Want Your (Bad) Romance
Strangely enough, the most romantic moment of my life would probably be the time I was simply spending time, holding hands and walking around various exhibits at the Los Angeles County Faire back with one of my middle school boyfriends. It’s really the simple things that make me happy and satisfy any romance I may be craving. It’s as easy as just being there with me, enjoying the sights, holding my hand with some conversation, to satisfy my want for romance.
To be honest, I can’t remember ever receiving a big romantic gesture, but I appreciate the smaller, almost effortless ones as much. Presenting me with little things that let me know you were thinking of me is big – a favorite drink, snack, candy, a flower… whatever, it doesn’t matter, it makes me happy 
As the saying goes, it’s the thought that counts!
I’m sad to say that there hasn’t been too much romance since I’ve been with the husband. There’ve been a few things over the course of our relationship that he’s done that has surprised me but in general, I don’t expect a lot in the romance department lol. My mom has the same issue with my dad. Strangely enough, the husband is a LOT like my dad, personality wise so I guess if I can expect it from one, I should expect it from the other 
. It’s kind of sad, but not all guys have that gene, I suppose.
Of course, as any other girl would, I get jealous when I hear about the big (or little) gestures that are made in my friends’ relationships. I’d love to have more of it. BUT, I love my husband and I didn’t come into this relationship under the pretense that he’s a romantic. He has his moments, but overall, it’s not his style 
.
I’m sure there may be something he does that’ll top my romantic day with a middle school boyfriend – after all, we should have the rest of our lives together for it to happen! If not, well, I’ll just make sure to find myself a more romantic guy 
I agree, the little things are often more special than a guy going all out. Maybe you should drop a few hints to get your hubby more into the romance department?
