I consider little things to be romantic- cards, thoughtfulness, an unexpected compliment or much needed gesture. even a little gift here and there- not necessarily expensive things, just things to say you care.

in that respect, i'm fairly romantic, but not in the grander way.

I agree with you. Its that special thought that makes a guy stand apart from the rest.

I always liked to leave little notes for her. Either around the house or in her car or purse. Nothing special, just an, "I love you", or "Hope you have a nice day", stuff like that.

Did she do anything for you in return?

Sometimes she'd put a note in my lunch or something like that or write a note on the mirror with soap so I would see it when the shower fogged up the mirror.

That would freak me out.
 
I'll admit it's hard to be romantic when you've been married a long time and have kids. I mean your spouse becomes more like a partner in a business sometimes than your romantic lover.

Running the household, dealing with teachers and homework, finances, housework, taking kids to sporting events, career issues, etc. Plus our occasional spats.

It's amazing that we do sometimes find time to act like a romantic couple. Usually happens when we get dressed nice and go out, which we try to make happen at least once a week. Those usually end in a good love-making session too. :)

Very well said.
 
Freddie's idea of romance is poetry, walks on the beach, watching the sunset... Too cliche? Too Miss America? Then...

Freddie's idea of romance is being possessed on the office desk, throw pens and papers on the floor and get fired by the head of the HR department the following morning, the same one who did you in the office the night before... Still too cliche? Too much drama? Then a Mercedez and diamonds will never go wrong. Believe me.

But I usually go for the smaller things: buy a little gift, prepare a special dinner, write a surprise love note, bring coffee in bed, take a bubble bath together, offer to help with problems, offer a shoulder to cry on, and assure him/her that everything will be fine. And listen to the other person. Listen, listen, listen.
 
I used to date a chick that had a lot of little tendencies and things that she liked to call "hers" or that would make her say, "that's so me" - ALL chicks have these things. and these are the key.

"her" drink was some soda crap. and "her" favorite food was some processed dessert crap.

so whenever she came over, I would always have her drink in the fridge and I would randomly make that dessert for her, which I did on her birthday. it took about 2 minutes to make and cost about $1.09. and to this day she still gets that look on her face when she talks about it. it's the little things....always will be.

I've never been like that and am not now ... (I have been accused of being a tad too masculine minded, though ...) I have to say Killa, you are just a pinch guilty of over-generalization ...

Nevertheless, the truth of the matter is a person could take KB's basic theory and expand it to encompass both genders. Romance really means that you pay attention to the little things that matter to another person.

This past Christmas my husband gave me a bunch of books, because he knows I love to read on summer vacation. With the exception of one title he was absolutely spot on, and I was just bowled over. In particular he gave me two books by an author that I really enjoyed reading last summer (a witty writer whose work makes me laugh out loud) and I couldn't believe he remembered that, it really touched me.

listen, guy - when someone says "All XXXX are this", it's pretty much given that it's a generalization and is not meant to be taken literally. for fuck's sake. but MOST chicks I have ever met/known were like that.

and if you read my first post in this thread, that is what I said - that it's all about listening and acting on the little personal things.

And how many CHICKS have you know well, how long have YOU been married? What's the longest relationship you've ever been that gives you the right to be so bitter about women?

And I freaking said you were right didn't I??? OMG, you are one of the most thin-skinned, hormonal bitches ... take a fucking Midol will you.

yes, I am very thin skinned. e-thin-skinned even.

so you can only know a chick if you are married? that makes sense...

I don't think you can know anybody, really, until you live with them, but marriage changes the relationship again, that's when a person's true colors come out.

Basically, your parents know you better than anyone until you get married (or live together for a pretty long time). Then your spouse/SO knows you better than anyone ever will.

I agree on that. And I have never lived with a girl. Don't plan on it for a looong time either. But I have had several lengthy relationships (1-2 years) and feel that I really knew those chicks. And I am not bitter about women, I am just intelligent enough to learn from patterns I have seen over and over and over and over and over and over in my experience. You'd have to be a fool to ignore your own experiences, especially when these patterns are so damn blatant.

haven't picked up a girl in a bar in a loooong time. and if I have, it was for nothing other than sex. so, wrong on that theory. these are chicks that are very successful in life/career.

LOL.

I think KB's post is being misunderstood. There was nothing negative about his post. Believe me, if there was, I know I would have been the first one to jump on it. It has nothing to do with where the woman is from or where he met her.

Everyone has their own little thing. If you pay attention to your partner you will notice it. For example, I know from listening, what 3 of my S.O's favorite shows are. Hence, I would likely get him the DVDs for those shows.

THe more you learn about your partner (marriage is irrelevant), you will pick up on these things.

lol...I guess I did missunderstand. I think that a certain person is attracting certain kind of the opposite sex most of the time. Like KB said that the patterns were all the same with the girls he's been with - same with me: all man that I used to go out with were like the one and same personality all over again

a) thanks NYC. you definitely would have been the first to jump on me, lmao.

b) I definitely attract the same type of girl and I know exactly why. I am pretty confident, easy-going (other than getting ragingly annoyed at every little thing or person in my life), independent and pretty damn mentally tough. this attracts the girls with security / body / whatever issues, cause I am the rock in their life. I am always there for them and I end up giving a lot of them some hope/inspiration (this is not meant to be cocky in the last bit). I definitely have learned this over the years.

I attracted only manipulative man that played reverse phychology on me. Maybe because I am always sweet, gullible and would do anything for the person I am with, so they were taking advantage of that.

Agreed, but I have to say this ties into a conversation my husband and I were just having yesterday because what you say is something I've heard other men say before on the boards when they make generalizations about women, you need to accept something about yourself:

When you date more than 3 women, and you see a repeated pattern of behavior in those women, then there is only one constant in those relationships, and that constant is YOU. Whether by design or subconsciously we pick the type of person we are attracted to. Women do it all the time, going back to the "bad boy" or the abuser, and everybody is very quick to point out "hey, stupid bitch, it's your dumb ass that is attracted to that type, so stop crying about your black eyes and how men are all dogs or stop choosing to go out with jerks."

But when men find themselves in repeated relationships with women who are shallow, materalistic, or slutty (or whatever pisses them off about their girlfriends/wives/SOs) they turn around and blame the whole gender. Noooo, it's the same as the chick with the black eye, it's the choices you're making.

It's a basic fact of human nature, you're going to find that certain behaviors go hand in hand with certain "types." You go after a cutsie, high maintenance bitch, don't get upset because she likes to spend money, go to the salon and go shopping. They don't get that cute without maintenance, and you can't do that kind of maintenance without LIKING to do it (just like a tricked out car, takes time and money to create that image).

Then take somebody like me, I'm whatever comes AFTER low maintenance, literally cannot remember when the last time I set foot in a salon was, I LOATHE, HATE AND DESPISE shopping, malls, my idea of a fun afternoon is a walk in the woods and the last time I wore makeup was to go to a christmas party. This is the way I am. But damned if there weren't a couple of guys in my life who wanted me to be a Barbi doll. I can do that once in a blue moon, but regularly :sick:
 
I'm glad I was born a man.

So you ladies are saying that NOT flapping the sheets isn't romantic?

So what about spending a week making a box out of paper mache' "sp?" and leaving inside it a 2k diamond tennis bracelet inside her car while she's at work on tuesday of August when nothings going on?

Yeah, the sex was great that week.

What's romantic?

When you ask or when you've been asked "how was your day" and you or they actually pay attention to the answer.

Dragging your ass to the ER at 2am mid asthma attack when you are in denial that you can't breathe and they have to get up to go to work in 4 hours and have yet to get some sleep.

Letting you have the last bite or sharing the last of something in the fridge or cupboard and it's their favorite.

And backup no matter how wrong you are or how bad your idea will be carried out.

Respect.
