Sometimes I do... only on the weekends during the morning when we have time to ourselves - which doesn't happen often - I feel like I'm competing for his attention. And if I tell him this, he starts to feel guilty, and I don't want that. He does A LOT for me and puts up with A LOT, but on the weekend mornings, I feel annoyed by him. Also, I've asked him on several occasions to do little romantic things - like write me stuff because he's a very good writing, and he hasn't... he says he has no time, but he does have time for his hobbies. Instead, I always give him cards and make him CDs and stuff.

What does a girl have to do to get a little romance?

Don't get me wrong... he makes me extremely happy - I've never been happier now that I'm with him. And he's very respectful and good to me and very kind. But I'm a girl and I want romance. Am I wrong for wanting this?

Basically what I'm asking is: Should I just accept him for him and forget wanting romance?

Oh man... I have the EXACT same problem. And I am a sap, I enjoy watching tear-jerking romance movies and reading tear-jerking books. When I find out how to change this, I'll let you know! lol. But for now, I've accepted that he won't change.
I'm sorry, I know this didn't help. =(
But, it's helped me to see the little things and turn them into something romantic. For example, a few months ago, I had a HORRIBLE stomach ache, so bad that I was crying. It was 12:30 a.m. and both of us were in bed, but he go out of bed, went to the gas station and got me a ginger ale anyways, even though he had almost fallen asleep. Because after all, it's a the little things that count. =)
PS, I get a lot of my romance from Nicholas Sparks books lol. Give them a try, you might enjoy them! I love them.

You shouldn't have to compete with anything for your man's attention. On the weekends he should stay in bed and be with you in every way until about noon. Then start his day. At night, he should spoil you some more. You are a knock out, and smart. I would spoil the hell out of you, if you were mine. Tell your boyfriend that he needs to get off his a55 and do some quality things with you on the weekends.

if you want romance, why dont you turn the tables... ask your bf what he would like, what would be romantic to him, and how he would like to be romanced. when he gives you his answer you can proceed to do so, and there isnt a chance under the stars that he will not romance you back in some form or another. what could it hurt to try? you could gain him into finally being romantic- in a way that will benefit you both,, just because you romanced him first. good luck.

he needs to step up and give you romance...otherwise this relationship will not last in the future, you will get sick of it!!! I had to do that with my boyfriend of 4 years as he would ignore me when the T.V. was on and then started to ignore his 19 month old son...he was soooo zoned in!!! I shut off the T.V. one day in a rage and said you need to stop this and after a little bit of arguring, we came to a compromise for me to talk to him when the commercials are on. It could be something as simple as that..communicate with him more and if you have to keep repeating cause sometimes men need to hear it a bunch of times before it registers.
