How does one be romantic without being cheezy? Or are they the same thing? Beaufriend's b-day is coming up. Wanna do something nice, laid back but not cheezy and schmoozy. I got him a 3 year subscription to Popular Photography magazine. Its the gift that keeps on giving. It also means if he dumps me he'll be reminded of me once a month. If that's not romance, I dunno what is.
