If there is no investment of time, and no value placed on the little things, then how can romance or any other emotion, be expected to manifest itself. Whatever the case may be, we all know that romance is not an intricate part of relationships today as it used to be. That a person was thought of so highly, that time was taken to show it through little showers of affection. But nothing can be seen, felt,or touched if you don't know how. Romance has not, will not, and can not , be easily categorized, kept carelessly cataloged, then placed on the reserve shelf in a library of bittersweet memories.
Fellas just say no quiero.
Or the ladies won't go. Romance should not feel like your just going through the motions. Its knowing the other person on the phone is smiling because of you. It's the poem from the heart that makes the mind tingle with excitement as hot words melt deep down inside. Its a gentle massage when he's tired, scented candles as you draw her bath, its remembering her favorite beverage and most of all, taking the time to find out what he or she likes or dislikes then, caring enough to cater to those desires.
