I’m still trying to figure that part out. Weeding out traditional romantic ideas. Not because I think they are bad.
Rather because I realize I was somewhat conditioned into romanticizing what romantic foundations are to myself based on society and internalized them. So I’m rehashing how I am and feel about many concepts. Those that I previously held.
So currently romantic to me:
A state of awe, triggered by emotion and appreciation of an idea or creature existing in nature.
Thus creating a bonded perception in the mind, in which you see feel and marvel about, in an idealized conceptual way that elicits, feelings of connection, and simple appreciation.🎓
So that’s currently the most approximate way I can describe it.😌
My mind however is very very easily triggered romantically .🥰
I love to romanticize the weirdest nerdiest things.
I try to be kind with it but sometimes I need blinders.
😄
Watching a ripple in a pond for some reason warms my heart.
Watching leaves dance in the wind makes me feel appreciated and evokes a strong 🥹.
Now as far as people and characteristics I’m attracted to in basic romantic mode.
I.E.
Friend, Collegue, those I admire or love for being themselves
I would say the top, kindness, empathy, humility. Independence. Eccentric. Expressive.
Artistic. Genuine. Candor. Understanding of themselves. Decent, Curious. Love of Science and Nature. Sense of humor is huge. Compassionate. Grounded but cloudy. Emotional Intelligence is a plus. Appreciation of other cultures and having an open mind is pivotal.
Ultimately how they think and how they communicate, interact and collaborate.
Essentially people to share the experience of life with and those memories
Essentially enjoying life.
To the best of your ability.
Sorry to make it so long.
Just my personal pov.
However it really made me 💭. So thanks 😊
Have a Fabulous Day
