    An ex moved from a nearby city to very near me. On the first night, I asked if she could hear the train whistle. She said yes and I remarked how cool that was. She didn’t understand that I meant, you’re very near and we hear the same thing. As mentioned at the beginning of this paragraph, we broke up.

      I guess I’m one of the few here, but I just don’t see what so romantic about two people hearing a loud noise that can be heard from literally miles away.

        It’s just a reminder that we’re not so far away from the people we care about

        What’s a little thing you find romantic?
