The Official Phatmass Hopeful Romantic Thread

[Tink]

[quote name='Sojourner' date='Nov 12 2005, 03:11 PM']THAT song brings back memories ... when I was in college (small Christian liberal arts school), every time a girl in our hall got engaged, she'd tell the hall director, and we'd have a "ring down." All 200+ women in the hall would gather in the lobby, and the lucky girl's wing would gather in the middle. We'd all sing "goin' to the chapel" and then we'd clap faster and faster as the girls in the middle passed around a lighted candle with the ring attached. When it came to the girl who got engaged, she'd blow out the candle, and the room would erupt in cheers. Then she'd tell the story of the engagement to all of us, and we'd ooo and awww and sometimes cry. There were some really creative and romantic proposals. :

I'd bet my...panpipe...that most PM men aren't.

I'm not into Romance that much, I don't know why, I've only had one boyfriend, but I wish that never existed. I enjoy staying single. Sometimes I could dream about meeting the perfect guy, but I am happy just being by myself right now and concentrating on what God wants me to do.

Falling in love is one of the scariest and best experiences of your life.
I highly recommend it.

How is it scary?

I mean, I know that it could be, but I think it's a girl thing...at least, I've never been scared by it. What thoughts pass through your head that make love scare you?

[Tink]

[color=#ff0066] yeah, I'd like to know, too. I think I probably have experienced some of the the fears that come with it, but likely not all...[/color]

I tried that once. it didn't work out too well. Oh well, ain't that a kick in the head...

[Tink]

[color=#ff0066]So what's the most romantic thing you've ever done/has ever been done for you? Just curious... I love cutesy stories. [/color]

[quote name='Tink' date='Nov 12 2005, 01:08 PM'][color=#ff0066]It's time for all you chick-flick-loving, sappy-song-listening, knight-in-shining-armor fanatics to come out of the woodwork! I know you're out there!  I know you sit at home watching The Princess Bride and Notting Hill, listening to Michael Buble at full blast; I know you grab the newest [i]Modern Bride[/i] and skim through the dresses cause it makes you feel warm and fuzzy... all you walk-in-the-park-at-Christmas-time-while-snow-falls-from-a-starry-sky lovers, you know who you are!

I actually prefer Hugh Grant's older films to Notting Hill and his newer, more Americanized films...

I love Romantic composers... Chopin, Debussy, Faure, Saint-Saens, you know...

and you can't really get any more romantic than the movie "Impromptu," with Hugh Grant playing Frederic Chopin :

sadly, none of the boyfriends I've had have been that romantic. One of them had an "abortion fund." Isn't that romantic?
