Me neither. I enjoy all the “manly things” but I’ve seen some rom cons that were good as I’ve read some romance novels. Although originally as a teen I read them to get insight on meeting women
Completely agreed on all counts. Though I don’t think I’ve ever read a romance novel per se (does Don Quixote count?).
See, I never got “taught” any of that stuff. No siblings, no older male cousins, abusive parents, abusive extended family. And I was too “proud” to ask my male friends for tips. So, much like you, I watched goddamn Hollywood and whatever, to try and gain some of those insights…
Some people don’t seem to get this, but exactly as you said…
Does it make them “accurate”? Of course not, lol. But after innumerable failures with girls, I guess it was better than nothing, lol…

D-d-dulcinea..??
Sure, I know she is probably not real, but he is still clearly, uhh, infatuated with her!
Seen The Man Who Kills Don Quixote? It's weird, and I didn't really like it, but it is, uhh, interesting, to say the least...
Very Gilliam...
