Today, I realized my boyfriend is so seldom romantic that it actually makes me uncomfortable when he says something cute. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend told me that he feels empty inside when I'm not in the kitchen. This is the most romantic thing he has said to me in the past two years. FML
Ouch…
Today, my boyfriend told me that he becomes a boring version of himself whenever we are together. FML
Guilt trip
Today, I sent my boyfriend a sweet text message, since he recently complained that I'm rarely romantic. Instead of being happy, he decided that since it's so out of character for me, I must be cheating on him and must have only sent it out of guilt. FML
PDA FML
Today, after asking my boyfriend multiple times to be more kind and romantic, he looked at me lovingly and said, "You know, you look pretty sometimes." FML
Today, I was telling my friend about how my boyfriend never does anything nice for me. Confused, she replied, "That's odd, he's always doing nice things for me." FML
Lost in translation
Today, my boyfriend lamented that I do not profess my love for him as often and poetically as he does his for me. I try my best, but he's Italian and I am German, and this is not a level playing field. FML
Beautiful
Today, my boyfriend wrote me poetry. Here's how it went: "Roses are red, violets are blue, I suck at poetry, show me your tits." That's the most romantic thing he's done for me. FML
Today, I found out that my boyfriend purposely makes me cry because it makes him feel special. FML
Compliments are tricky
Today, I told my boyfriend he's handsome, which I do often. Not everyday, but maybe once or twice a week. He got upset at me. He said it makes him feel uncomfortable. We've been together for 3 years and I still think he's the most handsome man I've ever seen. FML
Today, my boyfriend of over a year looked at me and said, "Sometimes I just want to hit you." FML

Hopefully you don't have panic attacks when he tells you he loves you OP.

Must be a guy thing.. My boyfriend finds it amusing to lick his hand and wipe if all over my face.

So when he tries to put in an effort it is not appriciated and when he doesn't put in the effort it is not appriciated. And some wonder why most men think women are complicated.... Also you have to remember this is a modern time, gender sterotypes are falling away (as they should) so if you want some romance there is nothing wrong with you yourself introducing it. He might wake up to the idea more then too and it becomes a two way street.

getting my ex to show any emotion then when he was wanting to was like pulling teeth after 8 years together of pretty much a one sided relationship...I left, OP I know exactly how your feeling..talking can only do so much after so much time!

I married a man like that. I never know when he'll be romantic. And I almost have forgotten how to "kiss", because he "doesn't" kiss. Good luck OP. My Unromantic husband is wonderful! We have our own "me time" without pestering the other about it.
