If a guy were to try to be romantic, what should he do?

Y'know. The guy bein' me, and I have no kriffing idea what to do in this sort of situation. Romance sort of wasn't part of getting Twi'leks to like me.

	Um. I guess it depends on what you want the outcome to be. You're talking about romantic as in this is your girlfriend type romantic? Is it a special occasion or a random surprise? Every female's different. I guess you want general ideas, right? Any idea what sort of things she likes? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It's my girlfriend type, and just a random surprise. She's never done this before - she was raised in the Order, and they were really strict in my time. I don't think she even knows. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Um. Anything the both of you enjoy doing could be considered a date, technically, if you plan it ahead of time and it has some romantic part to it. Though it doesn't have to, I guess. Mostly I just like spending time with whoever I'm dating and I don't care that much about the how or where.

You could take her to dinner, anywhere on the planet thanks to portkeys. Or cook dinner for her. You could take her out to see a movie. Or a play. Most women like some type of flowers. You could even go for a walk in some city and talk for awhile? Um. Picnics are a bit sappy but they work cause it usually shows her you've spent a lot of time thinking about it. There's amusement parks, zoos, things like that if you want to go for a more creative approach. Does any of this help?

	Sorta. Neither of us have really... you know. Done romantic crap before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You'll do fine. Romantic stuff can be nice, but I think if two people like each other, what's important is just doing something you both enjoy. Katya doesn't seem high maintenance, you probably don't need to worry about making every date a super romantic one. But that's how I see things. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Dare I ask what Twi'leks are? And in terms of romance, you're likely asking the wrong woman. Though I did have a very nice date the other night. Some of the traditions here are taking a lady to dinner, plying her with wine, and I've heard of going stargazing or some such. My experiences are quite limited, though, so I would suggest you ask elsewhere. Or ask Dean. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I wish you luck with your quest, Atton. Though what's wrong with trying to romance in the way you would have in your time? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thanks, Bela. Well, neither of us romanced in our time. So we don't know. (Reply to this) (Parent)
