Is your husband the romantic type? If he isn't then do you wish he was? If he'd not do you want to change him? Mine isn't. I wish he was but I don't want to change him because I feel in love with him. If he is does it get on your nerves and do you want him to stop? Give me details. I want only married women to answer this. Thanks.

It depends on your idea of what is romantic.
My husband is romantic in his own way and I wouldn't change anything about it.
He watches our daughter so I can work a night job, he cleans the house, does dishes and laundry when asked. He empties the garbage cans without being asked. He cleans the snow off my Jeep and gets it warm for me so I can leave for work. He stays in bed, snuggling with me when I come home in the morning (when he doesn't have to get off to work) and rubs my feet and back when they are tired to help me relax so I can go to sleep.
He leaves me love notes on my pillow when he leaves for work before I get back from my job. He sends me e-mail love cards at least once a week and he brings me a dozen roses once a month.
It all depends on what you think is romantic.

I'm a widow but mine was. He was the type who would buy flowers for no reason, buy me nighties that he wanted to see me in and take me on romantic weekend trips on the spur of the moment.
No, I didn't want to change him except for one thing. He wouldn't let me watch TV. The man would just be ALL over me all the time. If I was watching a movie, he couldn't wait the 2 hours to get in my pants, as if the fact that I was sitting still was an invitation.LOL.
Sigh.
Wish he was here to bother me right now.

My husband is very affectionate. We snuggle on the sofa at night and he gives me back rubs, fixes my coffee in the mornings, and things like that.
I do complain a lot because I want him to plan a weekend away from the children, and he never does. I would like to have an entire weekend with just him.
I wouldn't change him, but I do wish he would do that once in a while. . . . . reading over my own answer, I guess I have it pretty good as it is!

One person's idea of romance is different from another......my man was very concerned today that I had a snow brush in my car when I arrived back into the airport today. The idea that he worried about something concerning my safety and comfort spoke volumes to me.....he showed how much he loved me by worrying. Might not be romantic to others, but it mean the world to me.....and a whole lot more than receiving a bouquet of flowers.

My husbands definition of romance is different from mine. I want flowers,he fixes my car. I'd like a romantic evening out,he buys m a dvd he thinks I'll like. I don't want to change him,but I finally(after 4 years) told him that I need to be treated like a princess every once in a while. He is slowly but surely making improvements.He got me a nice Murano glass vase,but no flowers,hey it's a start.Try talking to your spouse and see what happens.

The thing I miss about my husband romancing me is feeling special. When we were courting three years ago, he made me aware almost daily that I was special and different and important to his life. I don't need the flowers, cards and constant phone calls anymore, but a nice e-mail, kind words and the occasional night out would be greatly appreciated. I am sure he would respond similarly, so perhaps in order to obtain those precious things I will have to make the first move.

I think that my definition of romance has changed over the years. It is NOT flowers or candy. Romance to me is my husband coming home and telling me that he has the kids for a couple of hours and for me to spend some time alone.
Cleaning the house to surprise me when I am not here.
My husband is great! wonderful father, friend, provider.
My definition has changed, but my husband has not. Still the wonderul man that I married 11 years ago.

Mine is, he would do something special almost each day. Since I became pregnant he has helped me around the house and even before pregnancy he usually had something fun planned, like an evening out or just time together.

He's the perfect balance actually. He's romantic when I want him to be romantic with me. If I'm just doing my wifely duty then he gets right down to business so I can get to sleep.
