Here's a couple of Paramount's, 40's and 70's, these are cool enough even being stepthrough's and a flat bar.

I would encourage you to go ahead and get a solid one that you can find for a place holder if nothing else, maybe try and steer your SO to the cool factor, history, etc that many have with or without drop bars.

The other option as many others here will confirm is to convert one to drop bars, many here do it with our eyes closed and would be happy to help you along the way if you want.

And welcome aboard, glad you found us, you're in the right place.
