Hi everyone. I did not want to derail seoulsearch's thread about unrealistic fantasies so I created this thread. I just want to know what are the things that men and women think as romantic in the real world. Here are some examples and it's surprising to know how different men and women are when it comes to romance.
Top seven things women think are romantic
-love notes
-music mixes
-flowers
-surprise picnics
-cuddling
-dancing under the stars
-shopping together
Top seven things men think are romantic
-seats on the 50-yard line
-a 1966 Mustang
-an Xbox 360
-powertools with a bow or ribbon
-sex (bow or ribbon optiona)
-baked goods
-silence
I think this list is biased. A mustang? Seriously? I really thought men are easy to please. I did'nt think they are high maintenance.
I can absolutely say that I honestly think the top list is more appealing.
Not that I would want flowers or anything, theyre doomed to die and feel pointless to me. Though cool decorations are appreciated sometimes : p
But uhhh things that I think about when fantasising about such things....
Im way into holding hands, like more than people would imagine. I very much would want to be with a girl that I could hold hands with, look into her eyes and smile, without her judging me for not being "manly" or any of that nonsense : p
I also love to cuddle, in fact after a hard day of working that could be a nice way to relax maybe.
And I love saying nice things to each other while doing that, too. Talking about how much we love each other and how special we both are to each other and all that.
And actually going on picnics together is kinda a dream of mine. I love being outdoors, in pretty scenic areas. And I like food and eating food for some weird reason : p So those things together are definitely a dream of mine.
Also, Id love to go exploring together. Like, check out really cool places together, go to small concerts and museums together. Id really like to do those kinda things.
Sharing our favorite music together and talking about what we like about each others favorite songs, thats a big fantasy of mine, I often imagine doing that when I listen to my favorite music : p Only fear with that is that she might like music that I just cant enjoy, like poppy stuff with an over the top singer, Id really have to stretch my mind to find a way to appreciate that : p
Oh, and it would be amazing if she had
some kinda musical ability, cuz I love playing music and Id very much like to write music together, and maybe even play open mics together . It would be awesome if she could play guitar or piano or something where we could both come up with simple melodies to work off of together, and if she werent afraid to sing a bit, so that we could both sing together. Would be really really awesome : p
I wouldnt expect her to be amazing, I mean I dont even consider myself to be. Would just be cool to be with someone willing to do that together : p
I dont like dancing, and Im not a "tough guy" or any of that, so there are a few things that I wouldnt be able to do, and would want to be with someone that I felt comfortable with obviously : p But it would definitely be cool to find someone who feels the same way I do about things and makes me feel happy to be around her over making me feel like I need to work really hard to make her happy all the time : p
In the end, Id want someone who really feels like my super most special best friend, who always chooses to be with me over others and enjoys my company, and Id want to be the same thing for her. I mean yeah Id work to provide for her and all those other responsibilities I have, but Im talking about my fantasies, so these are just my hopes and dreams : p
