The movies can also be instructive. Over the years I've been inspired by films to do a variety of romantic activities. I always credited the source which showed I cared enough to pay attention. I wonder if it would be worth it to you to do a little research to see what your boyfriend thinks fits his definition of romantic. It could be you are speaking different languages when it comes to romance and you just need to figure out how to tell him what you want. Of course, there's the reality that he is who he is and if you can't find a romantic place/activity that you can enjoy together, you might just need to part ways. Good luck! I hope this is helpful and not just gibberish.
