Your Most Romantic Moment

I hung out with my parents this weekend.
It’s really interesting how, when living with your parents, you are eager to get away from them, and then as soon as you move out, they become sort of…cool.
Anyway, in another one of my blogs, I am running a contest where readers have to share their most romantic moment. My mom told my dad about it, and said she had wanted to enter, but couldn’t think of a romantic moment to share.
They enjoyed a playful banter for the remainder of the day, where they each tried to conjure up a moment. The end result was that in thirty-two years of marriage, they had not had any moments.
I think the truth is that they have a constant moment – this is a couple that after three decades, still eats dinner together every night, and watches TV together each evening, and boast that they share a pillow.
I think just that they can’t pick out a specific moment sort of suggests they are never not romantic. Or maybe I’m just biased. :-

Wonderful story. I think you called it just right.
32 years of marriage and no romantic moments? Yup, that sounds like marriage to me.
