• Short-lived relationships: They may chase the "honeymoon" phase and leave relationships before they become real or require effort.

• Believe in love at first sight: They often fantasize about instantly knowing someone is "the one."

• Big on romantic gestures: Romance is crucial, and they may see grand gestures as signs of having found their match.

• Expressive with emotions: Hopeless romantics are often very expressive about their feelings, planning elaborate dates and writing love letters.

• Obsessive tendencies: These individuals may exhibit obsessive behaviors, becoming overly possessive or jealous.
