Not liking romance??..

I know I sound like Scrooge from A Christmas Carol- he didn't like Christmas and I don't like romance!*

Does this make sense?

What do you call someone who doesn't like romantic stuff?

Same. It's always been the same sex

But the opposite sex tries to talk romantically and it makes me feel uncomfortable

We will never get along. EVER.
You may just not found the sort of romance that works for you. Also romance is very seldom welcome if it comes from someone you aren't attracted to - it's just awkward as you have to find an appropriate response to it.

I would say that a lot of standard romantic stuff makes me want to vomit, but an action from someone that shows how well they understand you can be romantic even if it involves no flowers, cards, or fluffy bunnies. I would rate not buying me an engagement ring as a romantic gesture (I got a dinghy instead)

Love and romance are the two things I can live without, relationships are a waste of time. Scrooge may have despised Christmas, so perhaps you're the Scrooge who hates romance.
Aromantic?
Romantic stuff creeps me out. Anything emotional or tender or lovey dovey makes me want to crawl inside myself.
