hi guys i think that romance is one of the most important things in a relationship. if you are with someone and romance doesnt happen much often, this can make feelings start to disappear. if you love someone is normal that you feel the need to show them your feelings. like do sweet things that show how much you care. for me thats super important if im in love with a guy. i like guys that are romantic^^ what about you? dont you feel the same?^^ share your views^^

Yes I like romance. It's a must have in my relationships. When the romance is gone usually so am I. I have suffered too much in my past to live without it. If he doesn't want romance with me, then he wants it with someone else in my book. I can't deal with that and I won't.

im happy that you also think this way^^ i think its really sad if you are in a relation where romance doesnt exist. its like how will you know that your lover loves you and care for you if he doesnt show it? that is impossible^^ anyway im happy that you dont let this happen. we shouldnt or else we will be unhappy bcs we will be always doubting if that person loves us really or not. care should be shared by the two people and not only one caring so much alone.

I know exactly what you mean. I have been in several relationships where I did all the caring. I have learned from that unbalanced behavior. I will not do it to myself anymore. In the end I am hurt with low self esteem and feeling alone. It takes two to tango is my motto now. I will give any new relationship I endeavor time to grow before I put all of me into it right away.

Time is the most precious thing in a relationship but ROMANCE is the most significant in every love affair. Romance is good, it tightens your relationship Without romance, it's so boring. It's like a bread without it's mayonnaise, it's like a meal without drinks. :) So yea, ROMANCE is all we need! :)

As important as when it is gone it preatty much becomes boring...I think it's dangerous to a longtime couple to become like brother and sister or mother and father, so the only thing that can separate this transformation is the romance. Plus, we need romance, life without it is so sad :D

romance is very nice. I think in any relationship there must be romance. Because without romance is not pleasant. more romance that leads us to make gestures that show love for your spouse. To make gifts and to be quite good and loving. Interesting discussion. I wish you always have romantic relationships.

It is sweet that someone will be romantic to you. As it means that he is interested in you and you feel loved. I like this feeling. But sometimes too romantic may not be so reliable. As this man has more experience in love so that he knows how to please a woman. Sometimes a honest and nice guy may not know how to be romantic. Sometimes you may even think he is silly. But he may be the right one. I love China

I think that romance is very important in any relationship, whether you've been together for a couple of weeks or several years. A lot of couples can get into a routine when they're married and have children, and this can sometimes mean that they end up living as more like housemates rather than lovers bringing up children. You should make the effort to bring a spark back into your relationship at all times so that the pair of you never get bored with each other's company like can happen in a lot of relationships.

Hi sweet love forever: Definetly. Romance is an important fact to make your love keep growing day after day. It's necessary without any doubt. I know that there are some periods where romance just disappear in a relationship. That's a warning sign and both parts should try to do their best to make romance come back. ALVARO

One must be romantic at every stage of life. One have romance in young age with her GF or BF. In the later he attitude must be romantic for his partner. Romance keep our relations fresh.

Hi Cat! Yes for me it is very important and can be anything small really. Romance does not have to be something outrageous and planned. In fact I like romance to be spontaneous and not scripted as being scripted means just exerting effort for the moment. I like it to be natural and this way I feel appreciated and vice verse for my efforts towards my own boyfriend too.

Yes romance is important in a relationship. But you have to remember, it's not something that will be like a love story. It wouldn't be every single minute of every single day. Romance comes in many different forms, from a soft caress to making love. Also, little things like opening a car door or saying I love you. It becomes a part of your life. You do not even know you're being romantic after awhile.

Yes my dear, it is important. It makes the relationship sweeter and a lot more fun. If there is no romance, things die down and it gets boring..banal.. while romance brings spark and excitement.

I think romance is important, but I do not think romance is one of the most important thing in a relationship. Perhaps I am a little pessimistic, but I do think that faith and loyalty is a little bit more important than romance, and proper wealth also counts. I know a girl, who is very good-looking and graduated from a music college with attractive personality. She met a guy a few years ago, this guy is a peddler with no good education (at least he cannot provide enough certificates to prove it), and they fell in love. Every person near the girl tried hard to persuade this girl out of this relationship, but she would not listen and married this guy. Some years later, one of her acquaitances met her in a street, and only after two or three words she bursted into crying and complaining her dealy mistake to marry this guy. But the fact is so, no one can do anything to change it, and she has a baby girl to take care of so that she is not willing to divorce.

For me yes and to care also to your partner in all aspect of your life so if your husband far apart because of the work like abroad the woman need to care to understand and take time to be to communicate it is the way they showed romance to it.

Romance is very important in a relationship. I believe that a woman always wants to feel important in a guy's life and guys must always show how they really care. Though my husband is not that romantic by nature, he tries to be one and I appreciate it. He shows it in very simple ways. If you really love someone even if you are not really romantic by nature , you tend to do things or unusual things because you want your love one to be happy and that's where romance in a relationship starts which will make the relationship a foundation of love and contentment to partners.

Hello, sweet! Yes, I definitely agree with you. In every relationship, romance is a vital part to keep the relationship smooth sailing. Without romance, I guess the relationship will be dull. And one way you could show how much you love a person and to show how much you care for him/her can be best shown in romance. Not counting all other hundred things to show your love and care for someone you love the most. :)

It's one of the most important things to me. I am a 1v1 kind of person and connecting with someone special not only comes naturally but it's essential for my happiness. I don't purposefully act romantic as I hate falling into that cliche, but my actions are often seen as romantic when in a relationship.
