A hopeless romantic is one who looks for the a singular person on this world that makes their world come together. They are indeed looking for the man or woman of their dreams. As a result, they prefer not to live in reality. The hopeless romantic knows the reality of love is that reality has no business being in love. This is why they will often perform grandiose gestures that may be seen as unsettling or borderline crazy to non-romantics. But to the fellow few romantics, these same gestures will be adored as beautifully and obscenely quixotic. And such is the "hope" of the hopeless romantic- to not only find the one who loves receiving such love, but loves giving such love. And the true hopeless romantic would always rather give than receive. Because they know then and only then, will there be true love.

Get the homeless mug.Someone who believes in a true love. This true love endures time and circumstance in the hopeless romantic's heart. This person is a believer and a dreamer. They do not qualify as a stalker because they don't want to infringe on the rights of others. They are patient and caring. They may or may not know their true love. They forgive easily and are prone to broken hearts. They often see the world through rose-colored-glasses.

For example- a guy whom has been sleeping on a girl's couch (because he doesn't have a place of his own) talks a girl into buying him a winter coat because he doesn't have one and then dumps the girl as soon as she buys one for him. Then she has been "homeless rolled".
