  1. Yes, it shows that u care and remember those little details. We also like to be the “pretty girl” sometimes

  2. I was never given flowers and I think a lot of us here have never either. But if I were to be given flowers, I would be confused yet happy? Not everyone has the same response but if I were given a plant instead, I would feel really appreciated

  3. I’ve never received flowers before, but if a loved one ever did, I’d feel… loved?

    Warm gestures always have a way of making my heart feel full. I wouldn’t take it for granted 😊

  4. It really depends on the guy. Some guys like flowers. Some are indifferent. Some hate the idea of getting flowers.

    It’s something you’d need to ask him. We don’t know what he likes and doesn’t like.

  5. If you give me flowers I will throw them in a fire. I cannot think of a more worthless gift. Here these stink wanna watch them die?

  6. If he told you he likes tulips then buy him some. He’d love it. My favorite flowers to receive are white roses and blue hydrangea

  7. I personally hate them. The smell reminds me of funerals and unless the person giving them to me did research on whether or not all the plants are pet-safe, they’re just going to sit outside on my deck for a couple days before getting thrown out.

    But literally every guy is different, plenty of other guys would love receiving them.

  8. I would honestly think it’s so cool. I’d feel special and would think you were special because you not only got me a gift and remembered my favorite flower but did something that said fuck societal norms.

  9. Personally if I received flowers that would be the end of a relationship. But that’s because it would mean you have no idea who I am and you are only thinking of what you like when you got me a “gift”. Six good beers in a bucket of ice however…

  10. If he has space for a pot plant then get him an alive flower.

    Another thing that can be quite cute is a plastic flower that you spray some of your perfume on. But i would suggest giving it to him at his house or car instead of while out at a bar or cinema or what ever it is you do on a date with him

  11. Go for it! Personally speaking, I collect succulents, cactus so if a woman would gift me something like that, I view that action as being very thoughtful and would be very meaningful cause it says she listens, pays attention and knows the little things that are meaningful to me.

  12. If I liked someone well enough to spend 3 days together in a week and they got me something I had talked about as an unexpected gift I’d be really happy with it, whatever it is. It shows that you listened, and that’s most important.

  13. I think you should follow your heart. If your heart says flowers, go for it. I would gladly accept flowers from a lady.

  14. Personally i’d prefer plants over flowers, but if this guy says he loves flowers, go for it.

  15. I’ve given a guy fake flowers. He liked em! Especially cus he didn’t have to water em

  16. “Well, fuck, I don’t have anywhere to put these. And even if I did, I wouldn’t want to watch them slowly die. But it’s a gift, so I can’t just tell her I don’t want them, or it’ll hurt her feelings.”

  17. Question.. why flowers though? I’m not saying he can’t like them but I’m just thinking from an average guys perspective. If anyone bought them flowers… their immediate thought would be..ok what do I do with these now…?

    Something my ex did for me .. we happened to be walking through a shopping mall and a certain scent attracted me. It was a collogne I wear to this day.. I said I loved that smell and she bought it for me as a present.

    Bit of a double edge sword. I love the scent but can never shake the memories that come along with it

  18. Bemused. Now I have to find a vase do other flower stuff to them and eventually dispose of the wretched things. I’ve been given a job to do.

    Chocolates are better.
