Has a love interest ever made a move on you that left you thinking “Aw hell, I know he didn’t just do that!” or maybe “Aw, that was cute. Corny, but cute.” There’s a fine line between what is considered romantic and what is considered corny. What a person deems as romantic or cheesy is their prerogative and unique to their own individual perspective; however, for humor’s sake, check out some of these gestures that are meant to be romantic but don’t always come off that way.

Too much PDA
I happen to think it’s cute when a couple sneaks in an occasional smooch or two in public. It just a small way that they can show affection to one another. What isn’t cute is when people are all over one another to the point where they’re practically doing the deed in public. When public displays of affection make the other people who are around want to gag or forces a parent to cover their child’s eyes that’s a problem. People tend to mentally categorize these gestures as many things but romance is rarely one of them.

The “hot” phone voice
LOL, I don’t know who sent out that lying memo telling people that there was something romantic about the hot phone voice but they were dead wrong for that. Corny doesn’t even begin to describe this deed. Don’t get me wrong, some people happen to like when they are spoken to in the mack voice, others may find it difficult to hold in their laughter.

Public booty grabbing
LOL, no seriously are we in high school because that was the last time I saw booty grabbing and didn’t think “Wow, these people are mega cornballs.”

The couple’s name plate
LOL, I am sooo guilty of this one. There was a time when I walked around with what looked like a paragraph hanging around my neck that read: Jazmine & George. Looking back this was probably one of the cheesiest things I’ve ever done in life. Stop laughing at me, you know you had one, too!

The hand in back pocket
There are some people who find this to be romantic while most find it corny. I witnessed my parents attempt to do this once and I nearly died. I don’t really understand the point in this one and it has to be really uncomfortable attempting to walk with your hand in someone else’s back pocket.

The ear lick
*GAGS* Some are turned on by the infamous ear lick. This happens to be one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever experienced in life. I’ll never understand why anyone would think I want their hot stinking spit in my ear. Keep that tongue (and that spit) far away from my ear.

Serenading
I’ve never witnessed this being done in person before, but I can imagine that it is a pretty humorous site to see. It probably can also be pretty embarrassing depending on how bashful the person being serenaded is as well as if the person doing the serenading isn’t so musically inclined.
