I love to get flowers from my husband. He always brings home some after he has been away with work and also on our anniversaries and my birthday too. Its one of his ways of showing me that he loves me and that he has missed me whilst hes been away
I love getting flowers. Even if the guy picked a dandelion. The fact that he thought I'd like it, very sweet. I'm easy to please.
Love getting flowers. But honestly wild flowers picked by your man is perfect knowing he put forth the love is priceless.
I think it's cute if it is just out of the blue and you aren't expecting it. I guess the spontaneity of getting them is the best part. If it's on a commercial holiday then it isn't that special.
They definitely aren't necessary though. They are crazy expensive.
Certainly ....... I to give flowers to friends ,
I love flowers in general, so they're always a good gift that I will appreciate! Although, spontaneity is the best part for sure.
I love flowers because they are pretty, smell nice and bring a smile to my face. Doi expect them.....no. Do I need them.....no. I just like them.
Art can never exist without naked beauty displayed. I have always utterly adored getting flowers
Im big on "flowers for no reason" for my wife. Shes beautiful, sexy, an amazing lover and a great mom. She gets a boquet at least once a month "just because"
Wondering how many women think to send flowers to their guys???
I do like them - but one fabulous flower is just as good as a huge bouquet. Really, it's the thought behind it.
Just avoid them on the first date. And really until we're 'generally going out', I wouldn't bother with them. I might be more sensitive this way because I have had the experience of 'early use of flowers' correlate to 'scary/unstable men' so now it has the ability to make me a little anxious if there's flowers right out of the gate. That's just me though. Due to six months of being terrorized by a legitimate stalker, yellow roses still have the ability to turn my stomach and unnerve me.
Once in a relationship or in the early stages of "wow, we're both into each other, this is awesome" - flowers are definitely a nice thing - especially if they're unique or have a personal touch - like you picked them out yourself or maybe a certain flower made you think of me. To me, the default roses feel overly formal. There are so many pretty flowers in the world that are more interesting and also cost less.
I like flowers but if someone wants to make an impression on me chocolate is a better choice for me I have a very big sweet tooth
Flowers don't impress me. I look forward to reading the love notes attached to the arrangements more so than the flowers themselves.
I'm married so - I don't like being given flowers in a bouquet. It's something to maintain. I have to water it, clean up after it, and dump them out when they die. For how expensive they can get they're a complete waste of money to buy.
They're pretty - but all the negatives outweigh that.
But I'm married to a guy who thinks he's a romantic sap. He loves wasting money on bouquets.
I think it's because it's lazy. Birthday? Go to Walmart and buy a bouquet. Christmas? Walmart - bouquet. New Years, Valentines, Anniversary? Walmart bouquet Walmart bouquet Walmart bouquet.
I stopped trying to put thought into gifts for my husband because it became clear he didn't ever consider putting effort into mine. Giving something that requires maintenance and will still die is just stupid.
A few years ago he actually bought me a dozen dozen roses. TWELVE FUCKING DOZEN ROSES! What in the FUCK for.
Jesus - that was like $200 in flowers that stunk in such a high number I had to put them outside.
I appreciate any gift that I receive. However, flowers are my least favorite gift. I would prefer something that would not die. To me it is ironic that flowers (roses) are considered a sign of someone's affection, yet they die in just a few days.
I like getting flowers but under the right circumstances. I have had guys bring me roses on a first date and send me roses after a first date and while I was flattered it was also kind of creepy and made me feel he was going a little to fast. But after a few dates, getting a single rose is nice. And if we are in a relationship, flowers are always appreciated although this may sound weird but I much prefer potted flowers I can plant in my garden instead.
I love flowers. There is no wrong time for flowers in my books. I will always appreciate flowers, with one minor exception. I hate carnations.
I love flowers, but like some of the ladies have said, I prefer when it's for no special reason. I love getting ones that are different, I got a beautiful Guzmania plant once that completely blew me away. The best one though must have been when I got this weird, prickly looking fuchsia coloured one with a note that said: "This reminded me of you, it was prickly, just like you." Best flower ever.
Gasp.......some of you do, some don't. No wonder us guys get confused!
Each to their own I suppose. I'm just a romantic dude at heart and it's the thought that counts.
Nice tip about chocolate btw.
My Karma just ran over your Dogma
I take pics of flowers for my love all the time.
It's been a long time since I've purchased flowers and had them sent or given them myself to a woman.
But it's been a long time since I've met that woman to give them to, too.
I've never thought or heard of giving any as a joke though. I don't get that kind of humor.
I once received a bouquet of red roses for my 35th birthday at my office. That was unexpected and very touching. I appreciated her gesture greatly. Especially since I wasn't aware that she had a mushy romantic bone in her body by that time (3 years on) of our relationship.
When overdone, it's a bore.
Timing is everything, as usual.
The same GQP demanding we move on from January 6th, 2021 is still doing audits of the November 3rd, 2020 election.
