But really here I am, just listening to the Proclaimers, great musicians by the way, if you're Scottish you should be proud. Anyway, no big deal, Just listening to some romantic 80's music, when all of a sudden I find an old folder on my computer. Last time I opened this folder must have been like 2012, my golden years. Damn. And then I find all these poems and songs on there, and I start reading through them all.
"Where have you gone?"
"The love of my life"
"I miss you"
I'm thinking damn, I don't remember writing these. And then it hit me. 10th grade. Amanda Smith. Damn, these memories come rushing back. Back when I was an innocent 15 year old, I had this "secret" admirer who used to send me these poems. I probably thought she was super creepy back then, but today I realise how sweet these poems really are. I felt so many emotions reading through them all, and I just had to make a thread like this.
What's the most romantic thing anyone has ever done for you? Or alternatively, what's the most romantic thing you've ever done for anyone?
A pair of eyes appear disguised,
I take flight and stay high in paradise,
With bad luck, snake eyes, a pair of dice.
I'm paralyzed, she speaks twice, a pair of lies,
It's parallel, apparent hell of parasites.
RedTie said: I did some silly, romantic things for her. What comes to mind right now was surprising her with short, sappy love letters. Just slip it into her bag and watch her reaction a little later when she found it.

It was valentines day when he hid a life size teddy bear at the trunk of his car. He gave it to me as a surprise and asked me if i could be his valentine. <3

I broke up, because my ex-partner was cheating on me. I knew for a long time ago, but...
I am too soft and stupid. Hoping for miracle happens but it was all a futile decision.

You understand that everyone is tired of these threads and you still post.
Anyway, I have never done anything romantic ever and whenever someone tries to do romantic things for me I do whatever I can to brush it off. Nobodys going to win my black charcoal heart.

Sorry to be a downer here and all but...
That really doesn't sound romantic at all. : I
Accepting your partner as he/she is without concerning bad and good sides that he/she has, is the most romantic way to love people in my opinion.
Some guy on Omegle (not on video) wanted to marry me. I was pretending to be someone from France since he was from the UK and they're often said to have pretty bad relationships. Instead he was gushing about France and I was like, "Huh".
He was trying everything to cyber with me though or something, but I was just like, "Lol, I don't get it," every time he said something randomly sexual. But actually, some of the things I actually couldn't follow.;; There were so many moments where I was thinking, "What the heck is he talking about? I am but a child" and actually I was but a child since I was like... sixteen. Wow. Time flies.
Anyway, my laptop at the time was awful and it only charged if it was turned off. I informed the guy of this as I only had about five minutes left.) He freaked out and said a lot of really sweet mushy things like, "No but you're one of the sweetest people I've met on here. Everyone else just wants to cyber and we have so much in common and you're the only person I'd ever want in my life. I'm so alone. Please find a way to stay on. I love you". And man, I don't know, some stranger begging you to stay on and keep them company and flat out saying it's because they're so alone kinda stabbed me right in the heart; because like, here's some dude on freakin' Omegle, I wouldn't doubt if he had no friends at all-- he had said so but I only really took it seriously as my battery quickly started to die. And there was something in me that wanted to find this person, hold them tight and tell them they actually aren't alone; I wanted to do that to everyone who was probably hanging around in a dark room, on Omegle, trying to cyber out of loneliness. But geez I was just some sixteen year old on Omegle saying I was French to some dude from the UK for shits and giggles. What could I do? But from then, I decided I'd make a larger effort to embrace my fellow human beings and allow love to spread in a more platonic way than they probably imagined. I don't want anyone to be that lonely anymore, and fixing that will be impossible, but attempting can at least leave a little dent.
Anyway, him opening his feelings to me in such a way seemed romantic enough. I don't think anyone has really ever done that with me; it came off as a genuine wish for companionship/romance/whatever one might call it.
I also try not to create fake identities ever since this (although I was roleplaying for the most part).

On a middle school field trip to the roller rink, some girl dragged me out to skate with her. Of course I didn't know how to roller skate, so we ended up falling together on that hard ass floor.
I'm not guy who's seen a lot of romantic events, you see.
My ex-girlfriend was pretty wealthy. Her dad was a cardiac surgeon and her mom was a pediatrician. Like these guys lived in a mansion. Either way, the most romantic thing that I have ever had happen to me was when she her dad bought me a thousand dollar Tissot as thanks for always helping them out without a complaint.
Never have I thought "aw how romantic" about anything a girl has done for me. There were times where things were really thoughtful but they never really struck me as romantic. The sad part is that another man buying me a watch was the most ecstatic I had ever been since the time I had sex for the first time. But I recently got promoted and got a huge pay raise and that blows both of those things out the water because being able to taste the fruit of your own labour is greater than any other sentimental bullshit.
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives.
When I was young and waiting for Shiratori no mama to come pick me up at school, that person would wait with me <3 Of course, back then I was way too stupid to notice what that probably meant...
