Visit movie and entertainment Web sites to see what is available. Romantic comedies typically have their own area or will be found as a subcategory of comedy.
Step2
Read movie reviews - and look for reviewers whose opinions you agree with. Keep an eye out for other suggestions and positive comments from those reviewers.
Step3
Ask friends and family for recommendations.
Step4
Keep a list of movies to see and take it with you to the video store.
Step5
Find someone who enjoys the same movies you do and treasure that person. It could be a clerk at the video store, an usher at your local theater or a friend who likes to see all the new releases. This person can steer you away from the so-so flicks.
Step6
Check out movies such as "When Harry Met Sally," "The Taming of the Shrew," "There's Something About Mary," "My Best Friend's Wedding," "Sense and Sensibility" and "Chasing Amy."
Tips & Warnings
If you're seeing a romantic comedy on a date, try to find one that balances the romance with other elements. "Jerry Maguire" is a good example ' there's sports for him and romance for her.

OK, whenever my friends come over, we always watch "Never Been Kissed." It is so funny! [Editor's note: This is the acclaimed 1999 romantic comedy starring Drew Barrymore and David Arquete.]
