Old-school loving
The art of writing love letters as a way of expressing your undying love for someone has now been replaced with a simple text message that reads “I (picture of a heart) U”. Going out on dates has also been replaced with “ICOTCU (I’m coming over to see you)”, also done via text message.
But what happened to old-school romance — the days of phone calls, love letters, going on dates and long drives to the country?
Are you still looking for old-school romance or have you learned to move with the times?
Olivia, 34:
I love the idea of romance, but only a few men know how to make a woman feel special.
Sheldon, 33:
Old-school romance is what I believe in. I still write love letters to my wife.
Justin, 28:
I think I like both the old-school and modern-day romance. Today’s technology puts a flair on the old-school stuff. For example, back in the day of writing a note to girl, you would have to do it on note pads with just lines to write on. But today you can write or type in handwriting format on a paper filled with hearts or use a picture of you and your girl in the background of the paper.
Roxanne, 37:
Old-school romance all the way for me.
Don, 26:
It’s all well and good to want to take your girl out on many dates and take her places, but things now are expensive. And most women today don’t want cheap gifts and they expect you to pay all their bills, so something has to give. We either keep our dating simple so I can save up enough money to do stuff for you, or we go out have fun, and you get your light, cable and water disconnected.
