Romance for the un-romantic.
By Emily Ratay — Written on Nov 03, 2016
Romance doesn't always come easy for people. Some men try to shrug off the fact that they aren't romantic by being silly or cheesy so that it sounds like they are being romantic ... up until they make a joke to lighten the mood.
Being able to expose yourself enough to find someone special and fall in love can be hard, but it isn't impossible. Sometimes, the best advice someone can give you is simply to be yourself.
That way, your significant other knows the type of person you are from the beginning.
Because you shouldn't have to trick yourself into being romantic if you really are just an un-romantic guy. Why try to be someone you're not? Surely that can't get you very far in life.
It can be difficult to accept that you are an un-romantic man, especially if you want to be for your significant other.
Try as you might, you just can't seem to find words to express your feelings without sounding incredibly fake or over the top. Learning to embrace your not-so-romantic personality can take time, but the best way to do it is by focusing on your other strengths.
Can you make her toes curl in bed? Maybe you can make AMAZING waffles for breakfast.
Remember that your partner fell in love with you for a reason ... And maybe that reason was because of your awesome cooking skills or it could be because you are not a romantic man, not in spite of it.
For all of those men who feel like they need some help finding the perfect, UN-romantic thing to say to their sweethearts — or for those women who don't know what to say to their guy without totally freaking him out — here are some love quotes that will make you look like a total rock star.
