| Are you a romantic at heart? I really don't know where this is coming from - or worse, where it might be going - but whatever... |

| I'll admit it.. I'm a romantic junkie. I absolutely adore chivalry, and everything of the like.  It's all so sweet. That's why I dance, and why I am obsessed with history, that's why I do so many odd things... I love romance!

| Once you break me down, and crack the shell, and get to know me, I'm a romantic. If you dont know me that well, then I appear as an emotionless bastard, a real dick, and not very good with social skills.

| Aww! DFP, are you allowed to admit that you have emotions? I thought that your insouciant way of life wouldn't permit that.. you remind me of someone... now who..
(and by the way.. I'm glad that you have emotions!!! Yay!)  hehe

| Check out Le Morte d'Arthur, 300+ years later and it still rocks.

| Le Morte d'Arthur not a bad book, i also like all those old-fashioned books. And yes like DFP, people think im a completely psycotic wanker before you get to know me properly. but then i still have the social skills of a newt. I'm such a bubby, i cry at all movies like bambi and Jeanne d'Arc shhhh dont tell anyone. (was that relevant?) ah well it could be cos i like happy endings.

| Romantic? Emotions are for those crazy, left wing, hippy pinko commies. What is is and what will be will be. You people waste too much time on the details. |

| Sigh, am I the only person who thinks romantic and doesn't think love right away? There's a whole dimension to the word that applies cross boundries but isn't pertaining to chivalry and/or love. |

| well, I know that romantic isn't only love and chivalry, but love is the first thing that pops into my head when I hear 'romance'. Anyway... love is a great thing. The world can always use more of it.

| Sometimes I think that i'm the only guy that thinks with his heart and not with his dick around where I live.
And that was a really long sentance. Here's some punctuation to make up for it: ,.!?""'':;

| Romance and fencing are mutually exclusive for me. And I'm defined by my fencing. So no, a romantic I am not.
