This question is directed at the ladies first. What does romance mean to you? What is the most romantic thing a guy has ever done for you? If no one has done anything romantic for you, help the fellas out there and tell us what women are looking for.

Romance to me is the little things. When guys open doors for me, give me a massage after a long day of work or brush my hair....those are the romantic things to me. I can't think of one standout thing that has ever happened to me but I believe it's not the one big gesture or the one most romantic thing, it's all the little things that add up and prove to me that the guy truly cares for me.
I don't know that I can speak for all ladies, everyone likes their own thing but if a man wants to impress me all he needs to do is keep it simple. Cook me dinner or go on a walk with me on the canal and hold my hand. Flowers are always good but not on a holiday... just because you were thinking about me. And it doesn't have to be a dozen roses, it can be cheap carnations - it's the thought that counts. Small, considerate things really do add up guys!!
To appreciate me. To be appreciated whether it's being told thank you for doing something, or noticing something that was done is such a nice feeling! Also listening to what I say. If I mentioned something that I loved/liked one day and then two months later he bought me something small from that conversation that would be amazing. Or was somewhere and saw something that reminded me of him and brought me home something.
Don't get me wrong, it's not all about materialistic things, but it's so simple. Just think of me and tell me that I mean something to you.
There are so many things men can do to be romantic. The two Anonymous responses already speak on the things I was going to mention. But just to throw my 2 cent in... I would say, showing up out of the blue to visit me or sending me flowers just because. But for me it's the simple things. A compliment when I get my hair done or seeing the change in me from working out and speaking on it.
One romantic encounter that stands out for me is when my ex-boyfriend surprised me early for Valentine's Day. He told me he had to work and wouldn't be able to see me. I was sad but understood. As I turned to walk into my aparment complex, there were a dozen red roses and a teddy bear sitting on my door step and he came around the stairs and surprised me. Needless to say....well...you know. LOL! I no longer have the boyfriend but I do still have the bear. Not for sentimental reasons but just because I liked the bear.
But my advise is to keep it simple guys/girls. It's the little things that matter most.
Loyal T let me add that's it's a good thing you don't have that boyfriend anymore bc he sounds like a stalker. He was just waiting to see if you had plans with your other "friend" then he was going to take you both out OJ style. The flowers and bear were a cover up!! ha
You're an asshole! LOL! He was not stalking me. At that time I had no "other friend" sir. I loved him and was with only him.
Yeah bc you didn't have any friends and the stalker seemed like a good guy! haha
You need to watch the movie Ted Bundy slim!
i agree with all that's been mentioned...it really is the simple things. one thing that sticks out to me is one night i came home from work and dinner was cooked for me (which happens often) but this particular night, after we filled our plates we went to sit down but he sat on the floor and looked at me like crazy because i sat on the couch. it was the sweetest thing when he said "sit down here with me, let's make it a picnic!"
I don't like you Uncle Charlie! LOL! But I see where you're coming from!
You know I got your back LoyalT
