Oh well, I'm always a romantic girl at heart. I gush over flowers and chocolates. Listen to mushy loves songs. That's why the book Fifty Shades of Grey was so popular to women not because or its eroticism, but because of the romantic way Christian Grey has charmed Anastasia. The only romantic thing that my past boyfriends did for me was to give me flowers and gave me love letters. But this is the new generation and let's face it, nobody wants to write letters anymore. So what was the most romantic thing that someone did for you? Share your experiences.

Wow, you too. I just finished reading the "Fifty Shades" series last week. Great book series. I loved this book series because it just gives me so many ideas on how to spice up my relationship with my boyfriend. I have been having dreams about neck ties. A few of the most romantic things that my boyfriend has ever done for me: the first was tickets to a Ontario Reigns Game. I love hockey, so it was very romantic. The next was buying me "The Hunger Games" series because my boyfriend knows how much I love to read, and then the other was taking me out to a nice restaurant for my birthday. I don't do flowers because I am allergic to most of them, and he's not much of a writer, but we did exchange love letter online.

I have a very busy life and rarely have time off. My sweety and i don't get to spend much time together because we are both so busy. So he paid for me to go on vacation with my four kids to visit my family out of state cause he felt the kids and i needed to get away. Then he surprised me and drove 8 and a half hours overnight to spend the week with me there. Was the most wonderful thing in the world to see him pull in the driveway at 5:30 in the morning. And we had the most wonderful week imaginable spending time with the kids and together doing whatever we wanted for 5 days.

My partner knows I love chocolates and he never forgets to buy some for me. Since he is not a guy who will write letters, I guess I have to be contented with calls and texts during the day. He can be really sweet with his texts reminding me to eat my lunch or dinner. He never forgets to text "I love you" at least once or twice a day. I just hope he does not change.

I love that kind of stability. Even though he's busy he never forgets to say "I love you". Good for you!

The most surprise thing he did for me was he gave me surprise call when I was at office. We are in long distance relationship, we have problem with time, which my day is his night. I was at office doing my monthly report and then suddenly my mobile rang, it was him calling me,,I was speechless because he supposed to be in bed already. I was worried something happen with him cos he just gt sick. He called me just to say "I LOVE YOU".. just like Stevie Wonder's song " I just call,, to say,, I love you" :X Im in love hehe

I agree that long distance relationships put quite a pressure on love. It's really good that he made an effort to call you.

I'm still living with my parents. Not a long time ago, with my parents I got into a really heated debate, and I packed my belongings and left home (I couldn't take the cvell phone and the laptop)... my parents called him, because they knew I was going to him, so he left work to find me. It was so sweet of him that he was so worrying and worries about me.

I think he really cares for you. It's difficult to leave the workplace sometimes so he must have to pull some strings to get out and look for you.

my hubby sent me a large bouquet of pink roses for Valentines' Day this year. this was special because we don't have a lot of extra cash for stuff like that.

my husband knows that i love to be surprise, and aside from giving me chocolates, flowers, breakfast in bed, and asking me for a date, surprise short trips, i think the sweetest thing he ever done was when he surprised me with flowers at the time i least expect it. just when i came back for work after my three months maternity leave, while he was still at work overseas, he send flowers for me. i was surprised because there was no special occasion, i ask him what are those flowers for, he said it's his way of thanking me for taking care of our new born and for welcoming me back for work. i was touched and i always thank him for that experience.

My partner isn't the most romantic person, and I have to say that there are very few occasions that he has actually been romantic towards me in that way. The only time that he has ever brought me flowers was when he had done something wrong, and even then they would be cheap ones from the shop around the corner. He asks me what I would like for my birthday, and will never get me anything that I would be surprised by. I do love him, but I will admit that he leaves a lot to be desired on the romance scale.

My boyfriend is also the same.. He even forgot my birthday!! haha although I still love him. Sometimes he says or does something really unexpected. Guys aren't the romantic type I think.

This past summer my boyfriend wrote me letters while he was away at army basic training and couldn't talk to me. He always does cute little things for me or says sweet things to me. A few years ago before I went away to school he stopped by my house as I was leaving and he gave me a gift. The gift was a little jewelry box and a bracelet with a heart charm that said our names. The jewelry box was also engraved with our names as well as "ours is a neverending love story". I thought it was so sweet, especially since he knew one of my favorite songs is love story by taylor swift. That's just one of the many times he's done something nice like that for me. He's always super sweet and that's what I love about him.

It is so romantic for me when my husband wakes me up with breakfast, flowers on table and a note of love for me.
