I'm a romantic.
I love chocolates, warm wishes, hugs... I love love. I adore my partner, he is amazing and I really love him. But he doesn't do romance the same way that I do. He's more of a companionship type, as opposed to swooning. He does express his affection. But it's usually subtle; he isn't big on focusing on emotions. I don't mind that, but sometimes I find it hard to understand. For example, today I sent him a Valentine's Day message, and he hasn't replied. It's certainly not the end of the world, but as a lover of romance, and of the one man, I feel like maybe I'll have to ignore my love of romance (or read more romance novels) for as long as I'm in the relationship (I'm hoping for the long haul). I was just wondering if anyone else had been in a relationship with someone who had the complete opposite approach to romance to themselves, and whether you were able to find a balance between the two approaches? __________________ “One for the Prophet, the wide open eye… Two for his brunt and the sign of the fist… Three for Uyane, the unclad sword… Four for Mykrm, the hammer of his law… Five for Oyan of the ash-stained leaf… Six for Thaliszar and the healing hand…” (R.
