We’ve all been there: You and your girl are hungry and want to watch something. She offers to pay for the food—but you have to pick out a romantic comedy.
Myself, it’s a no-brainer. I would gladly suffer through at least one episode of Gilmore Girls, Gossip Girl, Grey’s Anatomy or Secret Life of the American Teenager if it meant having free a bacon cheeseburger pizza or some spicy chicken in black bean sauce (both with french fries + a side of ranch, thank you).
Movies, however, are tricky. As dudes, we take pride in our movie selecting abilities. Don’t judge a book by its cover? Please. Spotting a bad movie is a skill, but movie hunting with a girl makes us feel like being on the train that is about to wreck, and we can’t do anything about it because we let out stomachs win out (again).*
You potentially have two hours of cringe-inducing kisses and acting ahead of you, so it’s time to act fast.
What do you do?
Well, here’s five RomComs you’ll both enjoy.
