First off, This is a really good Choose and Defend..
I have in the past used my heart to guide me.. I'm part romantic, but also a bit practical.
I have been stung in the heart many times by previous people.. but I still let my heart guide me.. I guess in the end I would say Romance..
I have to say...REALISM. I want that shirt, too. Romance is nice, but it's the exception, really. I've been a realist for much of my adult life and I like it just fine.
Realism. I am all about being realistic!
I like that realism shirt!
But I can't chose - I have to vote for a balance between heart and head.
I'll go with romance, even though sometimes it is overly romanticized in movies (like love at first site which I'm not sure I believe in anymore). However, being too much of a realist can suck the much-needed romance out of life.
Out of that tangle of words, I choose "romance".
Rats... this is as tough one. I do not consider myself to be a romantic. But I am impulsive, which isn't that smart.
Way practical. But hard to defend.
I'm all heart. So, I'll go with romance. But I want that romance to be real, not a guy just doing or saying what he thinks I want to hear, for the sake of a conquest.
Mrs: I'm glad you liked it! And I think it is good you haven't let losers change you. One for Romance.
AlienCG: You are a man who knows what works for you and that is definitely a good thing. One for Realism.
MrManuel: I can tell you are a romantic guy, but you'd know your driving force best! Two for Realism.
Secret: No, no! No balance! There is no balance in Choose and Defend! But okay...both :-)
Tara: Yeah, I don't think being romantic means we don't accept certain irrefutable realities. Two for Romance.
Ananda: Hm. Well, where shall I place you on the Choose and Defend scale? I guess being impulsive seems to go along more with Romance than Realism, so that is what you're getting :-) Three for Romance.
Pamela: Aw, you can defend that! You are a girl with her head on straight! Three for Realism.
Churlita: You are clearly big hearted. And I agree that it isn't romantic to get snowed, so to speak. Four for Romance.
Everyone: Close race, thus far. Secret Agent Woman is on the fence, but otherwise Romance is slightly ahead of Realism at 4-3. Weigh in if you haven't. The world needs to know.
In spite of wanting to be a realist, I'm a romantic. All the way.
I don't think I'm very romantic. realism for me.
If we're talking about love, I'd have to say I have a realist bent. Maybe it's age or due to the fact I get jazzed about the simple things rather than fru-fru. But I prefer a brief, sincerely spoken word of appreciation rather than a cookie-cutter greeting card.
Sebastien: Nothing wrong with being a romantic. Don't change a thing! Five for Romance.
FW: You are a thoughtful realist. Four for Realism.
'Ailina: We are talking about heart vs head. One usually prevails. Five for Realism.
Eveyone: Oh my. It is a tie, 5-5, in the battle between Romance and Realism. Awesome.
