ROMANCE – When we think of romance, what do we conjure up in our mind, passion, respect, love, flowers, chocolate, holding hands, excitement. Or could it be ardent, emotional attachment, involvement between two people, or the romantic heroic, pageantry and romantic exploits. A wonderful feeling of excitement and mystery associated with love.

The definition of romance is a language which originated from Latin. the languages of romance are known as Spanish, French, Italian and Romanian . Romantic is defined as something, such as an action or behaviour, that is done to woo a signicant other  or to be a sign of love and affection. 

True romance  is doing something special or unexpected for someone you love, even though you don’t have to. Sadly I feel that each generation has lost a little of this good old fashioned romance, there is nothing nicer, for a door to be opened for you, a chair set aside for you in a restaurant, little things that not so long ago would never have gone a miss, and with certain generations still don’t, but in younger people you do see less and less, A lady should be treated as a lady, I do not find this the complete fault of the male population, maybe there is not so many ladies out there either ? Maybe I’m old fashioned but to respect the person you love should be a priority ……..And that the romance continue.

  1. Well, our posts matched so well today, maybe next year I’ll do a musical A-Z challenge for Jazz Appreciation Month – I am sure I can find a song for each letter. 😀

  2. I am lucky to have a man in my life who is romantic in subtle ways. I have learned to appreciate this way of showing his feelings or wooing me – when money is a problem more effort and imagination is required and that in itself is alluring and romantic .

  3. I was beginning to think that romance was a dead language. Some men don’t want the build up, they just want fulfillment. Thank you for posting this, and proving that gentlemen still exist.
