romantically frustrated

A type of frustration that arises from being single and wanting to be in a romantic relationship, yet you can’t seem to find a person who you are interested in and is willing to have one with you, or being in a romantic relationship where your needs are not being met adequately. The solution to the later may be to talk to your partner about how you feel about where your relationship is going and discuss your needs with them to see if you and your partner can find a way to work things out so both of you are having your needs met.
Derek: Why has Sasha been seeming to be so sad lately?
Kelsey: She is romantically frustrated. Her boyfriend barely spends any time with her these days because he is so busy with his job. As a result, her romantic needs are not being adequately met; so she is really sad these days.
Derek: She should talk to him about it and see if they work something out so both of their needs are being met adequately.

Kelsey: Good idea. I’ll suggest that to her the next time I see her.

"Well! This is nice scenery, I'd admit! Very beautiful as long as you don't think about the water looking like blood, or how many people would have to die to spill this much blood, eh? Hahaha... Molto romantico!"

"Man this place sure is cold. Imagine if we get lost and people find our dead bodies frozen in an embrace. It is as you say uh... Molto romantico."
