Your most romantic experience...

It doesn't have to be anything huge, it could be as simple as a candlelit meal prepared from scratch from your favourite ingredients...

Although very grand gestures are also welcome. :D
 
The stuff I consider romantic is probably dull to others, but I just like thoughtfulness.

I have a hooded sweatshirt that I swiped from my husband when we first started dating. I wore it all the time in college and eventually it became the first thing I'd put on when I'd come home from work and change, and seven years later it was falling to pieces all over the place. I mean we're talking holes in this thing. And I definitely was not attractive in it so I thought my husband would rejoice when I finally had to get rid of it.

Apparently he had been searching online to find another one and when he couldn't, he went to a website where you can design your own hoodies. He picked the same colors, matched the lettering style, and even measured out the sizes. I came home one day to find that he had duplicated it so I'd have a new one to wear for the next seven years! It probably sounds stupid to most people, but I love that he went out of his way just because he knew how much I loved that thing. Lasts much longer than flowers or chocolates, and he didn't need a special occasion to do it.
 
I nailed a chick in the bathroom of an Amtrak train from Charleston, SC to Phoenix, AZ once.

She didn't even make me wear a rubber.

That was pretty romantic.
 
Making love in an open field under the full moon in early autumn.

No, that really is pretty romantic. :techman:
 
Last December, it was the backseat of my car in snow covered Layton Utah...
I had driven down to her in the middle of the worst storm of the year last winter.

Wow, memories...

Very thoughtfull of him:)

As for me, nothing particularly springs to mind at the moment:(
 
The one that springs to mind is from about six years ago, when I was dating the best friend of an ex-girlfriend (long story, never do it, they both went nuts). We had gone out and seen a movie, had lunch, enjoyed a pretty full Saturday afternoon, when she remembered that she needed to swing by EB Games and pick up a gift card for her brother, whose birthday was a few days from then. There was a mall only a few minutes from where we were at the time, so we swung over there and did the shopping. We decided to walk around for a bit, and we stopped in front of a gorgeous fountain on the upper level. There were benches all around it, and we decided to just sit down and watch for a while.

We wound up watching for nearly an hour, not saying a word: Just sitting there, holding hands and enjoying the never-ending stream of water flying into the air and landing wherever it decided to do so.

That was pretty awesome.

Also, my wife reads this board, so I'd better include my wedding day as a "most romantic experience!"
 
My husband isn't the most romantic person in the whole wide world, however, the most romantic thing he ever did was have a big bouquet of flowers delivered to work for me. It was great! The delivery man walked through the front door with the most enormous bouquet of flowers, and of course everyone in the office hoped they were for them. They were for me! I can't actually remember what the occassion was, but it's a wonderful memory. :D
