When you go to Paris with a romantic partner, it’s implied that you’re going because it is romantic.
<p>When you go to Paris with a romantic partner, it’s implied that you’re going <em>because</em> it is romantic. I’ve been fortunate enough to go to Paris three other times in my life: once with my mother, once on a school trip, and once with a friend at the end of a month-long backpacking excursion. Before each of those trips, no one had oo-ed or awed whatsoever over my plans to go to Paris. But now, 31 yrs old and with a boyfriend, romance was all anyone wanted to talk about.</p>
<p>When people asked if E and I were going on a romantic getaway, I laughed and said, “No. It’s just a trip.” I wanted to point out that no one asked this when I went with boyfriends to Ireland, Iceland, or India. However, to point that out would also be to ignore the fact that, while those places are amazing, they are not as synonymous with love and romance as Paris is. When you think of Paris, you think of people securing a heart-shaped lock on the <em>Pont des Arts</em> and gazing longingly into each other’s eyes while the Eiffel Tower sparkles somewhere in the background. You think of honeymoons and marriage proposals. You think of expensive champagne and sex.</p>
