When we hear the word romance, we draw idealistic pictures. A couple meets the sunrise on the seashore, having a late dinner with candles. Serenades under the window or poems composed for a loved one.
What is romance by definition? These are probably certain actions associated with the state of falling in love . But love passes, and so does the feeling of romance. Such a perception of the world can be permanent or temporary. Who is a romantic and how to recognize one?
Symptoms of Romanticism
People who idealize the world and do not notice the surrounding inconveniences have lived since ancient times. Romance is present everywhere: in music, books, films. Let's remember Alexander Green's story “Scarlet Sails” about the girl Assol. The girls, after reading the touching story, dream of meeting the prince. And it turns out that to romanticize means to believe, to dream . These sensations are the symptoms.

Romance manifests itself in the actions and relationships of a couple in love. A romantic man, unlike a non-romantic man, constantly organizes dates in which the main attributes are nature, flowers, beautiful and light things. Among the romantic actions we note:
singing songs under your beloved’s window; horseback riding; creating gifts with your own hands (typical of romantic girls); presenting cute little things (romantic cards, hearts, soft toys); reading your poems.
Romantic relationships are accompanied by flowers and unexpected surprises. Romantics are called frivolous and narrow-minded people. They don't know about practicality. Romantics live for today, look at the world through the prism of their worldview. But not all men are romantic by nature. They even came up with a special word for them, the antonym of romance is aromantic. But is it so bad to be unromantic?
What is "romance"?
I wanted to write a post about romance for various reasons - first of all, for myself: it always seemed that romance and I were in parallel universes, and I was damn interested in how other people looked at it. I asked two simple questions: “what is romance?” and “the most romantic moment in your life?”, received more than 25 responses from guys and girls from 17 to 30 years old and... I was pleasantly surprised. I was afraid to hear banal and expected answers, but in the end I read each story with interest. Yes, someone remembered flowers, candles, sunsets, but there were also completely non-standard answers - about childhood, about friends, about hikes and parties... In short, I won’t bore you with a long preface - let’s read already)
Anastasia, 21
For me, romance is definitely not in some loud actions, but in the little things, in the attitude itself - in gentle words, touches, sudden cute gifts and flowers, in stupid jokes that only you understand. Wine on the balcony at the perfect sunset, a walk by the sea, a dinner cooked together - everything becomes romantic when your ordinary life looks like a prolonged honeymoon.
Since I see romance not as an episode but as a process, it is difficult for me to choose one moment. Yes, there were some very well-timed gifts of flowers, beautiful places, words and actions, but all of them clearly do not qualify for the title of the very same one. Therefore, I will probably say that it has not yet arrived.
Vladimir, 30
What is romance to me? Many people attribute words, things and actions to romance; for me, romance is always the feelings that you and the person close to you experience.
Romance also changes over time. Romance now is caring, attention to detail, understanding, “magic of situations.” Previously, there were crazy and stupid actions, obsession with ideas. Even earlier there was timidity, embarrassment, dreams, guesses... Most of all I like the perception of romance now!
The most romantic moment in your life? It's more complicated. You can describe several, but the brain has already made its own adjustments to each memory. So I'll talk about the future. About how I imagine a romantic moment. It cannot be planned, written down on a “to do sheet” or marked on a calendar. It could be in Bora Bora, or it could be on the shore of Glass Bay. After all, romance is not in place and time, romance is in people. Inside.
It happens suddenly, just like the sea wind. It just feels good, quiet, calm. You just understand that everything is as it should be. Everything is in its place. A moment that could last forever.
Alisa, 17
For me, romance is poetry that slips into life, a person’s need to express the most beautiful and reverent feelings, as well as imparting special solemnity to insignificant situations, the memory of which will then warm the soul for a long time.
I can probably say that the most romantic moment was one summer evening. Then my best friends and I sat around a fire in the forest in our hiding place (only we knew about this place), drank disgusting red wine, fried sausages on the fire because we didn’t have enough money for a barbecue, and baked potatoes from our grandfather’s garden in the coals. We had a guitar, we sang songs based on Yesenin’s poems, and I also read my own poems. And then we walked home through the forest, holding hands, and it was terribly dark. This has nothing to do with falling in love, but it is romance in my understanding. This is friendship, this is a fire, a guitar, poetry, empty pockets and the taste of sour wine.
Alexey, 25
Romance for me is probably a set of the right actions and some feelings that happened at the right moment in time between the right people. Probably something like this... Yes. Somehow it became official. Romance doesn't have to go hand-in-hand with love; it can happen with complete strangers. This is a super sweet and sweet moment that arose due to the right coincidence of circumstances. Romance can very often be associated with a moment of surprise and unexpectedness, this, by the way, can be very cool and enhances this romantic feeling.
The most romantic moment... It's difficult. In fact, I haven't had many of these moments lately. The last one was a gift for February 14th (I never understood this holiday). My girlfriend (at that time we were still dating) agreed with my friend at work and slipped me a postcard with a photo from our trip to Telyakovsky Bay (we are standing there together in the photo), it was damn sweet and romantic. I was extremely delighted, really.
Even when I was studying at the university, I ran around and pasted posters with various cute phrases for my then girlfriend on the walls of the building. It was cool. It was a surprise for her. Previously, I was somehow more bothered by all this. We need to start again!
Elizaveta, 21
Romance for me is remembering the little things that make your loved one happy, hugging even when you had a fight. Romance is when you always want to see joy on a person’s face and make unexpected surprises.
Most romantic thing you've ever done? When, over a very beautiful dinner with a huge bouquet of my favorite flowers, I was invited to live with them in Singapore.
Alina, 24 years old
Nowadays, romance for me means something that only brings warm and comfortable feelings. When both feel so good at a given moment in time that it seems as if their hearts are beating in rhythm and calmly. Unlike passion. And I also realized that romance is a state. After all, if you don’t like the person who does romantic things, nothing will work out.
When people ask me about the most romantic moment in my life, I always remember the one that was not for me, even though I participated in it. Back in school, I helped a friend line up heart-shaped candles on the asphalt at night, and then, while he was leading his friend to the designated place, I lit them with a lighter, which was malfunctioning. For the girl it was exciting, unexpected and beautiful. From my own life I can remember a moment when we were driving all night in a car with a young man (we had just met), the song “Cuckoo” was playing, we were both silent, and it felt so good. Recently there was a similar pleasant moment when we watched the sunset together. The sound of the surf, the wind, some words, and complete unity.
Lisa, 23
Romance is when two people have beautiful light and feelings for each other. Nothing else.
Most romantic moment? We climbed over the fence to go down closer to the sea, it was a bright orange sunset, in our hands we had notebooks for 3 rubles, in which we had already outlined a “sea battle”. We played it until the sun finally set.
Anna, 21
For me, romance is divided into two parts: material and intangible. The first category includes bouquets of sweets and evenings with dinner by candlelight. In the second - sweet compliments, touching poems and letters, gentle touches. Undoubtedly, both categories are united by a reverent feeling for a person, a desire to do something pleasant, to create an unforgettable moment for two that will remain in everyone’s memory for a long time.
The most romantic moment in my life cannot be classified in the first category, I don’t know whether it’s unfortunately or fortunately. and in general, one might say, I have no experience of “material” romance. But when on a cold night he hugs you close to him, covers you with three blankets, breathes on your hands, gently and lightly kisses you on the cheek or nose to warm you up and protect you from the whole evil and cold world, you feel the happiest on Earth.
Ilya, 29
For me, romance is the unity of two people. When you can just look at each other, say nothing at all and just enjoy.
The most romantic moment for me was when I was sitting in the kitchen of a girl I had known for a month and a half, and I was so filled with euphoria that I simply said: “Will you marry me?” - and she agreed. And all this without taking their eyes off each other.
Daria, 18
Romance is an action that tells you more about a person's feelings than words. Something very sweet, pleasant and warm to the heart.
The most romantic moment in my life was during a terrible snowfall, when the city was in traffic jams, people abandoned their cars on the roads, and my boyfriend walked 2.5 hours from one end of the city to the other just to be with me that day.
Lyana, 24
Romance... It's when it's warm and cozy, and also magical.
I prefer “mosquito romance” in the forest by the fire, warm hugs from friends and songs with a guitar. But the most romantic moment for me was in childhood: due to poor wiring, any strong gust of wind or rain would cut out the lights in our house. So, when there was no light, we lit candles, poured tea and mom took out a guitar and sang for us. This is the BEST romantic childhood memory: warm, cozy and magical.
Valeria, 24 years old
I never imagined romance the way books and films describe it, I never dreamed of a serenade under the window or a bath with rose petals. For me, romance is more about emotions and sensations than about generally accepted flowers, toys, scented candles, and so on. For me, it’s romantic to ride a moped together, sit with a bottle of wine and laugh at stupid jokes (that only you understand), cook dinner together at home (also accompanied by music) or ride bicycles, just enjoying the moment. Romance can be found in everyday things! Perhaps romance is a dream of beauty, and everyone has their own ideas about beauty)
The most romantic moment of my life was when we climbed to the top of a Buddhist temple to watch the sunrise. We entered the temple without tickets and without permission at 4 am.
Nastya, 24
The first thing that comes to mind when we mention romance is a frame from the cartoon “Lady and the Tramp”, where the main characters eat pasta with meatballs (by the way, this very picture hung in our apartment twenty years earlier). But if you look at the definition of this word from the point of view of life experience and current attitude, then for me romance is the ability to get a thrill from being next to a loved one and at the same time not filling the silence with empty chatter.
There have been few romantic moments in my life, alas. But one episode from ten years ago is etched in my memory irrevocably. I'm 15, and my then-boyfriend, having heard about my logical chain between "romance" and "Lady and the Tramp", decided to treat me to a romantic dinner. There were candles, there was spaghetti in tomato paste, there were meatballs the size of my head and his friend (unexpectedly). And all this ridiculous action, then and now, causes me tenderness and is rightfully called romance.
Margarita, 24 years old
“What does the concept of romance mean to you? Tell me about the most romantic moment in your life?”... I re-read these questions at least 10 times. And I caught myself thinking that I couldn’t give a clear definition, and, as it turned out, I couldn’t single out any specific event in life that would be called “the most.” Google says that it is something that contains ideas and feelings that elevate a person. And you know, I agree with this. It “lifts me up” when he wakes up before me (always), makes me coffee and leaves it on the table so that I wake up and can drink it right away. When I get out of the car and he pats me on the butt, like, “Hey baby, have a nice day.” When I call him in tears and mutter something incomprehensible about being stuck on a climb in icy conditions, and a minute later he comes running out of breath and scared, because he didn’t understand what happened and thought that I was hurt. When he watches his ill-fated football at night and turns the volume down because I fall asleep, although sometimes it seems to me that he loves football more than me. These are the most romantic moments in my life. This is romance: doing small and big things every day for the comfort and smile of your person, even if these are absolutely ordinary situations. And if they asked me if I would like to replace all this with a billion red roses given to me in a hot air balloon over the Pacific Ocean with a Whitney Houston song playing in the background, I would put my cold hands under the blanket because I was cold and say would be "no". And just so you understand, he hates it when I do this, but he endures it gritting his teeth. Because for love.
Katya, 23
Probably, I may somehow interpret this concept differently, but for me, romance is when some things happen to you for the first time, and the world seems so rosy because of it that you experience the brightest emotions. For example, a bouquet as a gift is not romantic, but if it was collected with your own hands, then it is already very romantic! One day they drew flowers for me in a graphics editor because I was in a long-distance relationship, and that was also super romantic. He, of course, could order delivery, but there would be no romance here, I think.
I could talk about various surprises, about trips to expensive restaurants and so on, but this cannot compare with those emotions when I really wanted to part with him. This was perhaps the most romantic moment. We went down to the subway, at that moment, it seemed to me that our relationship had outlived its usefulness and no longer meant anything to me. We started swearing and arguing. I can’t stand it and say: “That’s it. Enough". He is perplexed: “is that enough?” “All this is enough. “I’m tired,” I say, and he starts calling me different cute words. I start crying from the feeling that the person really loves me very much, but I can’t help myself. I wanted too much, it wasn’t mine - it seemed to me at that moment. We are standing on the platform, a train arrives, the doors open, and... you know, these cute couples who love to make out while standing on the subway, who still irritate everyone, save relationships that are about to be on the brink. I look at them and think: this is how cool they are. In a split second I imagine what will happen if I go home alone, that I will go and cry, then I imagine that for the most part I had a good time with this person, that perhaps not everything is lost and that I can’t just love him take it and let it go... the train leaves, I turn to my boyfriend and hug him tightly. “Not today,” I thought. Here it is for me, romance: a platform, several trains passing by, people running, fussing, and I understand that my person is with me. Almost two years have passed since then and we are still together. And I think this is the most romantic thing that has ever happened to me
Anastasia, 27
For me, romance borders on falling in love and love, since without these two components it is not possible to fully experience romance.
One of the most romantic moments was when my boyfriend (now my husband) met me from a trip with flowers at night and took me to a restaurant. But the romance didn’t end there: he suddenly decided to tell me that he had lost our dog! Naturally, I could no longer sit or eat - we got ready and went in the middle of the night to look for the dog.
And how, by the way? Found it?)
Yana, 19
The most romantic moment of my life? It’s impossible to name it right away. Moreover, everything that is more or less connected with relationships flies out of my head. Maybe because there was simply nothing romantic?
I remember the social canons of romance: 101 roses, candles, sweets, poems, songs under the window. Yes, it seems that I managed to partially receive the first, and the second, and the third... And flowers begin to flash in my head, a jar of sour cream that is not typical for gifts as a set for strawberries, notes in bags and pockets, hearts on the dirty windows of my car, his mother’s homemade cakes, which They kept dragging me around. Nothing big. Nothing outstanding or standing out from the usual flow of life. Nothing that I could call the Most Romantic Moment, but what I consider to be romance.
Romance is the desire to please and express one’s feelings, a spiritual impulse (it’s unlikely that we planned to go draw on glass and throw notes). “Making you happy tenderly and beautifully...” - as in the song. You can make yourself happy by buying, for example, a hairdryer, of course, but can we call it a spiritual impulse?
Why do I remember not the traditional large bouquets, candlelit dinners, boxes of sweets, but the undoubtedly pleasant little things? It is in them that care and tenderness for the person you love are especially manifested. Not in ordinary strawberries, but in sour cream for them! Because he knows that you love strawberries with sour cream.
Alexandra, 21
Perhaps I don’t have a completely classical understanding, but for me romance = care. When they cover you at night, when they warm your hands, when they remember some little things that are important to you.
The most memorable moment was a few years ago. There was severe bad weather, and I was lying at home and was terribly hungry for something sweet, which is what I said in the correspondence. After some time, a call rang with the words: “Well, it’s cold here. Come down” (by the way, we are talking about a Russian island, in the Far Eastern Federal University) They hand me a chocolate bar, and then another bag of sweets. For some, this is a small thing, but we were just starting to communicate, and I especially remember this moment. Since then there have been many more pleasant moments, but I remember this one with particular warmth.
Julia, 28
Romance for me is an impulse. An action that needs to be done at a given moment in time. So that this moment “plays” and penetrates into consciousness.
One of these moments happened quite recently. We were in an argument with a guy. She was offended. The day before I said how great it would be to dance on the street at night. And so we met, talked... And then he took me by the hand, turned on the music in the car and we danced right on the balcony of the parking lot. And this was especially memorable because it was very timely.
Katya, 20
Romance is inspiration. Something that can really inspire me to do different things: from emotions to creativity. Relationships without romance turn into a real routine and lose their colors. And she is the one who can fix everything. Romance is the key to happiness. After all, it is with her that everything begins, without her the spark of love and the first awareness of the feeling of love will not slip through, this is a fact. If you keep it for a long time, I’m sure there will be no obstacles to happiness.
Most romantic moment? Can I have several? All these are little things that made me happy several times in a row, such bright flashes in my everyday life.
The last thing I remember was yesterday evening, when I madly wanted lilacs and my boyfriend diligently collected the most beautiful bouquet for me in May, gave it to me, we stood for a few more seconds under the windows of the house, laughed, and then “let's go? / let’s go,” but.. To get down as quickly as possible, and not go back and go around again, you had to go through the nettles. I’m in a floaty skirt and shoes, he takes me in his arms and carries me until we reach the sidewalk. Care. The captivating scent of lilac. Evening coolness. I remember and smile.
I will also never forget how, on the theater square near the fountains with color music, three years ago my first love (soloist of the ballet company of the musical theater) invited me to dance. It was May, very warm. Everyone was sitting on benches or on the lawn, but the square itself and the space next to the fountain were empty. Back then, the music was playing the kind that you really wanted to dance to, and the atmosphere was magical... Maybe this inspired him? He stopped me, stood opposite me, extended his hand, I answered him - and here we are dancing. Thanks to him, my dream of learning to dance the waltz well came true.
Danil, 22
Romance for me is doing such actions or saying such words that make your other half experience the warmest and most tender feelings
The most romantic moment was this winter, when my girlfriend and I admitted that we loved each other. She came to my unit (I serve in Vladivostok), we sat in the car and talked for a long time about nothing, and then suddenly they started talking about us. It was difficult for both of us to admit this, since at that time we had only been dating for a relatively short time, but in the end everything turned out very nice. It meant a lot to us, just to say these words out loud to each other, which actually carry a lot of meaning.
Nastya, 22
Romance for me is closely connected with a young man. These are feelings that make you think, rethink, enjoy and be inspired. In a romantic moment, when I get goosebumps, I understand how much I love and am ready to give everything I have
Most romantic moment? We were once outside the city. Wrapped in a blanket, they sat in an embrace on the porch, looked at the stars and were simply silent. He held me tightly to him and kissed the top of my head. It was romantic.
Polina, 22
Romance is the little things that you don’t want to share, notes on the refrigerator, daisies on the windowsill, words spoken at the right time, comfortable silence when you bring a blanket to the balcony, even if you had a fight. And, of course, understanding without words. I think this is the most romantic moment when you just understand each other.
The most romantic moment... It was a loved one whom I saw off to America forever. Before leaving, he gave a gift in the form of Ray Bradbury’s book “Dandelion Wine”, and on the last page there was an inscription: “Even if in old age I lose my memory, I always want to remember how you smiled when you received daisies as a gift.” And an embedded chamomile instead of a bookmark.
Emin, 27
Romance? It doesn't mean anything, it's a damn cliché. You and your girl either have a blast every time or you don’t. Either you smile when you look at her, or you don't. Either you enjoy every second and think about your luck next to her, or not.
I had a moment in my life. My girlfriend and I watched a movie together while lying in bed. She pauses the movie and “the black dot on your nose pisses me off.” And he starts trying to squeeze it out :) then he cleanses my face with lotion and makes masks for me) It was cool)
Julia, 22
It’s difficult to simply answer the question: “what is romance?”, because for me it is primarily a moment. It could be a sunset going into the depths of the sea, or the lights of a night city, or the starry sky above... Or, as the word “romance” is most often understood, it is signs of attention from a loved one: dancing together to your favorite music, meeting after work, long walks, dinner by candlelight...
Several years ago, I was an extremely romantic person, but this “romance” only manifested itself when I had a loved one nearby, but now I understand how multifaceted it is. I realized this thanks to the current young man. I fiercely believed that he was not at all romantic, since he did not give flowers, did not make surprises, and generally did not do anything that, in my understanding, fell into this category. And then he told me that “his romance” is wet asphalt after rain, in which the lights of lanterns and cars play. Then I myself felt the romance of the moment.
We can consider this to be one of the romantic moments in life, of which there were quite a lot, if you think about it carefully. And it’s hard to say which one is “the best”: admiring the sunset on the roof together, slow dancing to my favorite song, or these lantern lights. All this is “my romance.”
Anastasia, 25
Romance is about feelings! It doesn’t just happen: you gave flowers at random or wrote “100 reasons why I love you” on a piece of paper and it’s romantic, no. You must feel it, you must understand for whom and why you are doing this. Romance is a mood, it can come and go. Everything is sudden. It's simple. I know one thing: when you’re in this mood, you’re ready to move mountains and collect stars from the sky, or just read Yesenin’s poems and drink wine on the roof. The main thing is the moment, feelings, spontaneity.
I will never forget the most romantic moment in my life, it was on my 25th birthday! We were getting together with our girlfriends at my house - and there was wine, pizza, intimate conversations... But suddenly I felt that they were hiding something from me, turning their phones upside down, exchanging glances, looking at their watches suspiciously. “Hmmm...” I think, “why would that be?” And then there was a deafening knock on the door (I thought the door was going to be taken off its hinges, they were knocking so hard). I open it - and there everything sparkles with sparklers and some sparkles, shouting to me in the confusion: “quickly blow out the candles on the cake, put on your shoes and come out!” I, not understanding what is happening here, go out into the entrance and see a huge box from the refrigerator and my friend says - “you said that the refrigerator was broken, here you go!” A couple of seconds pass, I stand in a stupor, the guys start shouting “happy birthday!”, the box breaks, and my best friend comes out of it with flowers and a bottle of champagne. And the most romantic thing about this is that he flew in from Sakhalin for three days, just for my birthday, so that I would smile and be next to him on this day. I was happy, words cannot describe how happy I was. And, as it turned out, some guys were preparing this insidious plan with him for a week, and I didn’t even suspect anything. This is how it happens, and it’s not even a relationship or strong feelings, it’s just friendship, just some kind of “wrong romance,” probably.
Arina, 24
The first, clichéd associations with the word “romance”: a candlelit dinner on the roof of a building; a stunning bouquet for no reason, sent from a business trip; the desire to get up early and, while HE sleeps, cook his favorite breakfast? I'm not sure about this answer. My romance is determined by the person: any moment is romantic if I am next to someone I am truly in love with and who reciprocates my feelings. If the main ingredient is missing, then you want to resell the gorgeous bouquets for several thousand rubles at the metro station, and not put them in a vase at home (sarcasm).
Thus, there is simply no “most” romantic moment in my life. There was a period when I was in love and my feelings were reciprocated and it was all saturated with romance.
Daria, 21
I think it’s a mistake to think that romance is some kind of external paraphernalia like candles or sunset. It is a mistake to think that romance can only concern two people in love. It seems to me that romance can be experienced both alone and just with loved ones. For me, romance is such a subtle, barely perceptible wave that you need to tune in to. The kind of wave that lifts you above the ground for some moments. And you understand that this moment will remain in your memory.
If you delve into your memories, there were many most romantic moments. Here I am 16, I leave the house and go to the sea. With Sia headphones on, anticipation of something wonderful in my soul, complete serenity in my head. It smells like the sea, it’s so easy to breathe.
Here I am, 17. Last trip to nature with the class. We dance with the girls in a circle to some children's song "Lanterns", and at the end we start crying and hugging. Everyone seems to sharply understand that this will not happen again.
Here I am 21. Moscow, evening. My classmates and I are preparing a skit for tomorrow’s acting class. We laugh at some line in the text and the comedy of the situation. And something clicks, and I understand that I will definitely save this moment in my memory... Romance can be different. She is always inside, never outside.
Pitfalls of romance
An idealized attitude towards the world often fails romantics. Remember the first weeks and months spent with your loved one. We notice only the positive aspects, being in a separate world of love and harmony. This period is called falling in love . Romantics experience such feelings all the time, so they often make mistakes in choosing their soulmate. Idealizing a loved one at the beginning of a relationship, they then come across the negative aspects of their partner. The pitfalls of romance are disappointment, pain and life mistakes
Temporary or true romantic?
A true romantic behaves this way not only in relationships; his worldview spills over into other areas. Romanticism is transferred to the way of life, war, travel. Images are created that are far from the true state of affairs. These are stern warriors saving oppressed peoples, brave travelers. With closer acquaintance with a specific activity, the veil of romanticism and the images drawn fall away.
It is at this stage that you can find out whether you are a temporary or a real romantic. If disappointment comes and illusions go away, then the field of activity was attractive because of the pictures and images drawn. A true romantic person will not pay attention to difficulties and obstacles. Traveling through the thickets of the forest, you will not notice insect bites, cuts from plants, or the lack of basic amenities. A romantic will have no time to pay attention to such trifles . After all, there are unusual trees all around, the songs of strange birds are heard, and the silence and mystery of the forest is mesmerizing.
A romantic man - what is he like?
The prevailing stereotypes have turned any giver of daisies into a romantic. Under the mask of romance, weak personalities, wimps or rude men are often hidden. If you were promised paradise in a hut and presented with a bouquet of wild flowers, this does not mean that this is a romantically inclined guy.
A romantic man is polite with women, courteous and not aggressive
What kind of romantic man is he? Let's try to decide. Romantic man:
ready for a serious relationship. The main thing for a romantic is love . He is responsible for the relationship, so he does not waste time on trifles. presents unexpected surprises and gifts. She does not reject material goods and does not reduce gifts to a bouquet of daisies. He tries to establish financial flow in order to please his beloved with jewelry and travel. well-mannered and courteous . Even if such qualities were not previously noticed in a man, then when he meets a single woman, he turns into a gallant gentleman. attentive to a woman. A romantic man knows better than others about the tastes of the girl he loves. Takes into account the interests and wishes of the beloved. A romantic has the same attitude towards loved ones. A man does not allow them to be discussed, offended, or called bad names.
It’s easy to recognize a romantic, just watch their behavior. Not all romantics dress in white shirts and have long hair. The main factor is behavior. A romantic man is courteous, polite towards women, does not show aggression and does not raise his hand to a girl

Who is a romantic?
So who is a romantic? This is a person who takes things lightly and sees exclusively positive aspects in others. A true romantic is not deterred by difficulties and mistakes in life . He continues to exist in an idealized world and admire what a practical, so to speak, non-romantic person does not see.
Romanticism lives separately in the literary and artistic world, which depicts brave, rebellious and creative individuals. From here came the non-existent images with which we compare every person who calls himself a romantic. In fact, these are not fans of Shakespeare, lovers of moonlit walks and stupid people. Romantics are sincere individuals who let everything pass through their hearts and have their own view of current events.
Quotes about Love with meaning
* In the presence of the object of love, the boldest lips become numb and exactly what one would like to say remains unspoken. Cervantes Saavedra Miguel de
* If you want a woman to continue to love you, try to instill in her the idea that you are delighted with her beauty. If she is in a red dress, praise the red dress; if she is in a dress made of light material, say that it suits her. If she is wearing gold jewelry, tell her that she is more precious to you than gold; if she decides to wear a suit made of winter material, praise her for it. If she comes up wearing just a shirt, shout: “You’re burning me!” and in a pleading voice ask her not to catch a cold. If her hair is skillfully combed into two braids, admire that it is combed into two braids; if that hair is curled, praise the curl. Admire her hands when dancing and her voice when she sings, but if she stops, show regret that she stopped singing early. Ovid Naso Publius
* Sometimes loving well means hating well, and righteously hating means loving. Erasmus of Rotterdam
* Of the two human passions - love and hatred - it is love that has the greatest tendency to excess. It is fiery, and therefore stronger and more durable. The more passionately love is inflamed, the more merciless it is towards everything that hinders and threatens it; it gives hatred freedom to act in more than one direction, and thereby frees a whole squad of evils from their shackles; after all, love gave birth to those unfortunate seeds from which the fire of Troy subsequently emerged. Descartes Rene
* Do you think that someone who hates himself can love someone? Erasmus of Rotterdam
* It is better to know less and love more than to know more and not love. Erasmus of Rotterdam
* Love should not cloud, but refresh, not darken, but brighten thoughts, since it should nest in the heart and mind of a person, and not serve only as fun for external feelings that generate only passion. Milton John
* Love wears glasses through which copper appears as gold, poverty as wealth, and drops of fire as pearls. Cervantes Saavedra Miguel de
* There is no such hard work that love would not make not only easy, but even enjoyable. Bruno Giordano
* Just as love without respect is short-lived and fickle, so respect without love is cold and weak. Johnson Benjamin
* The Roman Cato said that the soul of a lover lives in the soul of the beloved. I would say that in the soul of a lover there is the whole soul of the beloved, his whole life, character and actions. This is a question similar to where does beauty live - in the desert or in the soul of a Bedouin? Neither here nor there, for beauty is nothing more than the ability to explain to oneself its imaginary presence. Love is not a fact, it is only a desire to have such a fact if possible. Because of this, all her conflicts and troubles, problems and inconveniences associated with her. Love is like a ray of sunshine: visible, close, present, it is not given to anyone who tries to take it. Plutarch
* To be loved, be worthy of love, and this will not be given to you by an exceptionally beautiful appearance or a slender figure. You must combine physical beauty with the gift of the mind. Beauty is an unreliable advantage: the more you try, the more it fades, time itself makes it fade. Violets and purple lilies do not always bloom; On the flower stem of a rose, when the petals fall, only thorns remain. And you, handsome man, will soon have gray hair, and in due time the wrinkles that furrow your face will come. Try to form the mind into something durable and make it an assistant to beauty: only the mind will remain with us until the grave! Ovid Naso Publius
