Its not about how much money is spent, its all about the effort and thought which makes it more romantic. Would I choose a home cooked meal personally prepared for me over gourmet five course fine dining meal, YES, I would! Hands down!
The other day, a friend came by before going to school, so early in the morning just to drop off pancakes sausages and hot cocoa (no, he didnt cook it himself) but the thought that he came by, just to drop off my breakfast surprise, is so romantic.
