The most romantic thing I ever did for someone was write a book for her and base one of the main characters on her.

I won't make THAT mistake again (probably)....

Hummm well unless it becomes a best seller then it would be worth it.....:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:


Yeah, that would ease the pain a little!

one time when i was watching my ex-wife cut the grass, the push mower cut out on her. so i told her to just forget it and sent her walking to the store for another six pack. well by the time she got back i had cleaned the spark plug and got the mower going so she could finish up with her chores. the romantic part was after she opened my beer i pull started the mower for her


lmao

I lived in a flat once were I had access to the roof - only this flat mind you, so it was kind of a private terrace in Edinburgh, viewing the castle, Calton hill and in the distance, Artur's seat.
On my girlfriend's birthday I prepared dinner while she was at work, and prepared everything up there, even keeping the food warm (tinfoil and blankets work wonders). Then I dressed myself smartly but pulled a robe over me and pretended to be sick when she arrived. She was obviously disappointed but pretty brave about it (I told her I had made a reservation at a fancy restaurant but had gotten a bad stomach ache).
When I suggested we'd buy takeout and watch a movie, but just go up for a quick glance at the sky first, she agreed halfheartedly. I climbed up first and made sure to direct her away from the table. Standing behind her I quickly got out of my robe, wrapped my arms around her, nibbled her neck and whispered "dinner's served, princess."

Romantic is in the beholders eyes, but one time an ex and I was walking past the WVU campus for some VERY unknown reason that escapes me at this moment. Anyhow , I spotted some purty posies within eyesight (but, past a fence. SHHHHHHHH!!!!). Without her knowledge I snagged the best one and gave it to her a bit down the sidewalk. A couple years ago I was taking a leak next to my garage while a tree of some sort was in full bloom and saw a nice, big, perfect flower on it. I retrieved it and took it right to her. HEY! It's the thought that counts. Right?

Hmmm...I've done lots of little things. One of the many romantic things my ex ever did was show up at my door in the middle of the night with his cd player, and we slow danced in the kitchen to Sting singing "My One And Only Love".

Now if he would have stood outside my window holding a boom box over his head, wearing a trench coat and playing Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes", that would have kicked *** too. lol "Say Anything" is a movie I can watch any day of the week.

blushing I have my moments. But, yet I hear about (even after break up) the times I did nothing special for 'holidays'. C'mon now! Don't random things more than make up for days where you're "supposed to" do stuff? I'd REALLY like to get a hold of Mr. Peabody and his WABAC machine so I can give Pope Gregory a piece of my mind about his calender idea! While I'm at it, I'll make a stop at Hallmark and tell them a thing or two!

Hi everyone!

To get this topic rolling, I will tell you what I did...

I'm quite simple yet romantic guy... Kind of "oldschool"...

So, I prepared a dinner by myself...

Menu:
Aperitif - (Italian) sliced tomatoes with mozzarella in olive oil with fresh basil and hot rolls.

Main dish - (my own recipe) King prawns with ginger in delicate lemon sauce.

Drinks - a glass of sweet white wine.

Dessert - a glass of dry red wine with chocolate chunks and small bites sweets.

I prepared my roles(heh, it was quite an acting) as a doorman, waiter, chef, waiter again, date and a massager...

After dessert a nice massage and hot bath with candles. (during the date in the background romantic and soft music was being played)

I was quite proud of myself, because I thought of everything! Ingredients were ready and all I had to do was to cook them. So no wandering around the kitchen looking for the frying pan ;P

To let you see how it looked like I post 2 photos ;) (The light was off all the time during the dinner - the only source were candles)




And unfortunately I can't prepare anything like that any more... Yea, being single sucks ;(



u can move in next door if you wish!! I'd be all over thatflowerforyou

My question is why do you take pics of that? Was that meant for a reminder to her? We all know, you can be with a woman for 70 years, be the most romantic, nicest, sweetest guy in the world every day and she'll forget. Leave the toilet seat up ONE time and she'll never let YOU forget!
