"A guy who can&amp;amp;#8217;t get gooey and lovey-dovey and starry-eyed is a guy who will not find happiness. But a guy who buys a giant candy box heart on Valentines day&amp;amp;#133;? Over time, I believe a man has to look at the little dude who sits on his shoulder and judges his manliness, that little fellah in the backward baseball hat who is a stand-in for all his bro-friends, and say: I don&amp;amp;#8217;t care what you think, I&amp;amp;#8217;m in love! But there are still some things I just can&amp;amp;#8217;t do&amp;amp;#133;. Following, a few places where I draw the line. I will not: 1) Go for a ride in a carriage, a gondola, a paddle boat or any other lovemobile Those things me want to pry my eyes out with sporks. Anything that includes a man in a top hat is just not for me. 2) Put my hand in her back pocket when we&amp;amp;#8217;re walking down the street I grew up kind of allergic to that. It reminds me of girls in my hometown who wore too much hairspray and their dopey boyfriends. Can&amp;amp;#8217;t do it. (Jessica wants to know your favorite romantic song) 3) Use pet names in public Can&amp;amp;#8217;t call her cookieface, or poo-poo butt, or whatever, in front of other people. And just for the record, I don&amp;amp;#8217;t call anyone poo-poo butt other than my daughter 4) Say the word babe Something about saying that word makes a little part of me die. I simply can&amp;amp;#8217;t say it. 5) Deliver red roses personally to her office Red roses alone I have a hard enough time with. And in fact, I won&amp;amp;#8217;t get them. But the office delivery? The grandstanding? The rom-com public display of romance? I&amp;amp;#8217;d rather drink and mustard milkshake. Where do you draw the line when it come to romanticness? What&amp;#x27;s too far? Am I being too lame-o guy-like with any of the above? Photo: iStock More Ways to Get Glamour You could win $50,000 just for registering for or logging in to Glamour.com!
