Big romantic gestures aren't a requirement for deep love. It' perfectly possible to love someone without them
No, they're not. Sorry if you thought I'd implied that.
I don't get that feeling from Jack with regard to Ianto, with regard to Gwen yes, but Ianto no. It's nothing to do with Jack being flirtatious. He could come across as super serious about Ianto to me and I wouldn't expect him to stop flirting. I'm not that bothered about the flippant and I would be even less so if I felt Jack was underneath it all serious. But I don't.
Here again, it's all personal perspective. I see Jack as having strong feelings for Ianto, but having trouble expressing them or even working out what they all mean. If can't see any feelings then I guess you wouldn't see any hope for the relationship.
