I want Romance.

Romance for me is when someone is emotionally committed to another while still independent. And when that feeling is mutual.


And when another makes you horny for emotional reasons, as opposed to carnal reasons.

 

My romance needs are pretty basic. I mean, my husband getting up with the kids so that I can have an extra half and hour sleep is pretty romantic to me. Or taking the time to call to say that he was thinking about my smile. Small things like that matter more to me. Fuck the flowers and candles.

 

i want romance too
i want passion
cause i've lost alot of passion...

i think what i want most right now is a stable relationship
one that doesn't require us to sneak around...

and one with someone that isn't completely insane and the bad kind of crazy


:leaving:

 

That's good. Little gestures are the best. Simple pleasures are the best.

It's really hard being with someone you're only half-interested in.

 

it's harder to be in a relationship with someone that is only half interested in you.....

or with someone that is using you...

or with someone that is in another relationship....

i could go on but i won't

 

I understand that. I've been at both ends. But more of the being half-interested in her, than the opposite.

Both are horrible.

For some reason a lot of men end up with women they are not really interested in. And a lot of women end up with men that are not interested in them.

Evolutionary, probably.

 

Romance is nice...when it lasts, it sucks like 6 months in when the guys get lazy..

 

I'm skeptical of anything with the root word "roman". Is there another name for it?

 

Uh. There is a heck of a whole lot more to "getting lazy" from a male perspective.

 

Intimacy.

It's still not Greek, though.

 

I have that kind of romance, that kind of love. And it's been going strong for almost exactly a year and two months now. I have the best boyfriend that anyone could ever ask for. Everything that every woman wants in a man, he's got it. He's so good for me it hurts.

Here's to you finding your Mr. Perfect.

 

What do I think of romance? I'm not the most romantic person in the world, neither is my partner...we get along great in that way. I'm just not the warm and fuzzy type, I guess. My partner and I do nice things for one another and we cuddle with one another and say "I love you" and all that, but we don't do romantic candle-lit dinners or those other cheesy things. It's just not who we are.

I used to be cheesy like that...then, I grew out of it...I don't know what happened really.

 

Last yea i got a fortune that said

romance is just around the corner

it took a while but its here so yeay!

 

I can relate Dancer Annie, and then I guess this begs the question about what everyone's perception of romance is, because some things mentioned are not what I think as romance at all.

 

I suppose everyone has their own definition. I personally think "candle lit dinners" and squishy compliments...neither of which I do...My boyfriend tried to be romantic once...

While staring into my eyes, "Baby, your eyes are so pretty they look like..........like..........marbles." It was hysterical. I gave him an A for effort. I mean, that compliment was the best compliment ever...because it wasn't cheesy...it was spontaneous. Awkward, but spontaneous. He's wonderful.

Aww woman, thanks!

I suppose in a way, I'm sort of wanting more in my own personal relationship than what I see with my parents.

Like praxis said earlier, some relationships or marriages are a partnership, but there lacks a sense of intimacy; the kind of intimacy that embraces both independents' emotional desires separately, while simultaneously nurturing a healthy bond and relation between the two that somehow strengthens.

I don't think my parents have any romance. I totally want some, dammit.

 

Umm...No.
Dont want it, dont need it.

 

Hahaha. Come'on, Piaf. What are you, on birth control?
