Men: Can you not understand why it is that she tells you to be more romantic? You think about her everyday and do things for her, what more does she want from you? Keep reading to find out.

There are varying degrees of romance. Most people are romantic in one way or another, the problem seems to be the level of romance (most) men function at is not the level the women want them to. Then once in a while they'll surprise you and knock your socks off with something that makes you wonder why you ever doubted their romantic nature, shortly there after it's back to life as usual.

Low Level Romance: This is the everyday little things a person does to let you know they care.

It's planning going out of your way to give the two, (or more) of you a truly special time.EXAMPLES:Candle light dinner, a picnic in "our special place", a weekend alone to just spend together, Waking up to breakfast in bed the morning after, going to the theater...

Ultra-High Level Romance:Most people never get this, mainly because even if they wanted to, most couldn't afford it. It's doing something BIG and spontaneous.EXAMPLES:going to Italy for a real Italian dinner, taking you to Paris for the fashion show of your favorite designer, A vacation in Hawaii just to smell the flowers...
