I have one friend who was JUST that! It does exist! It's not ALL about sex!

You're proving all the myths about the male of the species single handedly! Bravo!!

women were not on here to serve a man..and vice versa

people should take turns helping out with the house and dinner

not expect the woman to do everything and kiss ass

I agree with Kid, I also think that today, it's often misused.

active or attracted to?????

Who are you asking Gypsy?

ummmm muddy........he is basically saying that ppl only romance for the fact they want to get into your pants......I can actually see this and have but I dont think its 100% true......I like the movie When Harry Met Sally.....alot was true.

Can a man be a friend truly without wanting to sleep with her??? hmmmmmmmmmm ponderrrrrrrrrrrring

I've never seen it.


Yes, but the thought may cross his mind once or twice.

Gypsy, look at my friends list.




Yes.




(Please don't throw hard objects...)

someonwhere along these posts my point was lost in translation and Ive lost my train of thought. So ill summize.

1. Romance is not dead, many of us, including myself do partake and enjoy it. However, romance is a difficult concept to perform when having been burned so many times.

2. I never said women is here to 'serve man' In fact, Im probably one of the most 'pro womans lib' person know--not sure how you divulged that info from one of my posts (atm to lazy to go back and reread my stuff).

3. The term romance is so often miscontrued in its meaning that I wanted to post on what ppl are really looking for. When someone posts "Is romance dead and dying" and in there text they state things that they are looking for in a man..what they really should of meant when they posted the topic is "Looking for a sexually attractive person with a romanic personality"

WHAT???? I ADVICE ALL PEOPLE ON JSH TO RENT THAT MOVIE.....WHEN HARRY MET SALLY......IT HAS BILLY CRYSTEL IN IT!!! AND MEG RYAN!!!! A CLASSIC!!

as is "high fidelity"..(john cusack)

Therefore, without sexual attraction (and this makes perfect sence)..there cannot be this concept of romance. After sexual attraction is found...both parties must continually stimulate one another to keep the 'romance alive.'

So, topics that seek 'Romance' should be changed to better suit what ppl are looking for....Sexual attraction 1st...personallity 2nd. sexually involved with one another--that is the ONLY reason to date/marry someone.

so basically wut i gather from his is sex is more important then wut the person is all about the personallity isnt as important as getting *****

I deff stand by what I stated then. Romance is a concept exchanged between 2 ppl that are sexually involved with one another. Now in those RARE cases, such as When Harry met Sally :) then sure, platonic romance can deff blossom.

What im trying to say is that sexually attraction is the basis of how ppl meet/continue to persue a relationship.

You cant go on a blind date or some sort of event in the desire to find a mate based on personality first--you cant 'look' at someone and say, "my what a great personality"... 9 x outta 10 ppl will 'mingle' with someone they are attracted to at 1st, and 'hope' they got a great personality after conversing with them.

yes u can if u dont like the personality then your not gonna wanna connect to the person on any other level.

sexual attraction isnt the base..if u dont have anything in commin with a person then its just booty call.

What about blind people?
Personality has everything to do with it.

omg kid thank you

Geeeez.....no absolutes!!!!

73.996 % of men go on a date for the hopeful outcome of getting laid

22.004% of men dont...they are genuinely interested in the personality of the woman.

73.996% of women date men for the hopeful outcome of getting laid.

20.004% of women dont...they are genuinely interested in the personality of the man.

2 % of women are clueless why they go on a date with a man..







(I made ie all up..it's just bloody numbers...some people are real and genuine, and some aren't as evolved yet)

hahaha so true

some people actually want to have real realtionships

not the casual booty call
