Can somebody explain to me whether or not men care about romance?
Women care about romantic things like getting a rose etc so why don't men? Are they socially programmed that way or is there something biological.

all the men i know are naturally romantics
they're so beautifully great. magnificent
men have an appetite for romance the same way women have an appetite for sex.
i dont think the rose example is very good. just because men might not value flowers as much as women doesn't mean they dont enjoy receiving gifts from an intimate partner.
>romantic
>rose
lol, romance isn't about giving physical objects dum ass it's a lot of things u dun know

Meaning. I was also talking about why men don't like receiving gifts as much. I actually went around Christian, muslim etc videos about marriage and they all said women care about romantic things while men do not.

It was just one example. Im on my cellphone. Don't want to type. Lol

men like receiving gifts just as much as women, but they prefer different types of gifts (eg tickets to a ball game, picking up a 6er of his favorite beer or bottle of favorite liquor, giving a surprise bj, etc)
>meaning
they enjoy it just as much, but often arent as open about it due to societal expecations (ie not wanting to come off as a softee, etc). thought you could have figured that out for yerself so i went with the snappy phrase

What about long walks and holding hands etc. I know these are poor examples so bear with me. I have been told by men all my lives that they don't care about these things. Someone I know told me that men don't need to be validated at regular intervals like women

We do but I guess different ways. Maybe girls appreciate getting roses, surprise picnics or going shopping. Men love food, so maybe bring him lunch to work. Or vidya like the newest Madden.

those two things are just specific examples of
>spending time together
and
>public display of affection
if a guy likes you, he will want to spend time with you. maybe long walks just arent his thing; everybody is different.
public display of affection also depends on person to person. some people love it, some hate it. holding hands is fairly benign, but some people just find it physically uncomfortable because of height differences or the way they walk or whatever.
people are generally unique and i think you just need to treat them as individuals as you meet them. try to forget about your expectations and just ask the guy what he likes and what he doesnt like. but if a guy never wants to compromise with you on ANYTHING or spend any time with you other than fucking, he's probably not interested in a relationship
