Can you give me an example of something romantic that your boyfriend/girlfriend has done for you?

During a casual discussion at the bar with my male friends it was brought to my attention that men do not neccesarily not want to be romantic, but simply cannot think of things to do like women can. I suggested that I would be kind enough to make a list of several romantic things for him to choose from and he could pick from this list. Please help me with ideas you have or things you've done; everything from the small stuff to soap opera style all out romanticism.

    Soap operas are too... serious. Do something that you could both enjoy. Like, maybe do a (for however long you two have been together) anniversary party. Maybe a nice walk in the mountains. Or a picnic? Whatever suits you both. If you both like sports, then you two could watch football in your living room with the fire glowing and the candles flicking with a really nice dinner or something...

    He made me a music box (I LOVE music boxes) with my favorite tune. He put personal designs on it, a bunny with a red scarf (because he calls me Bunny and my favorite color is red), along with some Christmas designs (because I love Christmas decorations and it was a Christmas present).

    After all the presents were exchanged between the family, he turned the music box on, held my hands, got on one knee and proposed to me.

    Also, for months on end, he would call me during his breaks at work to sing a love song into my voicemail, so I would have something to look forward to after my long shifts in a tough job.

    Another is that we celebrated "Christmas in July" where we both took July 25th off work to have a day with each other. We went to a park and fed ducks and swans, had Chinese for lunch (my favorite restaurant), rented Jingle All The Way and Nightmare Before Christmas and watched those, exchanged small gifts, he made us dinner, and we cuddled in front of some anime.

    For Valentine's Day, I made him a list of "101 Reasons Why I Love You". He made me a homemade card with a poem inside.

    For his birthday, I took him out to lunch and then we went to a small shop where we painted pre-made sculptures. I also made him a scarecrow doll, since he loves scarecrows.

    But I think we're kind of an odd couple, so what we find romantic might not be what you would like to do.
