I am a hopeless romantic. Who's with me!?
    #13481198 - 11/14/10 01:46 AM (13 years, 7 months ago)

Yes, it is true. I'm a fucking hopeless, fanciful, sentimental dreamer!

Here I am, yet again, at almost 4am about to start watching some random indie romance movie. Perhaps I should not be confessing this weakness of my character, but, alas, it is who I am :lol:

Come on, you fuckers! I know you're hiding out there, wallowing away in your wildly suppressed and idealistic emotions :awesomenod:

Not literally "hopeless"...it is just a demeaning connotation assigned by non-idealist types haha *cries inside*

I have this feeling like I"m going to be alone all my life.

I was hopelessly romantic, and generally am when I get in relationships, but lately I've found myself jaded, and wondering if romanticism is just a state of mind and doesn't really exist.

My thinking was extremely romantic when I was younger, now it's cynical and pessimistic.

I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

my newest love interest is intelligent, likes to take acid and smoke weed, attractive, not a whore, honest, and she is even a member of the shroomery now. never would have dreamed i would find a girlfriend i had so much in common with. its like we are best friends, but we also happen to do other things most best friends dont do (like have sex)

what more could a man ask for?

I am kind of the opposite; I actually enjoy a good romance, like Amelie, if it can suspend my disbelief in romantic love for a while.

I guess I actually dislike romance movies BECAUSE I'm a romantic. They make it seem so plausible that the hopelessly romantic will be rewarded with true love, whereas real life has more of a tendency to piss and shit in his/her face.

Not to be bitter, but :shrug:

I used to write songs for my former girlfriend and play them on my guitar outside her window.  I cry at the movies.  I'm a sucker for romantic movies and love songs.  I love weddings.  I stock up on scented candles and incense.  I like to pick flowers and display them proudly in a vase.

I suppose you could call me a hopeless romantic, but perhaps "pussy" would be more accurate.

That about sums it up. I don't really watch movies in general though. I like comedies, but action, horror, and the others always follow some dream of grandeur that has the one percent chance of playing out in real life.

Not much more than that. Seems like you found a good one. I'm still waiting but hopeful.

im certainly a romeo minded fool...



not in the way that i watch romance movies though :puke:



i'm just too much of a sweet talker, and though most of the time i like to mess around w/ girls with no attachments; everytime i meet a girl i actually feel that i've got a real connection with i just choke. i have no problem getting a girl in bed when that's all i want to do, but when i want the girl's heart i panic about making the wrong move and fucking it all up so i end up making friends with the girls i truly love and never really end up dating them or telling them much of how i actually feel.

atleast that's the situation i'm in right now, but i'm not trippin cause i'm still young and there's a lot of fine ass females out there that i wanna spend time with before finding that one i spend the rest of my time with.

It's good to know there are still some romantic guys out there though. 

Am I a romantic?  I think so.  But I keep it inside.  Being a romantic sort of means you make yourself vulnerable and I'm tired of allowing myself to get hurt.

I think that's what the guys do too. At least I do. Girls doubt there are romantic guys because so many of them keep it in out of fear of making themselves vulnerable and getting hurt.

and your luck

unless you worked hard to find that, but ive heard the phrase "once you stop looking, she'll find you"

well i heard that a year ago so you can probably have a good theory of what my perception of love and women are...

I would say I do. They're not always over the top romantic, but they are kind gestures. I did give him a massage the other night, complete with oils and candles. Who knows, maybe he'll recriprocate. I can dream :tongue2:

I used to be a hopeless romantic-- no wait, I meant cynical asshole. Well, I still like a good romance picture every now and then. I just saw a really good one too. It was called Love Exposure.

Ahh ... leave it to the Japanese to capture that rapturous feeling of being young and in love.

i haven't had much luck with love/relationships, and i've had my heart broken a lot.  but, i am like a dumb puppy who keeps coming back for more.  i could never be jaded, and i will never stop believing that the stars will align and i'll meet the right one at the right time.

i love love and i love being in love.  i am happy with myself though and i'd rather be alone than with someone who's just alright.  i want extraordinary.

A "Hopeless Romantic" is one who in the face of unrequited love keeps an overall positive outlook on love and life. While others tend to become jaded in the face of relationships gone bad or in times when one's heart begins to beat for another and those feelings aren't reciprocated, Hopeless Romatics always see the brighter side of things knowing someone, somewhere out there awaits them whether in this life of the next.

I used to be romantic... I moved across the ocean to be with the "love of my life" who turned out to be a self-loathing douche bag. These days I'm just realistic.

I suppose my answer would be no, I'm not a romantic at this point in my life.

I feel bad because I have to constantly reiterate to the guy I'm dating that I'm not ready for the lovey dovey shit. I'm not trying to be insensitive, but I've made it clear where I stand. :shrug:

i love to act romantic towards women i think the act of romance is awesome and feels great...

but I'm pretty jaded on finding "the one"

i feel this. im receptive to the notion of finding a new lover, but as my life progresses i find it harder and harder to settle and am no longer feel so desperate in finding romance. i refuse to be with someone unless they challenge me mentally, inspire me, make me strive to be a better person...etc...someone that I can learn from...

I'm one sappy bastard personally but I don't go for romance movies. :argh:


I am kind of the opposite; I actually enjoy a good romance, like Amelie, if it can suspend my disbelief in romantic love for a while.




Amelie is a fucking brilliant movie, regardless if you are into romance films or not.

Do like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? Or Before Sunrise/Sunset (yes, Ethan Hawk's character is a self-indulgent prick at points...but I love them)?

counter productive and masochistic?  can you elaborate upon that because it sounds like you dont know me at all

I like the way she puts it, ive learned to stop being idealistic and be realistic.
no girl in my town wants a guy who will bend over backwards for them, you gotta be the alpha asshole (or artist), at least thats what i see most the time.

and i dont mean asshole by literal asshole, but you gotta put on that persona, and thats just not me.


ps. dont give me that crap about being myself, heard that a million times. and im quite happy by myself more recently

Yes, it is true. I'm a fucking hopeless, fanciful, sentimental dreamer!

Here I am, yet again, at almost 4am about to start watching some random indie romance movie. Perhaps I should not be confessing this weakness of my character, but, alas, it is who I am :lol:

Come on, you fuckers! I know you're hiding out there, wallowing away in your wildly suppressed and idealistic emotions :awesomenod:




I don't think I'm all that bad, but I like to dream. :tongue:
