Nov. 26th, 2006 12:40 pmI gleefully admit I'm addicted to romance novels. At one point, before I culled my book collection, I had over a thousand of them. I loved the cheesiness of most of them, the blatant conventional ways of people hooking up and the cheesy euphemisms.
What I want to know from you all is..... if you've read romance novels (enjoying them or not), what's the cheesiest thing that the hero/heroine has done to court the other?
If you have or haven't... what's the cheesiest thing you've heard about in real life to court someone else? I'm not asking for horrible pick up lines, but things like buying flowers and chocolates, "riding a horse cross the country because ZOMG she left and you realised that you loved her after she stepped on the train and you just missed the train" and that sort of thing.
I'm counting on you, flist. Give it to me.
Cheesy, silly, actually romantic... what all are some courtship rituals you've read/experienced/heard about?
why yes, this might be for a fic, why do you ask?
