How do we feel about romance? I asked a component of women on this
subject and here are the results:
1. What is your favorite romantic movie?
- Pretty Woman
- Love Jones
- The Notebook
2 Do you believe in love at first sight?
I found this survey shocking because I do believe that you can
stumble upon the man that you are going to spend the rest of your
life with. I met my husband that way on a train in Chicago; and
our eyes met, and the rest is history as they say.
3. Do you want a romantic man in your life?
I do, of course and most women do, but other women stated that
as long as the men had some money and they didn’t have to
work again, then money was the key to happiness. A romantic man
could be poor, and who wants or needs a poor man.
4. What are your favorite romantic places?
- The beach-overlooking the serenity of the water.
- A romantic restaurant with candlelight, soft music and good
conversation.
- The bedroom with plenty of rose petals.
5. Who is your favorite romantic actor?
- Denzel Washington – wins hands down.
- Terrance Howard – his eyes are romantic.
- Shemar Moore – gorgeous in every way.

- Diamonds.

- 25% - Age doesn’t matter. It depends on the individual.
9. What is your favorite romantic city?
- Paris, France
- Las Vegas, Nevada
- Jamaica

10. What is your favorite romantic moment?

his love for me.

- Surprises of the romantic kind
11. Would you get married for love only?
Of course most women want to marry for love so the marriage can
last until eternity. There are women marrying for all kinds of reasons,
but love is the conqueror of a happy marriage.
12. If a man asked you to marry him for one million dollars.
Would you do it, knowing there was no love between the two?
This is the state of marriages, and why divorce is the controlling
factor. Money is truly the root of all evil.

20. Would you hold out for romance?
21. If you were stranded on a desert island and you had
the chance to cheat with a romantic man? Would you do it?
22. Would you date on the internet?
23. Would you contemplate a long distance relationship
for love?
24. Would you give your life/self for your romantic man?
In a world of conflicts, chaos, and crimes all over the place,
romance gives you the chance to escape from the stresses of life.
You get to be with another human being, and explore issues and life
together. Although some of us are romantic at heart, including myself,
and believe in the evolution of romance; there are others with no
myth about it.
I believe romance is here to stay, and our mate is right around
that corner if we believe. It might not be a happily ever after
ending all the time because women are women, and men are men, but
I think out of 100% - we might have romance 85% of the time. This
is only 15% of a reality-check, of course. We all are destined for
romance, and remember our mates are still right around that corner.
I believe!
