public proposals. sometimes you can clearly tell the person who’s being proposed to is uncomfortable, especially if they dont accept the proposal. you just gotta read the room.
Where I live at least, going down to the docks to watch the sunset. Its only warm for a few months a year, water sprays up at you and theres too much going on around you. Houses on the beach throwing ragers, people stumbling out of the pubs and bars and doing wild shit. Other couples who had the same idea being miserable nearby. Just not fun.
Moonlight walk along a deserted beach. SAND CRABS ARE EVERYWHERE!! We walked along and then turned on a flashlight to see those little shots running all over the place. LOL. THEY WERE THEN RUNNING AT THE LIGHT!! It was a hysterical but horrendous experience all at once.
Sex on the beach. So much sand. The breeze usually is not as nice as you’d think on more intimate areas. Also peoples dogs may come running through the dunes right to where you are and they may try to follow the dog and you may wind up scrambling to roll yourself up in the blanket to avoid a very awkward and potentially criminal encounter. That’s super hypothetical of course.
Gifting a pet. That’s a ton of responsibility to dump on someone, and even if they do want a pet they miss the special moment of picking it for themselves.
Continuing to pursue someone after they rejected you. If I don’t want to date you and say no to a date, that’s not an invitation to keep flirting with me or pushing the issue.

Showing up without telling then you’re coming.
Like, it’s not my fault I’m not at home.

Romance
Paris
Showering together
Shower sex. Can’t stand it. Looks hot in the movies, dangerous and unrealistic in reality.
Long walks on the beach.
Proposing in front of a crowd. Even worse at a sporting event on the jumbotron.
Long walks on the beach.
The heat. The sun. The glare off the water. The sand that’s coarse and gets everywhere.
The Notebook
Randomly kissing someone in the middle of a fight
Proposing on any holiday!
Hey babe, here’s your Christmas gift. It’s a ring I could have given you next week, but then I’d have had to buy you another gift!
Romeo and Juliet.
Sex on the beach. Or sex in water.
Flowers
Sex on a beach. Sand…in…places…
Going out for a “romantic dinner”. I personally rather enjoy a romantic dinner at home.
Sex in the sand…
Anything done conspicuously in public to seem romantic, e.g, public proposals, especially surprise flash mobs.
The fighting/makeup sex cycle. Man, it’s exhausting.
Candles they are dangerous
Paris.
Sex on the beach. Sand, where you don’t want sand.
valentine’s day
Receiving flowers is not romantic, they die and dry up….
Big weddings. You’ll be exhausted and stressed out by the end of the night.
Beach whoopie
69
Involving food with sex.
Chocolate sauce and whipped cream in crevices you never knew you had are not a good time.
Spontaneous sex. Like damn I need a minute, and maybe a shower first
Making major purchases without discussing with your partner first
Meeting and getting married shortly after. Even if you believe they are “the one” please get to know them in the dating phase.
Pregnancy
Parenthood
Putting the person you are attracted to on a pedestal.
Obsession with the other person.
Making out next to lockers
Like go to class dude
Jealousy. Ick
Sharing earbuds. Movies make it look cute, but in real life it’s uncomfortable, awkward, and someone’s always getting yanked when they move.
Vacations with your SO. It can be suffocating!
Candle light dinner. Did it once. We almost burnt down our entire tablecloth. Perhaps we were far too careless xD But next time it’ll be an LED dinner

Singing to someone. It’s mostly awkward.
Kissing with tongue. I’m not a fan.
Couples massage.

Showering together- 1000% Either being drenched in the water stream or freezing cold. Never fun!
Paris
Serenading. I had a first date serenade me once.
I left the date feeling like he was going to try to wear my skin.
Absence. It doesn’t make the heart grow fonder.
Long distant relationships aren’t great either.
Showering together
Roses really smell like do do.

Pursuing someone after they say no or are already with someone else. Just creepy and wrong in real life.
Stalking… & being very persistent.
