Justin Bieber thinks he's romantic! He recently revealed what kind of dates he likes to plan!
He said: "I guess I grew up with my mom, so she influenced me a lot. So growing up and having your mom always around you, you become a sensitive guy.I think it's up to the guy to be romantic. I think it's the guy's responsibility to take her out. It can't be the other way around. That would take away my masculinity; I feel if that would happen. I think that the most romantic things to do for someone are the things that you spend time on."
