Romance is a funny thing; a romantic gesture toward a girl is completely influenced by how she feels about you. Be careful before going out on a limb for that special someone, because if a girl isn’t into you, your attempt at romance may be perceived as creepy. Take a hint from the following examples, which would all be deemed romantic by a girl who is into you, and creepy by a girl who isn’t.

• Leaving flowers on her car while she’s at work.

• Writing her a love poem.

• Planning a surprise party.

• Buying a teddy bear whose chest reads “I wuv u!”

• Lighting candles in her bedroom and waiting for her wearing only a smile.

• Giving her a coffee tin full of your ear wax.

• Shaving her initials into your pubic hair.

• Painting a picture of her using only blood and feces.

• Taking her literally when she says she hates her parents; killing them.

• Finding her dead from an apparent poisoning when, in fact, she’s only pretending to be dead, but killing yourself by drinking poison just the same due to the anguish.
