Romance

Okay, so you know how sometimes when you really like someone a lot, you might feel all happy and excited when you're around them? That's because you have romantic feelings for them.

Romance is when two people have special feelings for each other and care about each other a lot. They might go on dates, give each other gifts, and spend time together doing fun things. Sometimes, they might even want to be boyfriend and girlfriend or get married someday.

Romance is all about showing love and affection for another person in a special way. It makes people feel happy and loved when they are with the person they have romantic feelings for. It's like having a best friend who you also want to kiss and hug a lot because they make you feel really special and happy.
