the more romance the better for me! it could be really simple thng like "i like the way uve done ur hair today" or noticing something nice about my personality. basically anything that shows your really interested and in love with me. (the love bit i mean if ur already going steady).
Or those little surprises, like being taken out because uve had a hard week, just having someone to share treats with, special times. Bring it on! lol

Its great to know a guy is keen and interested, it doesnt have to be expensive. Ive never rana mile yet but then Ive never been showered with it, I doubt I would even then, the general time I would run is if it becomes obsessional or possesive, a girl doesnt like to feel she is being bought

One of my ex boyfriends bought me a shit load of stuff...I was not impressed. I dumped him and gave him everything back, because I felt that he tried to buy me. Not good.

lol romantic to me (being a single parent of two kids, one six and one three) would be to offer to mind the kids while i had a sleep/bath/drink with mates/time to read something.

my ideal date would bring me to a nice place for something to eat followed by a bottle of rose. then maybe on to the cinema to watch a good movie, perhaps meet up with friends later just for the variety and then walk me home expecting nothing but hoping for everything.

oh oh and BLOODY WELL CALL ME AFTERWARDS!!! i always have that problem... "i'll text/call you" but for some reason they never do. there must be a reason for this. from what y'all can make of me, is there something wrong with my personality?

See romance for me isnt about gifts, its about going the extra maile for them

I love romance, it's the best game ever!!!

So "if you dont play games" maybe you should give it a go?

Right...
I shall now put you guys right on what is romantic and what is not. I think most of the girls on here will agree with me. If I have got it wrong tell me.

Romantic.....Telling her you love her because you feel it.
Not romantic...Telling her you love her in the hope you will get your leg over later.

Romantic.....a bunch of daisies you picked from the grass while laying in the sun with her.
Not romantic...a bunch of flowers bought at the petrol station as you were filling the car up.

Romantic....the note in the lunchbox that Aluria mentioned
Not romantic... long needy letters of undying love and devotion when you know it is not reciprocated/too early in the relationship.

Romantic...text messages saying you are thinking of her/Doesn't the moon look awsome/You cant wait for your next kiss.
Not romantic...Smutty innuendos.

Romantic...Sending anything by post (cards, notes, little pressies) This is especially good if addressed to 'The gorgeous (insert name), or my lovely (insert name) or something.
Not romantic...Providing your credit card when she is admiring something in Topshop.

So it is not all about money, expensive meals and cliches guys!!

guys like it when women are romantic too....

sure its not intentional but its sounding like women have the manoploy!!

for me is about putting yourself into the other persons mind.... thats why I referred to it as a game... all be it maybe a "good" one...

one persons mind cretainly isnt the same as anothers... spontaneouity really works like nothing else for me....

Well I agree with you Minks, it all works for me

Mrchappy, girls can be just as romantic, Im the one who sends little cards in the post, buys that silly cuddly toy because it reminds me of a comment/day out/ action etc. As much as I like to feel wanted and appreciated I like my guy to feel that way too
