That Is So Fucking Romantic (A List)


  • bare feet

  • a lady wearing the shirt that belongs to her lover

  • making sure your love interest is eating regularly

  • accompanying your love interest on a revenge quest

  • going into battle with your love interest

  • banter

  • 'I'm so upset that I need to have sex with you right now... but don't think that I have romantic feelings for you, because I don't.'

  • mutually unrequited relationships

  • "...you think a Princess and a guy like me..." (BIG YES.)

  • up-against-the-wall sex (bonus points if this takes place in an ally)

  • saying 'I love you' without actually saying 'I love you.' ("I owe him a debt." "I have a new dream/you are my new dream." "As you wish.")

  • forehead kisses

What is mutually unrequited? Both people in a relationship love other people? Both people love the other person in the relationship but don't realize it?

My definition is both people love the other person but both thinks that the other person doesn't love them. Like, I would argue there is a section of Pride & Prejudice where both parties think that the other isn't interested in them, even though they, themselves, are in love.

All of the above, yes. Plus the genderswapped version of "You think a princess and a guy like me" because oh man Leviathan was shippy enough to get me to ignore the horrible portrayal of Tesla.

Word to "you think a Princess and a guy like me..." BECAUSE YES. It makes me smile hugely every time.

I approve heartily of this list <333 Especially "accompanying your love interest on a revenge quest / going into battle with your love interest" oh man that hits the spot, lol.

Nothing says 'I love you' like killing your enemies together.
