I feel like men are more romantic than women. When we get married we marry, like, one girl, ‘cause we’re resistant the whole way until we meet one girl and we think; “I’d be an idiot if I didn’t marry this girl, she’s so great”. But it seems like girls get to a place where they just kinda pick the best option… “Oh he’s got a good job.”
