I can see the intentions are good in this image - and in that it is a better depiction of romance than a lot of the more empty images. Unfortunately you have been let down on th technical side. The harsh lighting has caused the hand tobe almost blown out completely, and the lips to have an awkward tinge to them. Always try to enter as large as image as possible, because people deduct points for images of this size.

I like this, simple, candid, but strikes a chord

The presentation (way too small) and the composition (over exposure/members cut) don't create a romantic mood imho.

Welcome to DPC - image is small, please see the tutorial "Using Photoshop to Prepare Photos for DPC Challenges." Better lighting would help the levels, so that detail in some areas isn't so "blown out." Computer over right shoulder is distracting. Also read up on "rule of thirds" for less-central and more interesting composition.

The image is a bit small - use 640px on the longest side. Also the lighting isn't great, its over exposed at the top.

I would say the subject is a bit over-exposed and out of focus. it is difficult to judge due to the size of the image.

The exposure/lighting could be better. A lot of the picture is over exposed.

I think the background is too white and bad shadows on the left of the subject's face, otherwise, a good idea.
