"All I really, really want our love to do is to bring out the best in me and in you too." Joni Mitchell
Romance is a personal feeling. It cannot be created. If the feeling is created, then it is not romance, but a well-planned act. When it is from the head but not from the heart, it is not romance.
Spending a night with the loved one... driving during midnight with no particular destination... beautiful night scenes... sharing history... listening to jazz... nothing is planned... everything just comes so natural. This is romance.
Doing things randomly without any planning is romance. Everything just goes with the heart. There is no right or wrong with romance, but whether the feeling is here or not.
However, romance doesn't last long, so those enchanting moments should be remembered by heart. They'll stay there forever. Pictures only hold images, but not the feeling at the moment. Images will be worn out, but memories that held deep within heart remain.
When the usual something is done unusually, it is romance.
Nowadays, almost everyone has a mobile phone. Who really needs a payphone? Isn't it more convenient to make a call with the mobile phone? The numbers are all there in the phone. Just search the name, press dial, and the person will be on the phone after several rings. Phone numbers? What are they for? Do people still bother to remember phone numbers?
However, calling someone with a payphone is not as easy as one might think.
"What is the number of that person? What's the number again please?"
If it's not there in the heart, then it's not there in the head.
Giving without asking anything in return is romance, because... that's love.

Can feel your strong "romance experience" now! remember to bring enough coins to call!
Love is giving without regret, and never ask for return. But what true love is? When it will be here and when it will be gone?
Maybe it was better left unsaid
But this is pure and simple,and you must realize .
That it's something from my heart and not my head.
But this feeling doesn't come along every day
And you shouldn't blow the chance when you've got the chance to say:
"I love you, I honestly love you"

Romance from heart, words also from heart.
There is no right or wrong for the wordings, but whether the words are from the deepest of writer's heart or not.

Romance can be everything. It does not matter whether it is physical or not. It does not matter what is it. It is all about feeling. If you get it, then romance is there.

Romance is something that you can't see and hear but it can make you breathe and cheer.
Although you can't see it
you can really feel it when you find your Mr. Right =)

What impress me is the idea of "doing something unusually". One scene in "Before sunset" shows that when the two characters dancing in the room, letting the time goes by. It is the most romantic thing that I've ever seen.

Romance is simple, but also difficult.

I agree with you, romance is coming so nature and unexpected. When the lovers really love each other. Even taking bus together, you will feel your heart jumping very fast and the time seems like stop.

romance is NOVA's love towards their society
Suraj Samtani - bm_ssxad
Romance - The supposedly unconditional feeling experienced towards another is not devoid of all conditions. Although it may be said, that romance is giving without expecting, such charity-like and selfless love is hard to find - except of course, in the Biblical times of Jesus.
Knowing that the other doesn't have the same feelings as you, and still attempting for romance is just too hard.
Yes, romance is an ineffable feeling. But its beauty lies in the mutual presence of the two parties concerned.
With society taking such a major role in today's world, it is hard to love with out fear. Essentially, romance is simply experienced between two parties - but today's world has conditioned this condition between a male and female.
If society continues on its same track, I really see no future of true romance in our world of today. At most, it may exist in one's conception, but not one would dare to manifest this beauty into reality.
This is a real pity, it should only matter to those concerned. However, human's innate desire to inquest into every existence's rationale has allowed us to intrude into a relationship rather private, personal and uniquely individual feeling.
I love MKSS

Romance is the period with JOY.

I think I don't know wt is Romance if Romance is the thing that describe in the article. But it seems that Romance is too obstruct and you just cannot describe it on just the article. It's better to learn by myself and my love. HAHAHA!
Hugo Liu, ke_lhh
I agree with you.
Hey Daryl,
Nice and inspiring post! In today's rushed and fast-paced world, it's good to take time and think about those things that should be natural but are oftentimes forgotten such as love.

談浪漫
如果說愛情是花朵,那麼浪漫便是她的香氣。
浪漫--點綴著愛情。
浪漫是簡單的。
偶然間手指尖的觸碰,是浪漫。
雨夜寂寞難眠,電話筒那邊傳來情人問候的聲音,這是浪漫。
浪漫如二人合奏,講求共鳴。
不知道你有沒有聽過
"最遙遠的距離不是天涯海角的分離,而是我站在你面前,而你眼中並沒有我。"
我認為這句說話便是浪漫的真諦。
浪漫是心靈的交流,是靈魂的互動。
