What's Romantic?
When considering the question "What's romantic?" I'm inclined to say any meal with my sweetheart that doesn't involve me cooking it. Beyond the obvious over-the-top gestures like honeymoon and anniversary cruises or honking diamonds, I am deeply moved by small, thoughtful gifts that let me know my man is just thinking about me. These include sweet, sexy emails and heartfelt handwritten notes received in the mail. There is just something about a busy man making the time to pick out a card, write something special inside, and actually mail it that melts me every time. Of course, what woman doesn't love to have her fellow pick up after himself (or her), do a load of laundry, or put on his barbeque apron without being asked?
That's romantic. That's the stuff upon which long-lasting relationships are based.
Of course, flowers are always nice too.

You know what's romantic? It's when your husband remembers that the second Saturday of the month is your RWA meeting day and that you always go early to meet with friends to plot, plan, eat and have fun. AND he doesn't make other plans because he knows it's your special day all to yourself.
THAT'S romantic!
Of course, I'm with you on the flowers. *g*

What's romantic? What a great topic! After 30 years of marriage I have to say that anything sweetly unexpected from my husband I consider romantic. From putting air in my tires to making a video about our life to simply cleaning up dinner dishes when he sees I'm tired, are all romantic. Not to put down flowers, I love getting those too!
