Romance 24/7? I think most women would be more than happy with a guy who unloaded the dishwasher and ran a vacuum around every once in a while
Maybe the pressure to be romantic (whether or not a woman expects it) makes a man completely give up and do nothing at all.
As for those stupid romantic comedies...well, just look at the 'Manic Pixie Dream Girl' archetype that's so prevalent today.
And putting glasses on a gorgeous, thin, leggy actress DOES NOT MAKE HER A NERD/DORK.
I don't know. I think most women know that a man isn't going to wait around for years, pining for her. Or make romantic overtures every day. That's just not reality. (Wouldn't hurt, though.)
I'll take one too. I'll have to hide him in the closet though when my husband's home.
Unless we can get Kate Hudson for him...then he might agree to it.
I've never heard of "Princess Bride". Haven't seen "The Titanic", either, and don't plan to. I don't think people need to see romantic movies in order to get programmed, though; they absorb enough of that stuff from TV as kids, that they're already brainwashed by the time they get to college.
i dont know, i feel like women want to have a love like "the notebook" but in reality would rather settle for the rich guy who they think they'd have a great life with. Also the guy is most likely not going to be Ryan gossling trying to sway them to be with them
I am surprised. It was like THE 80s movie for people in their 30s. A cult classic for the geekier people. It is basically a fairy tale with weird animals.

You're missing out on one of the best movies of the 80s and probably one of the best romantic comedies of all time.
I mean Andre the Giant is in it, so it has to be amazing!
And as far as the movie The Notebook is concerned. I just watched it again this morning and realized that the entire problem of them being apart for so long was the result of her mother not giving her the letters that Noah wrote over the course of a year. Seriously. . . it might have been a good idea if she got a PO Box before he left to go to war so that she could have got his letters. And despite the fact that the movie was set in the early 1920s, I still think there was a federal law that tampering with mail and/or opening and stealing it like her mother did, would have involved serious criminal consequences including jail time. Like 365 letters = 365 charges in federal court.
It's kind of funny too that the main character did not decide to leave her soon to be husband until he already found out about Noah and was willing to let her go to him. I'm sure she loved the triangulation while it lasted in terms of having two men want her at the same time. So she probably did a cost benefit analysis of the situation: the sex was better with Noah - he was poor and didn't have any money so was more likely to worship her clit for a few decades - her parents were already wealthy and/or as wealthy as the guy that would have been her husband so her inheritance and money from her parents would be able to give her the life she wanted without a rich husband and Noah was willing to degrade himself to the level of a guy that would do anything to have her whereas the wealthy potential husband could just go out and find another woman in about 72 hours without a problem.
I'm just saying. . .
