Is it normal for a guy to write poetry and do you think its attractive?

I had a guy who wrote poetry for me and I thought it was so lovely!!

Yes, I'd leave it for her to see :o)

I think it's extremely sweet and any girl would be lucky to have a guy who writes poetry for them

I'm a girl, and I love guys who write :D

so lovely to do that

If that were me, I would love it. I think everybody is different. I think that some people might get creeped out a little. While others might find it charming. Poetry can be a very beautiful thing depending on how you look at it.

I used to write poetry, some of it for girls. In retrospect, I'm not sure all of them liked it. Maybe they have to be a certain type of person. I think most people would be flattered at the thought you put into it, though.

usually the guy thats really sensitive and all poetic is a big whiny bitch...just sayin.

You are cute for even posting this question.. I think it is a lovely quality that you have... You should post one of your poems for us to read!! :). Def let her read some or one of your poems. :)

It's totally cute!:-) show her!:-)

I personally don't write poetry, but I do commit much of my emotions to writing, usually in the forms of short-stories with generally similar overtones. I find that it helps me, especially in cases where a relationship can't happen (for any of various factors), or when I'm not bold enough to make a move.

I wouldn't be in the position to say anything definite on a woman's behalf, but if your poetry is written well enough, and doesn't come across as stalkery (which I doubt it does, especially if she's already your best friend), I'd have a hard time believing that it would be a hindrance.

Yes but a lot of the time just IME, unless She likes it, I pretend to like it but it's hard to understand and gets boring

In what world is this unattractive?

Depends on the girl. And their opinions. The way you make it seem with a previous comment, wouldn't hurt if she happened to find some. You may want to date the poems so she won't just think you BSd it in one night.

It would honestly depend on the poetry! If it wasn't well written or used bad adjectives etc. then it might be a little creepy...

why do people have so much trouble talking to woman or telling them how they feel its not that hard yeah if they turn u down its sad and embarrassing but once its over youve got ur answer she knows how you feel and you know how she feels put it all on the line and give it a shot if she feels the same imagine the joy you will feel if not you can stop pineing over the same woman or you can actually work to winn her over :) its easy give it a go

Well considering that so many people do appreciate poetry for the art that it truly is, she may not take it as seriously as you may think. Unless she is inclined in that area.
