Q: I've been with my boyfriend for three years. We are absolutely in love with each other, but of course I've got a couple of complaints. He's not romantic, at all. I've asked him to take me on dates, or go do something romantic for a day, and eventually he may take me on a date (after me repeatedly asking and basically planning it). But he has never done anything like that without me asking. I can live with him not being romantic, but I think every girl dreams of a little romance in their relationship. How should I handle this?
Sadly, most men are not romantic beings, now it isn't their fault they just aren't wired that way. You will probably be asking him to do romantic things for you for the rest of your relationship. Your best bet is to sit down and attempt to have a conversation about it with him, this may or may not help. I have been with my husband almost 3 years and have known him for almost 8 years, and I still have to ask him to do romantic things for me. I know he loves me, but he shows it in his own way. You are correct, every girl dreams of a perfect romantic relationship, sadly that doesn't exist. The best you can do is to compromise and realize that no one is perfect and to love someone is to love their little imperfections as well.
Hope I Helped :)

Thanks so much. This is the best answer I read.
