^^

That reminds me of the romance of sharing body heat in the cold.

One of my favorites:

Once you say "I love you", a kiss has to taste differently

So true ^^ it tastes like troubles!

French :

"Oh, mon amour
Mon doux, mon tendre, mon merveilleux amour
De l´aube claire jusqu´à la fin du jour
Je t´aime encore, tu sais, je t´aime"

what does trouble taste like?

Translation:

"Oh my love
My sweet , my tender , my marvelous love
From the clear dawn to the end of the day
I still love you , you know, I love you "

Does this mean that one should make love twice a day? At the crack at dawn and before sleep?

No, it's a song about an "old" couple and how love change into something else through the years but remain the same at the same time. He loves her from the first day he met her till the last day of their life.

Certainly one of the most beautiful song about lovers ever written

here is the translation but it's way better in French. I know it by heart.

Written in 1966

Quote

Certainly, we’ve had stormy times.

Twenty years of love--it’s a crazy love.

A thousand times you took your luggage

A thousand times I took off.

And each piece of furniture

in this room without a cradle calls back

the flashes of old tempests.

Nothing makes sense.

You’ve lost your taste for the waters

and I for the conquest.

But, my love,

my sweet, my tender, my marvelous love,

in the clear light of dawn until the end of the day,

I love you still, you know. I love you.

Myself, I know all your spells;

you know all my charms.

You’ve protected me from pitfall to pitfall.

I have forgotten you from time to time.

Of course, you took a few lovers;

time had to be spent well,

the body must rejoice.

Ultimately, in the end,

we had to have a good deal of talent

to be this old without being grown-ups.

Oh, my love,

my sweet, my tender, my wonderful love,

in the clear light of dawn until the end of the day,

I love you still, you know. I love you.

The more time marches us on (toward our funerals),

the more time torments us.

But is it not the worst trap

for lovers to live in peace?

Certainly, you no longer cry as quickly;

I tear myself apart a little later--

we protect our secrets less.

We leave less to chance,

we’re cautious of the current of the waters,

but it’s always “the tender war.”

Oh, my love,

my sweet, my tender, my marvelous love,

in the clear light of dawn until the end of the day,

I love you still, you know. I love you.

Sad romantic.

"Break my heart. Break it a thousand times if you like. It was only ever yours to break anyway."

Thank you for this. Although I feel that I need to be more experienced in marriage to fully understand.

I love this one. Very, very true.

But this one " "Break my heart. Break it a thousand times if you like. It was only ever yours to break anyway." "

I think is fiction!

These are great.

One that I like to remember is: "Don't marry the person you can just live with. Marry the person you can't live without."

It's from "The Fault in Our Stars" if you want to read/see something romantic (and EXTREMELY sad )

Just like:

"I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you."

I would quote all the book actually

Interesting, this is all supernatural romance.

Do you know of romance novels that would be very insightful for me in the practical sense? (to learn more about my feelings and that of others?) learn more about scenarios, etc?

This is such a tragic story. I don't think I could stomach going through this!! I prefer positive and hopeful romance
