Could it be.....LOVE?
Thursday, July 2, 2009
this guy called me and as soon as i answered the phone he started singing on his guitar. it was cute but i didn't have romantic feelings for him. lol.
Thank you for making me think about what the most romantic thing anyone had ever done for me one. Although the event was too personal to post on SP, it has reminded me, yet again, what a wonderful man I'm with.
@Wahoo4UVA Rare as hens teeth, my friend, but well worth the search. Much Love.
sometimes he just stands there...and looks deep into my eyes...kinda unnerving, but beautiful...
but we are not dating, we're just friends. but a girl can dream can't she?
I found this experience quite romantic, and it wasnt even my boyfriend!
This guy was over for a dinner party I gave and he stood for ages in front of my bookcase. He then asked me "Where are your novels?" I told him that I had them in another bookcase in another room. He said "Hmmmmm" and stayed there and kept reading. Finally I laughed and asked him "What the hell are you doing?" and he answered "I am studying you." and he smiled warmly.
Wow. That made my toes curl. Someone was that interested in knowing the things that are going on in my mind.
Nothing ever came of it though. He was the best friend of my Ex and I guess that played a roll. Still - those words have remained with me all these years. They were lovely.

From now on, you are "Acorn" to us all! Love it!
My wife and I sing "Tonight You Below To Me" (The Steve Martin and Bernadette Peters version) to our son. She calls me "Acorn." She reads the most minuscule expression on my face and comforts me even if I don't know I need it.
@TutherBrother You have! I want to find a person like this. I believe they are rare.
Coming back to this question again to read responses, I've recalled an occasion of a gesture.
We were riding around in the car one night, browsing music on his ipod and a song by one of my favorite bands came on. I told him to leave it there, I love them, then proceeded to burst out and sing along -- all off key. I think he giggled. I did sound terrible. A couple of days later, he was waiting in the car for me while I ran an errand. When I came back, he put on a song that I hadn't heard before, but I knew it was that same band because I recognized the lead singer's voice (it is unmistakable). "Mmm, I love his voice," I said. He went on to name the singer. I thought to myself, "I know it's Red Hot Chili Peppers. And so do you." I wondered if he played it on purpose, for me. I'm not sure. He is subtle and likes to quiz people. Intended or not, it made me smile and I found it romantic. Music is one of the best tools one can use to woo me.
They accepted the substitution of a less beautiful equation, on the grounds that it was more useful to them, without once complaining of the loss of beauty. You just gotta love somebody like that, haven't you?
Wrote me a song! Music is so..life changing, inspiratioinal, and above all things romantic. :)
It has been soooooooooooooooooo long. But it was someone that order me a vodka Johnny Appleseed without me asking for it. It was so romantic to have someone put my love of apple juice and vodka, and invent me a drink.
I don't drink anymore, but i cherish that memory.
I don't recall having something romantic done for me; however, I have done so for others. I look forward to reading about all of your experiences. And to having my own one day.
