There's a lot of talk about the positive aspects of love. We as a society downplay the danger, the anxiety, and the disappointment. We romanticize romance.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In a world where there is so much sadness and so much to be afraid of, good things do happen to people. Romance is still something we can find even if we're not consciously looking for it.
Love is a great emotion, but I believe it's not just about romance; it could be love for nature, people, for relationships.
The appeal of romance is love. And that's universal.
The essence of romantic love is that wonderful beginning, after which sadness and impossibility may become the rule.
Romance focuses on emotions and on relationships, both of which are fundamentally important to women.
Finding love is a fixation now, and that's because although romantic love can sometimes cause a lot of suffering, it can also give people peaks of happiness that come very close to our ideal of 'the happy state.'
Romance is a bird that will not sing in every bush, and love-affairs, however devoted the sentiments that inspire them, are often so business-like in the prudence with which they are conducted, that romance is reduced to a mere croaking or a disgusted silence.
Romance is tempestuous. Love is calm.
I have a skepticism toward romance. I believe that decency and companionship are, in the long run, more important in life.
Romance is mush, stifling those who strive.
