are you a romantic

[maccrash]

I spent a bit trying to think of a good title for this but I couldn't. well, alas. are you a romantic? are you corny? do you fall for people easily? when you fall for someone do you shower them in sentimentality? when you're dating someone do you like cheesy gestures of love? all these questions and more can be answered by you in this thread. I'll answer later if there's enough demand for it. (; (I'm probably going to answer anyway, but I'd like to see you, PokeCommunity, interested in whether or not I'm a romantic.) (just kidding, I'm going to answer) (you don't have to be interested)

I don't know if I would use the term "romantic" in like the super gushy type of sense? I'm very reserved and modest and don't like PDA or showing my feelings, which some would consider romantic? Maybe? (edit: now that I think about it, this is mostly in public, I don't mind showing my feelings or being cutesy in private).

I am, however, very sentimental and like showing it in really small ways. I excel at gifts and I also know how to hit people with my words. So scrapbooks, letters - if I have to write it, it will be gushy and romantic. I think that's it - I'm romantic with my words while I lack in my gestures.

i guess i'm a pretty cheesy romantic person. i'm the kind of person that is all for stereotypical date ideas like going to the movies, going out to eat, etc. i dont know, i find it cute and it makes me happy to do stereotypical stuff like that lol.

I feel like I'm a terrible paradox in a lot of ways. The majority of the time I'm extremely guarded but put me in a relationship and I become a perpetual wave of sap and sentimentality.

That being said, I don't really fall for people easily and even subconsciously I'm too picky for my good. I don't think you could call be a romantic though, because even though I take love seriously and enjoy relationships I'm also very cynical about romance these days.

Actually, I'm genuinely curious here: is anyone here more of a PDA kind of person? Personally I would find that super embarrassing, but that's just me. u_u

i enjoyed a fair bit of exhibitionism back in my risque days LMAO but not around people
not really wanting to be carted off to jail thank you!
making out in public depended on the situation like.... public transport? nope. movie theatre? sure. but nowadays i have zero interest in physical shit of any kind so idk what i'd want today!

i am very much a romantic! i like expressing myself and i tend to veer towards sappiness at times but i own that. i want to make the other person feel good!
that being said until further notice all men should be wiped off the face of the planet

I don't think you could call be a romantic though,

I don't know if I'm romantic or not. Never had a chance to find out.

 

[Astinus]

It always surprises people, but I am a big fan of romance.

I read romance novels. I listen to love songs. I write romance stories. I watch romantic movies. Give me the sappy dates, the kisses and dances in the rain, the proclamations of "I love you" at dramatic moments while the music swells and the audience gets a tear in their eye. I always smile when I see couples holding hands and spending quality time with each other.

I love love.

Yet I have never experienced this with anyone. It's all just fantasy for me.

 

[Meganium]

According to astrology (lol), Scorpios tend to be extremely emotional. If they say they love you, they really mean it. That's how I have been with my current relationship.

And sometimes I'd rather show it instead of saying it. Because honestly I feel really cheesy saying "I love you" especially when there's people around. That's just me.

im a total romantic PDA-type that gets all the ladies

 

[Senjougahara]

Not really.

If it's just me by myself with someone else then I will act romantic
If that makes sense

PDA is a no too, unless it's just holding hands or something.

 

[Sheep]

yeeees spread the love. I get embarrassed watching romantic scenes in movies and whatnot but that's because it makes my heart flutter and I get flustered haha. I am an absolute romance nut.

I don't mind it, people give me hugs in the middle of crowds all the time.

I have a different kind of romance I suppose. I enjoy hugs and chatting to a cup of tea more than I would a night holding hands at the movies. The way to get to my heart is to lay on my shoulder and play Smash Bros :P

 

[Desert Stream~]

Nope :p not really. Kinda wierd being one of the only ones among my friends, but whatever.

I can come across kind of cold and uncaring when I'm tired or angry or I just don't want to talk to you. I'm fairly shy and I don't really like when someone comes up to me and starts blabbing about them and their stupid crap or asks me a bunch of questions when I don't even know their name. (This tends to happen to me when I go to a new place.)

But if I like you and want to be your friend, or if you already are my friend, then I am super duper sentimental and gushy and loving and all that crap. I will cuddle the heck out of any of my friends who let me (though of course I wouldn't get all touchy-feely with somebody who didn't want it, so usually I just present the option and if they take it then great!)

But when it comes to actual romance I just can't. It's not in my brain, I guess. I love my friend Alex more than I've ever loved anyone else in my life, but if he asked me out I'd be like "Whoa dude when I said I loved you I didn't mean that way!" I usually get that out of the way first thing so there's no awkward mixups. Setting the boundaries early avoids a lot of pain and confusion later on.

So I guess I'm like the equivalent of a romantic if it was only in a platonic way. I don't know if there's a word for that. If there isn't someone should make one up.

 

[Corrin]

Not really, I'm rather distant most of the time for some reason, if you hold a full conversation with me consider it a miracle.
