Discussion Tell me the most romantic thing you have done for someone.

[gunmetalblue]

I'm bored.
If you're willing, share some stories of the most romantic, precious or kind thing you have done for someone.

 

[xaxs]

probably just telling that i loved her

i feel like i'm romantic, but looking back there weren't many "romantic acts" i did. they feel so over the top

cuddling with my ex gf, she didn't want me anymore though.

After she broke up with me, I eventually died from the resulting self-neglect (I had been severely malnourished and gotten very ill) and had to be resuscitated. I loved her so much that the heartbreak from losing her killed me, literally. To this day, I constantly get vivid dreams about her. How cruel the world must be, to give a person just a small taste of Heaven only to kick them down into Hell... In the end, after getting over all this, I wrote her an incredibly heartfelt letter expressing only the best wishes for her, and allowed myself to move on. It really came from my soul.

On a more positive note, I have also spent years improving myself and striving to be a better, less flawed person and partner so I do not ever repeat the mistakes I've made again, with good results according to people. Putting myself through unnecessary, avoidable tragedies is something I've resolved not to repeat.

oh a lot…

i didnt really do it, my heart did, but it made him both my first and last love. id rather be alone and die having done nothing than be with someone else and not have only him be my first and last everything.

i love him so much that i even love his loud snoring and i prefer to fall asleep listening to it. i swear it makes me sleep better somehow. only his.

i let myself be vulnerable enough to dedicate this to him:

i used to write notes of stuff he likes or things and stories about him and his life that he told me. i ended up deleting them because i knew id always remember in my head. i still remember years later.

im going to keep the gift he bought me until whenever. i still have the box it came in because im reminded that he held it in his hands.

but now i dont know where the line between romantic and desperation is.

Not romantic but, I built an advent calendar and filled it with things my best friend collected. I think you can buy them now- in a chest of drawers type format.

One of the most romantic things I've heard of other couples doing was- my Uncle bought a song on record that my Aunt loved and, played it over the phone to her. Fitting really- it was Stevie Wonder's: 'I just called to say I love you'.

 

[SASU-KE]

Not romantic, but I started something to remember my friends and family who passed away.

I grow an orchid for each of them.Interestingly, it started with someone who passed away right on this site. She said she liked white orchids, so I started growing some for her.Now I have a small collection.I've grown fond of them.Phaelopnosis, cattleya,vanda and Oncidium so far. I've learned a lot in a short time. I'm enjoying this hobby although I guess if you see me I don't look like a flower growing kind of guy.More of a gym bro type lol.

 

[boyafraid]

I wrote her love letters, gave her flowers, and also made some origami flowers (:

 

[Forveleth]

I used to do coloring pages for my partner. Like ones from coloring books. Nothing fancy, they were just cute and hand made so he appreciated it.

 

[foreverfalling]

I made romantic crafts. I thought something hand made with my time and effort would have more meaning and value. I think it was only romantic for me though. She probably preferred a necklace or ring.

I'm not sure if this romantic but I have a diary dedicated to him, a place where our conversations continue. I tell him about my days, or things I wish I told him before. Even though he's no longer here, writing in that diary helps me feel connected to him somehow.

What about you gunmetalblue? What's the sweetest thing you've done for someone.

 

[starboy2k]

lost my virginity to him in a McDonald's bathroom………….and I wasn't even dating him.

 

[gunmetalblue]

Happy everyone is sharing some stories.

I'd say romantically I learned a language for an ex, so they could communicate in their mother tongue.
Otherwise idk.
