Flowers And Romance*

Is good, old fashioned romance dead?

How long has it been since you recieved a bunch of flowers for no reason? Or indeed bought some for your loved one?

A box of chocolates?

An unexpected call just to say ‘thinking of you’?

Just bothering to turn up on time?

Gentlemen - do you pick your date up? Do you at least offer to pay for the meal? See her safely home?

Ladies - do you make an effort? Do you put on your nicest outfit and do your hair?

In a time where it’s a novelty even to have a door held open for you, or a seat offered on the train, is it any wonder that the tiny lovely intricasies of romance are disappearing?

Wouldn’t it be nice to go for a moonlight stroll along a beach Or to go dancing, so close Or just to be swept off your feet and taken out somewhere surprising and wined and dined.

Or am i just old fashioned?

* i will just add that this isn’t a reflection on my own relationship!
