R is for Romance

I have to roll my eyes when girls talk about their overblown proposals and the fancy dinners out and the 'by-the-cosmopolitan-book' romantic gestures.  You know that's just the peacock feathers, right?  real romance is picking up an extra pack of gum so your car has one too or walking by and simply pulling her ponytail out of her shirt and your hand brushes the back of her neck.  Or sitting and letting her watch a 'stupid' TV show and occasionally asking questions just to make her believe you are interested, but of course you're not really (yeah, right).  Keep your damn roses, gals and get a real life!
