I'm more of a friendship guy myself, seeing as I don't have the balls to ask someone out in the first place.

Wow...from "Romance is a waste of time" to "a little less romance" in less than 5 posts! That must be a backpeddling world record!

Bwahhahahahahaaa! Having been in a relationship for 12 years, I think my love life is just fine, cheers for asking.
But hey, if you can get by WITHOUT making any effort in your relationships....well, I hope the two of you will be very happy, and I have a puncture repair kit you can borrow if you need it.

Not really, there's just little else to do in any other threads.
Perhaps you should look to the issues of your own if you can't get by without actively having to inject life into your relationships. Personally, I'm doing just fine.

You're absolutely right; I'm doing exactly the same. But I enjoy watching you complain about being spoken to (or posted to) in the same way as you post to others.
I don't pretend it makes a difference in any way, but neither to I pretend to not be bothered by what is said to and about me, and post over and over again just why that doesn't bother me. Methinks the Stormtrooper doth protest too much.

Well...you haven't exactly done much to dispel that impression, so I'm sure you'll pardon me for voicing it!

Says you. I (and many others) say different. I'm not trying to change your mind here. Just pointing out how shallow and empty you are.

Wow...an entirely meaningless platitude that has just the faintest whiff of the profound about it! Nice one IB; a decent enough effort to try and make me seem in some way self-serving for actually wanting to romance somebody...especially as I didn't mention romance 'buying' anything; you just did. Which, again, says more about you than it does me! Anyway, to misquote Bill Hicks, I too have wasted romantic gestures. Doesn't mean I'm about to give up on women. I'd prefer an imperfect relationship with occasional romance than the sort of mechanically cold partnership you seem in favour of. But, to each there own; I've got no right to criticise whatever floats your boat. I'll take the proverbial, but I'll not criticise.
Staying on the subject, was this;

you?
I do believe in romance, relationships and all that.
Except for a while now, I've just been about drinks/meaningless sex and the refusal to phone her to see who breaks first.
And I win. Always.
Example: Last Friday she cracked and sent me a txt. I ignored it. She sent me another 30 mins later demanding I reply, because she had cancelled her evening with her mates in order to fulfill my perverted demands.
It is possible to be sincere, sweet and saccharine.
But it is also possible to be shallow, devious, insincere and boastful simply to add notches to the post.
I love being me at the moment.
