A heightened form of interaction between people.

What’s your definition of romantic?

The romantic is a sensually and imaginatively heightened form of interaction between people, although I sometimes feel it is mainly a narcissistic experience entirely for some and a little for everyone. It elevates the physical sensation so it isn’t the opposite of the embodied or ‘sexual’. It engages the mind and feelings with the senses. It is a source of both truth and deception, for its root is the making of fictions. As Sir Philip Sidney said:

Loving in truth and feign in verse my love
To show.

As soon as you show it, you feign it that it is. But it’s potentially TRUTH of course.

Well so much for me! X

Love you truly💓🥺
