I'm fine with romances as long as they are not idealised.
funny, my sister and I discussed this just last week. We were watching Disney's Cinderella, and we came to the conclusion that we would be better off if we hadn't been fed (and hadn't believed) those 'perfect love at first sight' things when we were kids. And I remember my flatmate two years ago being infuriated by Love Actually.
as for the Jane Austen characters... I very much agree with the creepiness of their sheme lol
