I think that I do appreciate true romanticism - but it can feel stifling at times - I think wooing is great - so long as there is space for your partner to grow.
Love for me is more about the orbiting each others hearts, souls and minds than the 2 become 1 thing. Allowing the other to breathe, grow and find their sense of self. Combination of friendship, fellow travellers and two attracted beings as well as a deep understanding of our own self with that spark that electrifies us.
So romance has its place, but not as a replacement for depth.

I would try to define it my own way, but that seems to be close enough for me to say, yeah, something like that is good. I'd nibble away at the end bit, though, and suggest that romance can have depth to it. In fact, I think it's essential that it does sometimes. Oh, and one more bit, whilst the 2 become one thing is a bit sickly, I think it'd be good for the sum to be greater than the parts in some ways.

As we ALL say time and time again .... everyone is different. Personally what you described above is what I'd look for in a Best Friend. A relationship (and not a fleeting one) is all about (for me anyway) 2 becoming 1. Only then will you have true depth. Only then will you feel comfortable enough to 'grow' in the right way. Otherwise you may 'grow' apart !!!

My thoughts say 10 years ago or more would be more in-line with SunshineSuperman, now after the last relationship went scarily wrong I have all the barriers up. Though I still believe in knights, and perhaps there is an element of damsel in distress about me. So maybe it is my heart that wants love with no holding back, 2 become 1 thingy, yet my head says yeah but its going to go wrong so hold back.
Something for me to think about though.

Just thinking how I feel about my best friend and although I think the world of her, we definitely do not orbit each others heart!!
Seriously though as I said in reply to CharmingDave, I am probably more reserved, I still am not sure I could go down that road that you want to. I feel that for me it would be a bit panicky.
Who knows though, you certainly do ask challenging questions, so thanks for that.

I've never really thought about what love means to me. I've always thought that when its love, I'll just know.
And then I'll turn up on her doorstep with a dozen roses or something.

Love means never having to fetch your own beer from the fridge and in return make her breakfast in bed at weekends

Love is accepting someones faults and having them understand that romance is great and has its place in your life but when it really gets down to it you just want to have a special person in your life that you can go home to when things are really shite and they make you feel like a princess. Thats love to me

Here's what I found today... Wanted to start a new topic regardin "WHat is love (baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more 
)" but this is already here so...
"Being in love means more than being reigned by an overwhelming feeling - it means making a decision, judging, commiting through promise. If love would be just a passing feeling there'd be no base for the promise of loving someone forever. Feelings come and go. How could I promise forever if I'd base my judgement solely on feelings, without the use of mental judgement and character's will?"
Interestin, ain't it? It just seemed deep... I think. 
Movin' on... LOL
