My gut response is to say yes. With the right person, I feel I am romantic. However, just to be sure I googled. And according to dictionary.com, I'm not so sure...
ro·man·tic [roh-man-tik]
adjective
1.of, pertaining to, or of the nature of romance; characteristic or suggestive of the world of romance: a romantic adventure.
2.fanciful; impractical; unrealistic: romantic ideas.<-- Say whaaat? I have to be impractical, and unrealistic in order to be romantic? All I want is a tall dark prince with a darling foreign accent to come galloping in on a chestnut brown stallion and whisk me away to one of his 4 castles. Goodness, I'm not asking a lot here!
3.imbued with or dominated by idealism, a desire for adventure, chivalry, etc. <-- Imbued, what a shmancy word. lol. But no, I can't say that I'm totally domaniated or *hoity toity voice*imbued by chivalry or romantic notions. Goodness, I have a life lol.
4.characterized by a preoccupation with love or by the idealizing of love or one's beloved.
5.displaying or expressing love or strong affection. <-- Ah, here's the definition I always go by. And this would receives a check.
Soo anywhoo. Let's say yes for the heck of it. And because I've really beaten that horse.
Are you whimsical?

Aha! I didn't even realize you had linked your adjective, I just thought it was underlined lol. Nice touch though.
And now that I realize it's romanticism to which you were referring, no I can't say I am very romantic.
