Maybe i shud start by askin if guys wud prefer a woman who is romantic nd no where nd wen to touch u 2 a woman who is only gud wth house chores...in a relationship,romance is very important.if i nid jst a responsible man,i'll jst stay in ma father's house nd if i nid sumone to do d house chores wth,i'll get a housemaid. U shudnt expct a woman to stay in a house for d rest of her life with her husband jst doin house chores nd nutin romantic nd expct d relationship to work,it will surely fail because d man will be d first to look out 4 sumtin new,am very sure....and i dnt tink d romantic man who kals her a dozen times perday,takes her out nd brings flowers can stil av time 4 d so called strings of oda girls wen he's nt workin wth MTN or AIRTEL so i saythere is evry possibility d romantic man will stil be responsible pls

A responsible man without a trace of romance/romantic attitude is a no go area. I believe every woman desires a romantic man at a point in time. And if the so-called responsible man is not able to provide her with it, she tends to seek it else where. Call me bluff, but I know what am talking about. Therefore, it is always preferable for a man to balance the equation of being romantic and responsible at the same time.

Am not saying a man should be overly romantic, but if he finds himself to be an overly romantic individual, he shouldn't restrict himself from pouring it out/ showering his partner with it .Or is it a crime??

carefreewannabe:

I am not a very romantic type so I don't expect it from a man neither.

GEtting flowers EVERY NOW AND THEN is a nice move and can make a woman's day happy but it is not that important.

I think most women prefer a responsible guy to a romantic one but even I, a woman who is not that romantic, likes some flowers SOMETIMES.
I hate being called 10 times a day and receiving 5 txt messages every few hours. Everything in moderation, please wink

either.

I think girls that are romantic can handle the not-so-romantic guys. But what about girls that aint so romantic? Using myself as an example, I believe I'm 80% Responsible and to have a guy who is all about the responsibility as a husband will just be disastrous. As we'll just be walking around the house like robots.lol!
And uhm being romantic means showing affection n its not just about opening the door and buying flowers.

To all the dudes in the house: if you aint romantic, you should learn how to be or at least make the effort to be. If not your girl might just start thinking of how romantic her ex was and b4 you know it, she's calling him and that's NOT a good sign! My one cent.

Pertaining to the issue of women not knwing what they want when it comes to relationship,I fink the prob is from guys. Guys can be very confusing..Today, a guy is caring and all and tomorrow the gurl bcomes 'an object' he doesn't want anything to do with. So don't blame the ladies.

Romance and being responsible are the duties of a man n his wife. In my opinion, I fink ladies prefer a romantic man to a ' responsible' man.

Been there done that..I used to be 'responsible' but e no pay me...being romantic pays attractive dividends
Re: Ladies: A Romantic Man, Or A Responsible Man? by Nobody: 8:48am On Dec 06, 2012
Op,, it depends on ur own definitn f romantic, being romantic doesnt make a persn irresponsibl or woteva...bsides,it's even a romantic man dat does things 2geda wit her wife lyk stay in d kitchen wit her yl she cuks etc...no gal wil lyk a man who doesnt rem her birthdy, buy her things, take her out or giv her a special treat on val's dy or any oda special dy....
As 4 me, i ll go 4 a ROMANTIC man, anydy, anytym, anywher.....

Re: Ladies: A Romantic Man, Or A Responsible Man? by antichelsea(m): 11:21am On Dec 06, 2012
NO MAN WAS BORN RESPONSIBLE NOR ROMANTIC. WE GAIN THESE ATTRIBUTES VIA ERUDITION. I THINK LEARNING HOW TO BECOME ROMANTIC WOUND'T TAKE LONG COMPARED TO THE OTHER.IT EVEN REQUIRES DIVINE INTERVENTION FOR ONE TO BE RESPONSIBLE. BUT WHO SAYS THEIR RE NO RESPONSIBLE AND ROMANTIC GUYS? THEY ARE OUT THERE, LIKE one in a million guyz.
Re: Ladies: A Romantic Man, Or A Responsible Man? by Tokotaya: 11:26am On Dec 06, 2012
Let me share an experience. The wife of a Pastor was delivering a sermon in a church in FESTAC recently and severely tongue-lashed Nigerian men for not being romantic. The girls screamed in agreement, while the boys grumbled. To prove her point she asked the men to raise their hands if they had bought flowers for their wives at least once since the year began. Only four of about 150 men in the audience raised their hands. She asked again, how many had treated their wives to a candlelit-dinner at least once. Only one man raised his hand and the women cheered him happily and glared at his wife with open envy. The next question: ‘This is the House of God, so please don’t lie. How many of you tell your wife ‘I love you’ first thing in the morning and last thing every night? Silence! The preacher thought that proved her argument convincingly that Nigerian men needed deliverance.
But this woman preacher, like most modern women have imbibed too much of foreign values that they don’t even know what is good for them. What will flowers do for a woman? She collects them in the morning and throws them into the trash can in the evening. What is a candle-lit dinner? These unfortunately are the signs some women look out for to be assured a man loves them. I say they are mistaken. Forget that rubbish about flowers and candle-lit dinner and watch out for signs of responsibility. A man may not buy you flowers, does he provide for you within his means? Does he stay at home with you and the kids when he has spare time? Does he offer to take care of the kids when you are tired? Does he sweep the dirty living room when you are getting dinner ready? Does he remember to send your mother money as often as he sends to his? Does he think nothing of emptying the trash cans occasionally and even cooking sometimes when he gets home before you? These are acts that add value to the life of a woman and ultimately improves the quality of her life.

Both traits do not always overlap. Depends on how you see 'responsible' and 'romantic' sha.
