Josef will have to answer the question about romance flicks. I asked him and I think I remember him mentioning Garden State, which is the one I’ve seen.
As for people sitting on rooves (roofs?), when I was way little, a bunch of dumb-ass kids in my neighborhood would just randomly end up on their roof and I remember my dad explicitly telling me not to fuck around like that. This was in the late 80s / early 90s back before the internet exploded. We had to go on rooves and zip on ziplines in the woods and smash beer bottles and punch each other for fun back then.
Call me silly for saying so, but this is how I know that I missed out by being born in the late 90s. I think this also part of why I am still fond of the first 100 strips of It Hurts!!
honestly, you didn’t miss out on much. sure they’ll talk about what they did do, but whether or not talking about is what they didn’t do. lot of boredom and inertia that drives kids to start punching each other for fun.
basically it was boring as shit and there was nothing to do.
now I can look at videos of industrial accients or learn how to use a lathe whenever the whim takes me.
readily available entertainment and information through the internet has been pretty sick comparatively.
But if everyone was watching videos of industrial accidents all the time throughout all of history, then we wouldn’t have comics about children punching each other and walking around just talking crap!
Even ignoring going to the movies, renting films, reading books, sports, exploring, playing videogames, and so on, I still wouldn’t consider hanging out and chit chatting “nothing”.
I like how common it is for folks to sit on rooves in this world. I wish that was a normal sight in the real world.
While I have not watched much in the way of romance flicks, I still want to know which films you were thinking of.

Where is this story going.
And is it worth the amount of time you’ve spent stretching out this arc.
