(Throughout the post, assume that the romantic is a guy and the romanced is a girl. Don't complain that this shows that I am a sexist because it is simply for ease of typing and not because I am a sexist. Don't be such a girl!)
.......BE ROMANTIC.

To be romantic, one needs to buy flowers, buy rings, buy presents, treat her to dinner, book a hotel, etc. All these costs the guy money. Precious money. Money that the parents work hard for. Money that one third of the world badly need just to barely survive. Personally, I live in Zimbabwe and I am under the group stated by the UN as being in "extreme poverty" - I live on less than US$1 per day. I tried to be romantic to girls, but because of my financial incapability, I have to resort to cost-saving methods to be romantic. Nevertheless, as of today, 26 girls have fallen into my trap, as in, fallen for me, and 15 of them asked me whether I can stead with them. I rejected all of them.

My advice and tips that will be presented to you are all well-devised by me and myself but I am willing to share my sacred knowledge to all of you. And because I know that you are already out-of-cash to be romantic, my e-book titled "Number 1 Award Winning Guide to Being Romantic Without Costing You Anything" can be read FREE OF CHARGE.

Award Winning Guide to Being Romantic Without Costing You Anything
Chapter One: Present Giving
There are many things to give to your girlfriend. You can be a romantic and give her a flower. Or you can show your financial status by giving her an expensive Diamond ring. You can show that you truly love her and only her by writing her a customized card.
But what if I tell you that you can give a present without buying ANYTHING. Hear that? Without buying ANYTHING!!! Well, its not that complicated.
Step 1: On a special occasion, maybe her birthday or your anniversary, go to her door and knock the door gently. Knock the door softly to give the romantic knocking sound...
Step 2: Put both of your hands behind your back, pretending that you have a present in your hands that you will be giving her. Now wait for her to open the door and look at you.
Step 3: Once she look at you, stare at her for about 2 seconds, and reveal your two hands and show that you have NO PRESENT for her.
Step 4: Say these magical words: "I haven't bought any present for you. But it's not that I have forgotten that its our special anniversary. It's not that I cant think of anything to buy for you. It's not that I do not have enough money to buy one for you. But its because, for me....the most valuable present that you can receive is me, myself and I."
You have successfully romanticized her. But most importantly, you have saved money.
Chapter two: Having a Dinner
Having a dinner with your girlfriend is expensive. It can cost more than $1.40. To make it worse, you need to give the waiter or waitress a tip, buy nice clothes and maybe give her a treat. As an initial advice, don't go to a restaurant. Go to a Kopitiam. To save more money, go to a non-air conditioned hawker center near Yio Chu Kang MRT.

But that's not all, there is one more KILLER ROMANTIC LINE that I use for every single hawker center dinner I have with my girls.
Step 1: Find a seat, a settle down.
Step 2: Because you are a cheapskate, there is no waiter or waitress to be tipped. No service charge charged. But you will have to stand up, go to a shop and buy food. Purposely place your hand phone and other expensive valuables on the table and chairs and tell her to follow you around to find food. Make sure that she notices them. She will be shocked that you leave such expensive items on the tables!
Step 3: Walk WITH HER away from your table, preferably far enough so that your table cannot be seen. Wait for her to ask you this question: "Darling, wouldn't someone steal your belongings?! They are expensive you know...."
Step 4: Look towards the floor. Then look up and stare into her eyes. Wait for a few seconds to give the intense romantic atmosphere. Now say this KILLER ROMANTIC LINE:
"Honey, I agree that they are expensive. I agree that someone could simply take them away. But I know that they can never take this particular valuable away from me, ever. That valuable that I have is...you."
How romantic is that? Without costing you much, you have made her fall into your arms. With proper knowledge, guys can woo girls without buying anything. With that, I end my e-book on How to Save Money While Being Romantic. I hope that my presence in your life has allowed you to get the girl you have always wanted.
