I hate the idea of "romance".
I don't know if it's because I've experienced it too much or too little or because nothing good has ever come out of it for me, but it just seems so...embarrassingly cliche. There may be a certain charm to it, but going through the trouble of flirting with or wooing someone is so overrated that I can't help but see it as borderline disingenuous.
But this is coming from the person that believes that love is taking a back seat and letting everything fall into place on its own, and is expressed through small and subtle affections.
I hate romance, but that doesn't mean I'm not a romantic.
