Do you agree that men are the true romantics instead of the other way around?

When it comes to love, men are romantic but women are pragmatic.

Women tend to judge a man based on his socioeconomic background, education level, current pay, job position. It occurred to me that girls do not mind if he has a belly that hangs over his belt or a receding hairline or if he digs his nose in public if he earns a nice salary, drives a coupe and has a cushy job.

    I agree with you here. A few years back a friend and I conducted an experiment. We went to a club on Friday nights for a few weeks. We dressed really casual and didn't appear to be of any real means. There were some regular club goers there, (women) who wouldn't have anything to do with us. Then, on the fourth week, we dressed extremely well. We had money to burn and didn't mind spending it. They saw the keys to my car, a Mercedes and seemed to be impressed. They paid a lot of attention then. The funny part was when we asked them if they remembered us from the weeks prior, that they turned us down for a dance or drink. They said no. It proved a point. My friend and I were the same persons we were previously but the appearance was different. This proved what these women were after.

    Now, as far as men being "romantics," well, it depends on the guy. Personally speaking though, I have never met a woman who appreciated a guy that was romantic. They thought it was "stupid" as one woman told me. //Steve

    some men can be romantic and some don,t know how. it,s a true fact that most women look how much the man is earning instead of how he looks. as for women i believe when a man is looking for a woman to marry they don,t always look at their looks but their personality and weather they will make good mothers and wives. so you see it,s not all about how a person looks. they can be a nerd and still turn out to be the best husband and father for their kids and the woman can turn out to be the best wife and mother for their kids. when picking a mate it,s not always about money situations and what they look like.

    Love existed since eternity and men is the 1st to verbally talk about his feeling and shows his actions towards the other party, its even shown in someone the animal world that males are the one that approach females and shows their interest..., nowadays men are still romantic but most of them could not find the right partner to show their romantics as life seems so fake and always get disappointed or betrayed

    we were teenagers, we loved true love someone in same age, but women always looks so far , far away for rich and wealthy life, so definatly someone with same age as her who is just building his future could never realize her dreams in a click , so even if she is in love she may at anytime think materialistic and change her mind to break her partners heart without pity, just to fulfill her greed and get richer faster by stepping on men's hearts and by using her body beauty to get faster to her goals n dreams...

    No, women initiate 80% of the flirting, men just go along with it and are oftentimes to stupid to realize that they weren't the ones doing the chasing.

    Some women don't care, they just want an ensured future and guys want to get the girl so they romance her.

    It really depends on the individual. I don't really judge someone based on any of those things.
