Is Romance Innocent?

posted for Zane

I was thinking about this and whether or not us girls do use romance as a weapon as Andy suggests. Must admit, sometimes we do (except teenagers, but they’re a different story all together!). But so what? Just because we know how to use romance doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. It just means we are more clever at it than men. Women know that a ‘romantic girl’ makes a man feel good – big smile + happy eyes = very pleased man! (see, I can do maths too!) So yes, romance may have a dark side and maybe is not so innocent but it’s no less real for that. And like it or not, men know this too. They use romance to try and control us girls. You like us to be calm and happy and let you sit in lovely silence and do your thing and to get that you know what you need to do from time to time. So you can’t have it both ways. You can’t manipulate by it and then blame women for being needy and romantic. As I said before, the truth is that we are all romantic but probably for different reasons)))
