For a hopeless romantic, life is love, and love is life. Theirs is a world of love at first sight, soul mates, destiny, chivalry, true love, happily-ever-after — and finding âThe One.â Theyâre not just looking for love; theyâre on a noble quest for it. Friends and family may dismiss their lovestruck notions as signs of a hopeless romantic: idealistic, unrealistic, and irrational, with perceptions skewed by rose-colored glasses.
A romantic is incompatible with a world of one-night stands, phone sex, booty calls, casual dating, and sexting. They want the courtship, hand-holding, walks in the rain, candlelit dinners, love letters, and roses. Does this mean that theyâre unsuitable for a relationship? Not at all. In fact, their unwavering pursuit of love and the conviction that theyâll find it makes them a very hopeful romantic.
Hereâs why a hopeless romantic makes the best partner:
These are the best reasons to pursue a relationship with a romatic person.
SHEâS EASY TO PLEASE
This doesnât mean that sheâs a pushover. It means that she will notice — and appreciate — the thoughtful little things that you do for her. When you hold a door for her when you see that sheâs wearing a new perfume, and even when you rinse your beard shavings down the drain, sheâll be touched that you are so courteous. Itâs easy to notice big things. Someone who observes the small, unique items that come from the heart is equally remarkable.
THE DATES ARE AMAZING
She has fantasized, possibly for years, about a date where she could finally express her romantic visions. Whether the two of you travel to a resort in Fiji or hit the local McDonaldâs, the experience with be phenomenal. After all, romance is what she lives for. You get to benefit from it.
SHE WILL LOVE YOU MORE DEEPLY THAN ANYONE HAS
When youâre in a relationship with a hopeless romantic, you will be loved more passionately than you ever have been loved. A romantic may have had their heart shattered countless times, but their faith in love is so unwavering that theyâll love you utterly, totally, and completely. Their idealism and willingness to commit to you in the face of all of that adversity is a rarity.
A HOPELESS ROMANTIC IS UNDERSTANDING
Remember that this is someone who has seen every rom-com since the day Meg Ryan was born. Displaying signs of a hopeless romantic, she knows every possible outcome of every possible romantic situation with every conceivable personality type.
Are you burned out after a stressful meeting at work? Sheâll be your champion and best friend. And, she’ll understand why you want to sit alone on the patio with a cup of coffee. Are you obsessing over the guy who gave you the finger in traffic? Sheâll know that you have to flee to the bedroom and distract yourself with mindless TV. Being a romantic means she wants whatâs best for you, and that includes giving you space.
SHEâS GREAT IN BED
She wants to be the best lover youâve ever had. She believes that lovemaking is the most fundamental aspect of romance, and since romance is her raison dâĂȘtre, sex with her is incredibly passionate. Her sexual fantasies are finally — finally! — being given waves of expression. Towering waves. Theyâll engulf you, too.
SHE EXPRESSES AFFECTION IN SMALL, TENDER WAYS
She profoundly believes in intoxicatingly dramatic displays of affection, and she also appreciates the power of a small tender gesture such as:
- Kissing you hello and goodbye on your cheek
- Holding your hand
- Cuddling you
- Gazing tenderly into your eyes
- NOT checking Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other social media sites while the two of you are on a date. The same goes for email and voice mail.
A ROMANTIC WILL HELP YOU BE A BETTER PERSON
You may not recognize your worth, but the romantic wholeheartedly does. Sheâll encourage you to recognize your significance and potential. Through the eyes of a romantic, these are heroic pursuits, and sheâll cheer you on as you chase them.
THE HOPELESS ROMANTIC IS STRONG
It takes a special kind of strength to be a romantic in a world that, largely, is not. She goes through much of life feeling like an outcast yet retaining the courage of her convictions. She is incredibly resilient, picking herself up time and time and time again after failed relationships and moving forward with unwavering optimism that sheâll find love. Romantics arenât afraid to be vulnerable, openly expressing their emotions. Do not mistake a hopeless romantic for a meek, mousy weakling. Theyâll bring rock-solid strength, fearlessness, and invincibility to your relationship.
A romantic sees true love in all aspects of life. The way an autumn leaf drifts to the ground or how the air smells right before a storm. The way an elderly couple gazes fondly into each otherâs eyes or how her lips feel when they ever-so-lightly brush yours.
Hopeless romantics can be counted on to make the best partners in a relationship. Contrary to their label, they are not hopeless at all. They simply believe in true love. They love it so much that youâll love it, too.
