Just been talking about this with a few friends. Some said they can be romantic, some said they think its the mans job? Is doing their chores classed as romantic? Without the sexuall part ladies, what do you think? How can we be romantic?

Im always suspicious of posters addressing us as 'Ladies'.

People can be romantic, if they want to be.

HTH,

'Romantic' is in the eye of the beholder, really, once you know (and, hopefully, love) someone.
Also, though, surely 'being romantic' involves an element of risk - being vulnerable, taking risks, etc. - not in a crappy '50 Shades' 'Ooh, risky/risque' kind of way, but as in offering or creating or giving or doing something specifically for your special other that takes into account his or her delightful idiosyncracies....
So the most romantic gestures are probably things that other people wouldn't even be able to guess at! Wink Grin

Mumsnet is bizarre at the moment. Confused

I'm wonderfully romantic!!! I have an utter knack with seriously cool gift-giving and, if I really want to make a grown man cry, I serve custard.
