Hence the qualifier: "whatever "works" for who you and she are..."
Romance doesn't always mean mushy gushy romance novel stuff. It's simply expressing desire for the one you love.
Don't get hung up on how you look. Be brave and go for the girl. Worrying too much about looking pathetic would be a nice ingredient to create or continue a stand off.
Stillhope: Could this be an area for you to look at within yourself?
