: weekend getaways at BB or even hotel. hell motel would work (just two pp in a new surroundings) rose petals on the bed! so sexy. some favorite drinks, dinner anyplace that does not use paper in any part of the meal, (no fast food) picnic
on the beach, a text during the day to just say hi and I miss you ( I want you) wink during a meeting he is in! Coming over in something better than bluejeans and tee all the time (put some effort in how you dress) something special every once and awhile. Candles always a plus. B-fest in Bed! Plan a day in bed all day! yummie! Wear something special under your clothes or maybe nothing under your clothes, you get the ideal. total unexpected wink again
I hope this helps Red! | |

WTF? I would LOVE to have a woman do that for me as I think many other men would too. When a woman makes a gesture like that it goes to show how much she cares, just as when we do it. Who ever gave advice like that obviously has serious issues. I see no reason women shouldn't or can't do little things like that for their men once in a while, very romantic indeed. | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 9:03:44 AM | I think some of the folks on the other thread were voicing concern that it mught be too soon and if I wasn't sure of his feeoings about the relationship then it could backfire ...
We.ve only known each other for a short time but that doesn't seem to matter to either one of us ...we both feel right about where we ware headed so ...I think we are both looking forward to taking things to the next level...he is a healthy NORMAL guy after all lol!!! | |

Yea, I was more than a little surprise by the answers in your other forum topic. I think most men would have love to go with you to the B&B. It sounded wonderful and what I didn't hear anybody say is that if it didn't sound wonderful to your man, he could just say no or suggest doing something else then or at another time. Most men that I know that are single would probably go just for the probability of sex with a very attractive woman even if he wasn't quite on board with the "commitment thing" yet. | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 9:19:08 AM | hot mom ; What exactly then do you men consider romantic....
romance can happen anywhere at any time... it is the dimming of the common things... the touching of toes underneath the table... the lipsstick heart left on my mirror... holding hands in the park....going to a very poor country and helping those who have no hope... skiping down a country road.... dancing in the street at midnight as we make r way back to our quite room... candles ...soft music.... single rose... slow dancing.... wine .... slow kissing with litle bites of chocolet...anything that sets the mood for us to be in touch.... read my poem Waters Edge.. there has to be some faniscies in romance... i hope that helps... i would do b&b that sounds very romantic...

Well, perhaps if you became a hopeFUL romantic and stopped dreaming all the time you'd have more luck! 
Keep searching and never give up ........ we're out here!

I never was one, but my guess is that they lived real life and realized they were setting themselves up for dissapointment? Which is fine if you like broken hearts, but most women decided they liked to be realistic more than they liked being hurt when it comes to your "love" life.
Romance sells books, movies and television shows, but it's not a really smart way to go about in real life. Be open to the best, be prepared for the worst is better if you're looking to avoid a lot of heartache. | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 10:05:06 AM | I'm not really comfortable with a woman spending money on me. I prefer personal gestures - a foot rub, my favourite meal, a mixed CD with HER favourite songs (so I can peek a little deeper into her soul), Hand-washing my favourite ball cap (it's an EXPOS cap, so it's getting really old). That sort of thing.
This is really making me lonely. :( | |

Posted: 4/10/2008 11:41:12 AM | Ugly Betty makes some good points, however being a romantic type myself, I have always felt that in order to be truly happy, you need to put yourself out there and dream a little at the risk of being hurt. I wear my heart on my sleeve and if that means that I'm in for a little heartache then so be it...at least I know I put my all into it and didn't hold back based on the "what if's"
The Romantic side of me definitely comes out more when I am with a chivalrous man though. So where are they hiding? lol | |
