I think it should be in the seinen/shounen forum, no?
I'll move it...
Anyway~ My favs here are:
Hoshi no Koe
Chokotto Sister
Blood Alone
Toshiue no Hito
Kodomo no Jikan
I'll add Emma.
There's Honeymoon Salad too...
Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.

Personal favorite is Yesterday wo Utatte, but there are a lot of good ones.

NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...

Ciguatera - the best...
Someone should update the description on that series, as it says nothing about the storyline.. =/

i second both
ciguatera and
Yesterday wo Utatte
also Oyasumi Punpun...not really a romance, but there's a girl...and there's a bird in love with the girl.

Second and third all of these.
Subarashii Sekai isn't entirely romance (more vignettes of daily life), but it's good..... also 3 Gatsu no Lion

If you haven't read any other seinen romance manga, you should read those that were suggested here.
In my opinion they are much better than bitter virgin.
Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.

I just read Baby Leaf and quite liked it. It's not for anyone who doesn't like drama or think about something after reading though. This author is quite famous for seinen romance manga.

Haven't really read too many of these since most seem too melodramatic for my taste but i just finished D-ASH and it was great.

NHK is shounen. Serialized in a shounen magazine = shounen target demographic.
and just because no one's mentioned it yet, Jinjya no Susume is another nice one.
