The Difference Between Romance and Love
 
Romance is fleeting . . . Love is long.
Romance is dancing in the moonlight, gazing deep into desired eyes across a candlelit table . . . Love is saying: “You’re tired, honey, I’ll get up this time” - and stumbling through the darkness to comfort a crying child.
Romance is suspense, anticipation, a surprise . . . Love is dependability.
Romance is tingling excitement . . . Love is tenderness, constancy, being cherished.
Romance is eager striving to appear attractive to each other . . . Love is two people who find beauty in each other no matter how they look.
Romance is flattering attentions . . . Love is genuine thoughtfulness.
Romance feeds on itself and thus is self-consuming . . . Love is heightened and sweetened by romance, but it can survive without it.
Romance is delicious . . . Love nourishes.
Romance is seeking perfection . . . Love is forgiving faults.
Romance is flying . . . Love is safe landing.
Romance is the anguish of waiting for the phone to ring to bring you a voice that will utter endearments . . . Love is the anguish of waiting for a call that will assure you someone else is happy and safe.
Romance can’t last . . . Love can’t help it.
