Persian doesn't do romance casually. It packs entire poems into single words. عزیزم (azizam) means "my dear" but it's used the way English speakers say "honey", dozens of times a day, in every kind of conversation.
قربونت برم (ghorboonet beram) literally translates to "may I be sacrificed for you", which sounds intense in English but in Farsi it's thrown around affectionately, like saying "you're the best". If your partner is Persian-speaking, hearing you try these phrases will mean something.
