I'm in a situationship rn, and the main thing that is holding us back from moving forward with our things is that I'm not romantic enough. I am more of a jokester, and for me, doing banter is inversely proportional to being romantic. Moreover, I'm not good at communicating with my partner because I have heard a few things about her that are stopping me from being myself. I try my best not to give attention to such rumors, but it has a major impact deep inside me, which is preventing me from being romantic. I am serious about what we have rn, and she wants things taken seriously too. I want to know how I can improve myself to become the ideal man she wants.

tl;dr: struggling to move things further with my situationship partner, and I want a few pieces of advice so that she sees me as her ideal guy
