romantic goth 

The romantic goth embodies what the original gothic style of arcitecture and liturature were all about: romance, decadance,an ornate asthetic,and the view that darkness and beauty are one in the same.

They have an appreciation for vintage clothing from many eras, but most have a particular fondness for the Victorian style. It was during the Victorian era that the gothic liturature movement emerged. Most romantic goths are avid readers of books from that movment and books in general.

They tend to be creative, imaginative, idealistic, sentimental, and have a love for all things old fashioned.

Amanda Palmer from the Dresden Dolls is a romantic goth.

romantic goth 

A darkness loving, very emotional aspect of the gothic culture. Poetry and lace are highly valued, as well as corsets, velvet and coffins. Many are inspired by Victorian fashion and vampires. Very ghostly and dreamy.

Sat in the pew of a Church, tying a new scrap of black lace around a new self inflicted wound, while singing in Latin and attempting to read another's palm at the same time.

romantic goth 

A subspecies of goth, known for it's love of fancy Victorian clothing, poetry, and wispy ethereal music. The sort that you'll find reciting Shakespeare under willow trees in cemeteries on moonlit nights while weeping tragically or some such.

romantic goth 

happy. usually likes black and red. wears lace, velvet, and interesting makeup. usually in love, hence the name "romantic". likes to dress up, wear hair in different ways, and has obsession with red roses, or even black roses.

what a romantic goth is not: emo, sad, whiney, wrist-slitting, obssessed with reputation/friends/myspace

a romantic goth girl:
usually wearing black with minimal red, carrying red/black roses from her boyfriend. is "dressed up", looks somewhat professional, and has a smile on

a romantic goth guy:
like the girl, usually wears minimal red with lots of black. carries black/red roses and other various tokens of love for his girlfriend. may have normal hair, but not always. usually smiling, but only if he's with his lover

Also see Romantic goth
The term Romantigoth is know to represent a sub catagory of Goths.
They are usually very deep and passionate and most likely have been hurt by a loved one at some stage of their life...
They associate not with the usual death-metal type music, but with deep ethereal-like songs.
Again, unlike most other Goths, they do not wear all black, but often will wear old Victorian clothing, think 17th - 18th century.
Associates with deep purple, dark blue, blood red, and black

Think Morticia and Gomez Addams for the ultimate version of romantic Goths.
