Or their name is Frances.

I can't believe I know that.

Let's say I lived in the UK would you meet me for a beer?

 

[the last son]

Beer was the wrong choice. Just for a bite to eat

Especially because... I don't!

Depends where in the UK.

If you lived in the same city I might meet up as friends.

But I think it's weird to meet up with someone you only know from the internet if it's a long journey to do so. It's a lot of effort, and puts a weird kind of pressure/expectation on it.

I mean, I might do it if say Anita was going to be in the UK and I could try and meet up with her... but i'm pretty sure she wouldn't be in any way after sex

What's the most romantic thing a guy has ever done for you?

Nothing. Ever.

 

[the last son]

Really? I wasn't trying to be rude

 

[Erzengel]

Little advice. Grand gestures are great for proposals, birthdays, Christmas.

It's always the little things. Maybe picking up take out after she's been working all day. Taking her hand when you're crossing the street. Having an umbrella handy in the rain.

I dunno, i'm trying to think harder...

My ex bought me a ring from argos (not an exciting place to get a ring from). A crazy guy who was in to me bought me a necklace for my birthday but I wouldn't take it... cause he was crazy. A local in the pub I worked in once bought me flowers to cheer me up.

But yeah... that's all I can think of!

Just not had anyone love me enough for that.

 

[the last son]

Most romantic thing I've ever done was sending flower to my ex job

 

[hopefuldreamer]

I think whether romance goes down well depends on how much you like the person, which is why I think you should wait until your official and have established you both like each other before doing it.

I mean, if a guy I wasn't too sure about sent me flowers at work, it'd probably feel like a bit too much and it'd put me off.

But if a guy I was in the honeymoon phase with did it, i'd be elated

 

[the last son]

Got her a really nice cake for her birthday. We were already broken up by then

 

[hopefuldreamer]

I think I prefer romantic gestures that are really personal as well.

Just getting someone a bunch of flowers isn't that romantic. Getting them a bunch of their favourite flowers because they were talking about them the other day and you knew she'd love them... It's just better, you know?

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Actually thinking about it, this current guys probably given me more romance than anyone.

A spontaneous foot rub cause he thought they looked sore and i looked tired.

A back rub to help me sleep.

Feeding me chocolate cake.

Yeah, he's probably winning on the scales compared to any other guy i've been with.

 

[Erzengel]

One time my wife was sick and threw up all over the floor. I cleaned it up. That's love.

Some guys are generally good at romancing at woman. But other guys use these things for evil AKA only to get into a girls pants. But I am sure you can sense when someone is being real and when they are faking it for sex. I know I broke guy code there but hey LOL.

 

[the last son]

Guys don't do things just to get into pants. Only me.

 

[Schlosser85]

Uh you're far from the only guy who does things just to get into pants. Not that it's okay, but melodramatically vilifying yourself (while saying everyone else is doing it) isn't constructive.

 

[Anita18]

I don't get excited at all over gifts, so the most romantic things my husband has ever done for me is service-related. Weeks before our wedding, he noticed I was stressed about schoolwork, and asked on his own if there was anything he could do to help.

This is a big deal because my husband never notices ANYTHING. You could repaint the walls and he probably wouldn't notice. But he notices when I'm stressed and asks if he can help.

 

[Anita18]

Also TLS, part of maturity is knowing when to quit because it's not good for you in the long-term. Just because these women throw themselves at you, doesn't mean it's in your long-term best interest to take them up on it.

 

[the last son]

I'm tipsy now. Self reflecting. You all are right about everything

 

[Paradoxium]

TLS, if you want to get laid more, travel out. I suggest the Philippines, they speak English there.

Bring your own condoms, because the local ones are too small. Pipeline with their dating sites. Happy hunting.

 

[Paradoxium]

Some sites for you to use.

[Anita18]

That would involve having money, which TLS doesn't have much of, considering he wants to be a stay at home dad and have the woman earn the money.

 

[Paradoxium]

Wait wtf, when did he become a dad!
