The Difference between Romantic and Sentimental

"I'm a romantic; a sentimental person thinks things will last, a romantic person hopes against hope that they won't."
- F. Scott Fitzgerald  I just heard this quote last night. I love it!

 Are you a romantic ? Or are you a sentimentalist? 

I have worked my entire life not to be sentimental about to many things. Ok I am going to admit right here, right now that I am a sentimentalist according to the definition above.
