Taryll

Have you ever sent a girl flowers?
"Oh definately. When? Valentines, anniversaries, just to say 'I love you' or 'I care for you,' I always send girls flowers. The last time I sent them was about two or three months ago. I send different types of flowers depending on the occasion."

What is the most romantic thing you've ever done?
"Erm, I've written a song for a girl and played it on the piano for her. I had been going out with her for about a year and a half. The song was called I Love You, and she loved it."

Love is...
"Love is caring for somebody--when you do anything to make them happy, and when they hurt you hurt too. It's also loyalty, trust and honesty. I think I've been in love before, I've been hurt."

Taj

Have you ever sent a girl flowers?
"Always. I've sent flowers to all my ex's, I mean before they were my ex's of course! I believe flowers should be spontaneous, they shouldn't just be for Valentine's Day or birthdays. It should be whenever you feel like sending them. "1-800-FLOWERS," that's the name of the flower company in the States--you call that number and they deliver the next day. They have great roses too. I like red roses--if I was a girl that's what I'd want."

What's the most romantic thing you've ever done?
"Erm, once I hid clues all over the place for our six months' anniversary. When my girlfriend came over, there was a poem in one place with a clue, and a rose somewhere else and a bracelet."

Love is...
"Love? Love is when two people are as one. They think as one, they act as one, and they have fun together, they want to be together. I believe I've been in love before."

T.J.

Have you ever sent a girl flowers?
"Yes. I've sent them to two girlfriends on our six months' anniversaries. I sent them to one girl at her school and she got them after class."

What's the most romantic thing you've ever done?
"For the same girl, I took her out for something to eat and then we went down to the beach, and I sang to her--a little one on one show. I sang our favorite songs, and there was the sound the ocean in the background."

Love is...
"When I a person is willing to do anything for someone else. Have I been in love? Well, if I haven't been in love I've been awfully close. I think I have but some older people might thing I'm too young to have experienced it. But I have been in a relationship where I've been willing to do anything for that girl."
