People rarely change.

I guess my wife and I have different definitions of romance.

I thought the rose petals leading from the doorway to the sink full of dirty dishes was a nice touch.

How's he at other things, like taking responsibility, listening to you, and supporting you? So, you gotta go with what you have because you'll never get a perfect 10, as no one is a perfect 10. It may seem in the beginning they are, but once the newness fades away, things fall apart. Else, you may try finding someone who's romantic, but at the end of the day, he may just not be the person for you when it comes to other entities.

Punch him in the gut and say, "Kiss your princess ya fool"

I used to be, until reality just woke me up.

he's not gonna change.. you have to deal with it or move on.

Find yourself another boyfriend who is.

He either needs to make an effort or you need to evaluate if that relationship is working out the way you want it. If that is a deal breaker that he needs to be more romantic tell him it's an issue he needs to work on or you're calling it quits and finding someone more compatible.

My mind is romantic but my body is stiff and awkward

I have one of those guys...get used to it.

Yes...I always say thank you

well you could plan romantic things

I am romantic

Yes I am very thoughtful, I search year round for little things and ideas to surprise those I love with.
