Nights in Rodanthe has a tragic ending and so does Message in a Bottle
Awesome! I shall research.

Don't get me wrong, I love Rambo as well, but The Notebook is just awesome.

It's fiction. Anyone who tries to apply these story-lines to their own life needs a little reality check. It's entertainment.

The vast majority of people (ESPECIALLY men) wouldn't know what romance is if it hit them on the head. I don't expect it, so I'm never disappointed.

At my age romance is dead. Been there, done that, paid dearly for it.

I cry every time and my girlfriend beats me with a pillow while calling me a sissy.
So which part of it do you want? Do you want to be the fiance who gets dumped? Oh, wait, I get it--you want to be the farmer kid/war vet who gets the girl in the end?

Sad.

I always say I'm not the romantic type but I secretly turn all warm and fuzzy inside when a guy does something romantic for me.

Legends of the Fall is the best (tragic) romantic movie out there, imo.

The most romantic thing a guy has ever done for me is remember my birthday and actually gave me a card.

Who says romance is dead
