I'm bored.
If you're willing, share some stories of the most romantic, precious or kind thing you have done for someone.

 

[xaxs]

probably just telling that i loved her

i feel like i'm romantic, but looking back there weren't many "romantic acts" i did. they feel so over the top

cuddling with my ex gf, she didn't want me anymore though.

After she broke up with me, I eventually died from the resulting self-neglect (I had been severely malnourished and gotten very ill) and had to be resuscitated. I loved her so much that the heartbreak from losing her killed me, literally. To this day, I constantly get vivid dreams about her. How cruel the world must be, to give a person just a small taste of Heaven only to kick them down into Hell... In the end, after getting over all this, I wrote her an incredibly heartfelt letter expressing only the best wishes for her, and allowed myself to move on. It really came from my soul.

On a more positive note, I have also spent years improving myself and striving to be a better, less flawed person and partner so I do not ever repeat the mistakes I've made again, with good results according to people. Putting myself through unnecessary, avoidable tragedies is something I've resolved not to repeat.

getting him things hes wanted. even shipping some things to him as well, letters too.

oh a lot…

i didnt really do it, my heart did, but it made him both my first and last love. id rather be alone and die having done nothing than be with someone else and not have only him be my first and last everything.

i love him so much that i even love his loud snoring and i prefer to fall asleep listening to it. i swear it makes me sleep better somehow. only his.

i let myself be vulnerable enough to dedicate this to him:

i used to write notes of stuff he likes or things and stories about him and his life that he told me. i ended up deleting them because i knew id always remember in my head. i still remember years later.

im going to keep the gift he bought me until whenever. i still have the box it came in because im reminded that he held it in his hands.

but now i dont know where the line between romantic and desperation is.

Not romantic but, I built an advent calendar and filled it with things my best friend collected. I think you can buy them now- in a chest of drawers type format.

One of the most romantic things I've heard of other couples doing was- my Uncle bought a song on record that my Aunt loved and, played it over the phone to her. Fitting really- it was Stevie Wonder's: 'I just called to say I love you'.

 

[SASU-KE]

Not romantic, but I started something to remember my friends and family who passed away.

I grow an orchid for each of them.Interestingly, it started with someone who passed away right on this site. She said she liked white orchids, so I started growing some for her.Now I have a small collection.I've grown fond of them.Phaelopnosis, cattleya,vanda and Oncidium so far. I've learned a lot in a short time. I'm enjoying this hobby although I guess if you see me I don't look like a flower growing kind of guy.More of a gym bro type lol.

 

[boyafraid]

I wrote her love letters, gave her flowers, and also made some origami flowers (:

 

[Forveleth]

I used to do coloring pages for my partner. Like ones from coloring books. Nothing fancy, they were just cute and hand made so he appreciated it.

 

[foreverfalling]

I made romantic crafts. I thought something hand made with my time and effort would have more meaning and value. I think it was only romantic for me though. She probably preferred a necklace or ring.

 

[m1v]

I'm not sure if this romantic but I have a diary dedicated to him, a place where our conversations continue. I tell him about my days, or things I wish I told him before. Even though he's no longer here, writing in that diary helps me feel connected to him somehow.

What about you gunmetalblue? What's the sweetest thing you've done for someone.

 

[starboy2k]

lost my virginity to him in a McDonald's bathroom………….and I wasn't even dating him.

 

[gunmetalblue]

Happy everyone is sharing some stories.

I'd say romantically I learned a language for an ex, so they could communicate in their mother tongue.
Otherwise idk.

 

['Sraom]

bought her mcc and played through all the halo campaigns with her. also connected our pcs together through parsec and had her play red dead redemption 2 on my pc. it was like we were couch gaming together lol

 

[rotthjärta]

Ahhh most romantic probably had a book just for them. Like a small book where I would write about them whenever I thought about them, personal things about him, or imagining a future, I wanted to put pictures in them but i never got to. I wouldn't want to either they can go to hell.

So much for nothing lol.

 

[ColorlessTrees]

handwrote and cut into strips 100 days of love notes in a jar with fake roses and shipped it to my long distance at the time husband. im not a very romantic person but i like making things.

 

[Liebestod]

Can't relate I've never had any romantic experiences.

 

[Buh-bye!]

I'd save this to answer some other time.

On second thoughts, I feel it's stupid to boast about those things.
I don't do these things.

I have only had one serious love in my life, my ex partner. They would talk about how much they loved lego flowers as they never wilted, so I bought a big lego set of a boquet, I didn't have much money at the time but I wanted to make them happy, spent ages putting it together for them, only to find out they basically gave the gift away.. They got bored of me in the end and tried to move onto my friend, never loved since then.. the heartbreak was intense.

The lego set was actually pretty cool though, here's what it looked like.

 

[Celerity]

Not romantic but absurd and a lot of effort.

I was in love with my department supervisor. It was "cringe" as the kids say these days. I busted my fucking ass for that woman. I think she knew it too, near the end. She came to me nearly in tears one day about how far behind the team was. My dumbass worked 13 hours straight that shift. To make matters worse, I wasn't even trying to get brownie points (which were rarely offered anyway). I just wanted her to be happy and get her promotion. She was deathly afraid of the store manager, as she should have been.

If I were a dude, the whole store would have put together that I had the hots for her. Some probably did anyway. Good times.

 

[trying ungracefully]

I crocheted my boyfriend a blanket. He really wanted one but I didn't have the money for it so I used left over yarn from small projects. It turned out cute I think, he loves it a lot so that's all that matters. It fits my full size bed.

Sent several dozen roses to their work on Valentines Day
