While I don't necessarily hate it, I wouldn't say I'm big on RP romances either. Some previous posts have already brought it up, I reckon, that some people take it way too seriously and OOC and IC start mingling together - with plenty of ruckus and drama as a result! That's not to say all my experiences with romance are bad, but I've definitely become more wary over the years before I open up to a romance plot.

I never center my RP around romance, however. I think it's a fun element to spice up the story and it'll lead to character development galore, but it's never the sole purpose of why I created a certain character. Nor do I particularly crave kissykissycuddle RP 24/7. In my honest personal opinion ( and it's okay if you disagree, each to his own ), constant romance RP would grow redundant after a while, to the point I might grow bored of my own character. I definitely adore it when it's done infrequently and inbetween my character's plethora of other adventures, but I'd rather not be RPing a romcom! Again - might just be personal taste. Big Grin

I suppose I could -do- romance, its just that it takes a -lot- to impress me and make me go n'awwwww.

My views on romance are a bit complicated. Woo me but master me, make me laugh but keep me on my toes, ohgodidontknowokijustdont.

Most romantic rp I have witnessed so far[and I'm -very- new to this game in particular], in public[aka the Sands], has made me cringe.

I think I'm going Â the courtesan route with my character as that way I can meet lots of role-players, yet don't have to pretend I enjoy being wooed by them once our time together is over.

Monogamy is cool, IF said character is worth it.Most are tools and are not.

I'm a curmudgeon, SUE ME.

** basically ,I just want someone dark, magnetic and brooding like the Winter Soldier and as sexy, so I can write long posts about rain, sex and -regret-. What can I say,I'm Slavic. >>

I don't do romances.
Sure, Cail would flirt immensely with guys, but never get too close. He'll make friends and some become very close friends, so heart-wrenching bromances? That could happen. But never romances.

There's a deeper reason for this, as I have a past of trust issues and once had a stalker fall for me after having an IC romance with him (and only IC!), so it's territory I'm very wary about treading.

I'm alright with writing romance, there's something about having an oc care about someone else a lot that just makes it so fun to tear it apartÂ me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
That said, I never expected Chouwa to settle into a romance easily given her history of short flings. Definitely pictured some kind of 'Ah fuck how do I avoid this' situation. Turn my back and the next thing I know she's crushing hard on the cute Au ra and said Au ra's crushing on her as well.

As for the kind of romances I like, I definitely like the romances where there's a clear partnership going on. There's an equal balance of power between all parties and yes there's fights, but there's also snuggles and silly jokes.

I'm also a sucker for height differences but that's just additional fluff.

I'm not in-game enough to start or sustain such a thing but fortunately for me, Mia is absolutely opposed to any kind of romantic entanglement.

Am I the only one who thinks it's kinda corny? :s

I avoid getting myself into romance RP. It weirds me out Big Grin

Nope. It's as subjective a topic as any other genre of writing or roleplay, and as such will have people who just aren't into it or just don't get it. Pretty natural when comparing hobbies!

Good character chemistry, perfect scenery to fit the mood, and some sweet moments with some cute words here and there. Icing on the cake is the thought put into it to make it special for the partner.

That's just how I roll.Â Thumbsup

OOC I like romances and find them fun. Though I really like when they are natural to the story and not forced. Character chemistry is very important. On the player to player basis, there has to be some trust between players and also respect in the fact that our characters are the ones in a relationship. Not us. So, being friends is okay. More than that, nope.Â

Leih is a hyperactive sweet girl with an independent personality, within her means since she's a slave without the title... She's also very trusting. She is more prone to see people as sibling figures than romantic partners, so if she is romanced it has to be someone who gets to know her well enough. And probably someone that can counteract her hyperactivity and trusting personality. Also someone willing to take it slow with her.

Altani Olkund.... well... er... She doesn't trust anyone and avoids getting close to people. So... yeah... Not seeing a future romantic life possible.

That's my take on romances and my characters'.

I enjoy playing with chemistry and the like with characters, though this does not always result in romance and that's perfectly fine for me. I regularly rip my characters to shreds emotionally, so affection is just another blade to cut with.

Mild silliness aside, as long as something develops naturally and intrigues me, I'm pretty okay flying with it. I only play romances with friends, though. I've had a few people get really, really creepy and that's just no good.
