I recently started talking to a guy I like, and I want to buy him a small gift (like roses). What would you guys enjoy getting?

  1. i’m just sayin most dudes won’t ever get flowers until their funeral 😂 so even though it’s not common a lot would prolly think it’s kinda cool when you put it in that perspective

  2. get that guy roses! Maybe get him something to put them in too, since most guys never receive flowers. I would love to receive flowers every once in a while, just a little something to know I’m being thought about. I know he will be thinking about you every time he sees them.

  3. I would reserve this for a guy that you are dating but you could

    Get him 5 roses. One made of chocolate because he’s sweet. One real rose for what you have is real. One origami rose because what you have is fragile, crisp, and has endless possibilities. One rose lamp because he lights up your life. One made of silk because you want the relationship to last forever.

  4. Literally, anything if there’s a bit of thought behind it. His favourite beer, chocolate, takeaway, or something related to any of his hobbies? Maybe flowers? Maybe a nice houseplant if he has those?

    For me, it’s not what the gift is, but the thought behind the gift that gives it value.

  5. “Often the first time a man gets flowers is at his funeral.” -some reddit proverb.

    I’d take roses and be flattered. It’s the thought that counts not what it is.

  6. get him flowers. most men don’t receive their first flower until their funeral

  7. The gift itself is secondary to the giving. Figure out what you want to share with him instead of guessing what you think he wants to have.

    Plants or food are safe options suggested in the comments that you can narrow down by making them more personal. The personal aspect outweighs the choice of the gift, two examples:

    1) My ex once bought kahlua and made me a white russian (unanounced) when i was visiting, because two weeks earlier i told her i loved the Big Lebowski. Not my favorite drink, but it definitly was that day, i was stoked about her attention to detail.

    2) My other ex once gave me a room plant (don’t remember name) of the same type as she once got from her deceased grandmother. This held special meaning to her and although the plant itself ment nothing to me, the fact that she wanted to share something personal through a gift, ment alot.

  8. Roses. I have zero interest in flowers. I would love them as a gift. Im sure im not the only one.

  9. Just get men flowers. I’ll tell you a little story:

    Once, while recovering in the hospital in another country where I only had some acquaintances and classmates, I woke up to find small flowers in a paper cup on my table, a sort of wheeled table extending over the bed.

    Anyway, the flowers were nothing fancy, and they were in a simple paper cup, but I was happy to think someone might have cared to send me something, or drop it off. It turns out they were just the occasional donation from a nearby flower shop.

    Just gift flowers. I’ll be nice to get some as a thoughtful gift.

  10. If it is a relatively new relationship don’t get him a remote controlled vibrating butt plug. That really freaked me out once just after a second date.
