romance rape

Appreciation of a romantic moment shared with another person to whom one is attracted, without their reciprocation or consent. Differs from fantasy in that it actually occurs, but typically to the knowledge of only the romance rapist. May occur between people of either gender, and particularly common between those of opposite sexual orientation.

v. Jen never realized that Steve wanted to be more than just friends, even after he had her over for a candlelit dinner and gazed into her eyes the whole evening. He didn't care; he just wanted to romance rape her.

n. When Dan found out one of his closest friends was gay, he suddenly thought back to every time they lay alone under the stars during a camping trip and couldn't help but wonder whether he'd been a victim of romance rape.

Romance

True romance is doing something special or unexpected for someone you love, even though you don't have to. Romance isn't a greeting card, it isn't Valentine's Day, it isn't a box of chocolates, and it certainly isn't a dozen roses (unless you like that sort of thing). Real romance is not what modern society has been taught to think it is. Real romance isn't manufactured. It is completely individual. Romance is for showing the person you love that you're thinking about them. It shouldn't feel forced. There are no limits to romance; it can be shown by a handwritten note, by going for a walk, or even by making someone a sandwich. Romance is something simple and sweet that reminds your partner why they fell in love with you in the first place.

"John, just sitting out here with you watching the sky is all the romance I need."

Cursed Romantic

Cursed Romantics are the most oblivious people on the planet. They are people that are good looking, confident, and get people to fall for them without even knowing it. These people are also great romantics who enjoy nothing better than being with someone, but never have the chance to do so because of the curse. The curse is a cycle of 9 steps.
Step 1.The person with the curse likes a person.

Step 2.The cursed person decides after spending a little time with the person that they are not getting the reaction they'd like from the person and try to move on.

Step 3.The cursed moves on to another person in an attempt to get over the last person.

Step 4.Person that the cursed liked originally realizes that they have extremely strong feelings for the cursed.

Step 5.Cursed obliviously follows after 2nd person, who is also not getting the relationship they want.

Step 6.This following of another person by the cursed causes the original liked person to become sad and hearbroken, especially since the cursed to too oblivious to notice that they original has finally returned their feelings for them.

Step 7.A long time later, the oblivious cursed romantic will found out that their original person liked them back. They will try to go after that person.

Step 8.Only to find that person dating a person that is one of your friends but lesser than you (not as good looking, fatter, drab, ect.).

Step 9.This causes the cycle to start over again.

Girl 1: " Did you hear that Steven never had a girlfriend? He seems like the kind who would have had a lot."

Girl 2: "Yeah, it's not like he's gay, he's just a cursed romantic."
