A woman explains "What is Romance"

You and every other guy on the planet want to know: What is Romance?

Your question of what is romance is probably rhetorical but if you want the definition of romance, the dictionary says "Ardent emotional attachment or involvement between people; love:" But I assume you are looking for a more profound definition which is much more difficult to explain.

Reading your question, I’m guessing that you have had women tell you that you are not romantic, or not romantic enough. You are in good company. Not being romantic enough is a concern that many men have and many women wish that their boyfriends and husbands could resolve.

Women crave emotional connections...

I think the key to being romantic is to work hard at maintaining an emotional connection or attachment. Women crave emotional connections and the more you can feed her craving the more satisfied she will be.

I believe there are two reasons for a woman’s desire for connection. The first is that women are hard wired to nurture. Their desire to nurture is part of being a mother and it’s natures way of ensuring that women take care of their children. The connection between a mother and child are fundamental to the emotional happiness of both. The second reason for women to seek connection is, arguably, that they have traditionally subservient to men and they seek the protection and security of close relationship. Even in our current society where women are increasingly powerful and equivalent to men in most ways, they still seek the attention and appreciation of their mates in their private lives.

So, back to your question of how can you be more romantic? It’s simple; always nurture a connection to your mate in everything you do. That means that when you are near her, let her know that you are involved. Talk to her and touch her often and not necessarily in a sexual way. When you watch TV or walk with her hold her hand. If you are in the car with her or if you are reading together, touch her from time to time. Just be involved.

You can also work on maintaining your romantic connection when you are apart by sending an occasional text message or an email. Call her out of the blue just to say hi.

The long and the short of being romantic is just being connected. Show her that you are there for her and that you are thinking of her. Romance is not about sex - it is about connection.

My two cents :)
