What I Mean By Romance Roleplays

On this site many people offer to do romance roleplays but what exactly they mean changes with each author. This is the attempt to clarify what I mean by offering romance roleplays.

The first and main idea is that I play male characters and they are dominant. This should not be confused with cruel or vindictive, but instead with what role they tend to take in a relationship. Slaves are not what they are looking for in a romantic relationship and they are not seeking to destroy the individuality of the people that they are paired with.

I like other themes or events to be occurring alongside the romance. Depending on the genre these changes what exactly will be occurring. I do think that this can help the characters learn more about each other and help with the general flow of the romance roleplay.

The characters changing due to the influence of each other is also a nice touch. I prefer for these changes to be more positive or neutral.
