Bad idea, I think, until you can honestly say you'd be fine with a platonic relationship.

And you call yourself Romantic hardcore, Effers?

It would be better if she had an umm-girlfriend. 
What?! I *can* dream can't I?

>Romantic hardcore<
Yes. That is precisely why I use the term Romantic, and not romantic.

Well yes. Romanticism is an artistic movement. Think Romantic poets like Shelley, Byron, writers like Emily Bronte. Romanticism is essentially all about Love and Death. Everything bloodless convention isn't. I didn't notice Heathcliff respecting the marriage of Cathy and Edgar Linton much when he came back from his travels.
romantic is just some woosy thing as exemplified by the likes of Barbara Cartland.
So I was just questioning in a bit of a playful way, the idea that you necessarily give all hope once someone is 'spoken for', as it were. Or that they mightn't deep down actually quite welcome a bit of red blooded bowing to convention
'So what?' wasn't to be taken entirely seriously. Just as a bit of cheekiness given my tag. But now I've gone into this long dreary burble..it's kind of lost it's thing. But you did bring up my tag; and it did seem that the upper case R was maybe not quite 'got'.
