How romantic are you?

-Red-Flag- · 01-15-2014, 01:28 PM

I am not. I fall short every time.

I need to get on the stick and quick.

I have my moments. With the right femme.

I think I use to be, and could be with the right person (the last too we're not right) I'm rusty and should probably work on it. Lacking in romance but not in passion.

Hmm Romantic! I can empty the dishwasher, make the bed, mop the floor, do any number of everyday chores and Red smiles and says that's why I love you!

MasterfulButch · 03-23-2014, 10:14 AM

I'm an innovative romantic. It's important to me to make my lady feel special but I don't like to run with the crowd. I may produce the traditional bouquet of red roses once but then it's been done.

Seeking ways to surprise and delight my girl in ways that are unique and meaningful to her gives me much satisfaction.

I would even extend it out to say that romance is a part of my identity. It came with the Butch Chivalry pack and is a facet of myself I feel honoured to have the chance to use.

I happened to think of you today,
for the first time in a long time.

I remembered that spring
spending hours getting to know you,
crossing your years and mine;
across the continuum
it seemed, drawing closer
to you with each passing day
until I knew I wanted you with
everything that I am.

To me, that's everything...

I had never met anyone like you,
and I was so carried away
by your presence
and grace and your voice
and words and...

You took me by storm
and off to that place of
of wanting you to be the one
who kissed me goodbye
for the last time.

Oh, the thought of you.

I was so sure.

And I had fallen so deeply
in love with you that

"The very thought of you
and I forget to do
the ordinary things
that I ought to do..."

which was to see
and to know that
you never once
loved me until it was
too late in that old dance.

But I have let go of you
a thousand times,
a thousand ways.

And this writing,
is to express my closure
in the smallest way really,
and only because

tonight

I had a very rare thought of you.

Romantic for me, isn't the big gestures. It's something that quietly surprises me. Someone bought a bicycle for me, once. She didn't say it was for me, and I assumed it was another one she'd bought for herself, since she kind of collected them. She assembled it in the dining room, in the middle of winter, and I helped a little, but it was really her thing. Then, when she was done, she kind of presented it to me. I was confused at first, then I realized, she was giving it to me. It's that kind of quiet gesture, that seems most romantic to me.

Aud · 03-23-2014, 03:11 PM

Yes, I think I'm very romantic, but I don't like to show it. If I'm smitten, I'm going to be writing you poetry and songs that I'll NEVER show you, lest you know how lame I am. I'm just way too protective of my charred lil damaged heart to risk a stomping, until I'm certain I'm loved & appreciated in return. Even then, I do need to remind myself that I should verbalize those feelings/people need to hear the I love you's, because I do think talk's cheap --I would rather show my love in consideration and sacrifice.

Sweet Bliss · 03-23-2014, 04:32 PM

Me ROMANTIC???

after casting my pearls to swine for all these years,

Hell freaking no.

No more catering to ya.

No more meals made with homemade love.

No more secret trips to the store to surprise you with the perfect birthday gift.

No more fussing over you when you are not well or just cranky.

No more homemade cookies.

No more cooking awesome breakfast, lunch and dinners.

No more cleaning, laundry, ironing, mending, sewing, etc.

No more back scrubbing in the shower.

No more of the hundreds of things I do everyday to make this house a home to come to after a long stressful day at work, where your needs are met and then some.

Me romantic???

Now that's romantic. (said with your head under the covers)
