oh that's halarious, i think i'm going to tell them that honestly i think it sounds kinda cute i know one day, when i get to spend a 2nd valentimes with the same person, i'm going to try buying him a flower and see how he reacts? i think it's just cute and the guy will like it (more for the effort than the actual flower itself, but still completely agree, i've had arguments with her about how she shouldn't do that to him potted plants i dun mind, but plastic EWIE she kinda is she came from a very rich family, and so she's all about gimmie gimmie gimmie and she gets jealous that a even richer friend gets this and that all the time and the guy doesn't come from quite a well off family, so he underst ands the concept of the value of a dollar who knows, that was last year's valentimes, and they are still together i agree too i think of flowers as, the person is willing to make the effort to give you something extra special that you can enjoy, even if it's for just a short amount of time, that means they looked past the value of a dollar, and more looked the value of the girl's happiness
Forget about flowers, my bf and I decided we aren't even celebrating V-day... something about how we shouldn't let Hallmark dictate our lives, which I guess is true... Now if the commercialization will stop and I don't see red and pink hearts everywhere, I might not go too crazy.
If a person does not understand and appreciate flowers then don't buy (this principle holds true for all objects of desire). Flowers, when used in the right way, have a particular significant to people and to a place. If a girl does not normally get flowers for herself then she probably does not place any significance of flowers in her life. Then if she still expects flowers to be given by a boy then she wants it for other reason than the appreciation of the flowers. The flower then becomes a token of gesture to signify something else which is not the beauty of itself. Perhaps it is a token of care or thought of a boy towards a girl or vice versa a boy. As to the value of a perishable item versus an enduring item this is no match or reason for logic. Flowers are perishable which they are meant to be. They are transient and wilt gradually but nevertheless are objects of beauty and desire. They are life form which should be appreciated in their vigour and glory. There is no reason why one should substitute them with lifeless silk, china or plastic flowers. For heaven's sake , no, don't just buy the flowers on their own too, get leaves and foliage with the flowers too and you will enjoy them more even it is just for a week. They will decorate your lover's home for a week, which reminds her/him of you, till you meet again in a week's time. If you see each other daily then enjoy them together all the more.
i know eh bbear...and smallrin got it...carve the cheese into a rose..now that is thinking outside the box...
guys should always by flowers for girls. its a tradition. Second, girls should not buy flowers for guys. its a sign that tells the guy that your a loser and a bit feminen. everyone should have heard about that 100 roses or 99 roses, what ever that number was. its a fact that guys give flowers to ladies, not the other way around.
sunufabeetch..... my last post ten hours ago didnt work because it has 2 characters that turns into a smily....... and the second one, i forgot to tag it.... crap. EDIT OF MY PREVIOUS POST: you know what, when i was a little kid, before all this global warming crap, i used to pick up a whole bunch of wild flowers (like the yellow weed or like the purple kind) and gave it to the girl i liked see, its free, and has sentimental values. no need to buy expensive flowers i say roses are over-rated. if i had to buy, id buy a whole bouquet of different kinds of flowers and bright colors.. not a bouquet of red roses... GIRLS OR hmm that gives me an idea... just to get a general idea, lets do a mini poll. girls, which do you prefer? typical and over-rated red roses or colorful and bright bouquet of diversified flowers?
Relative to "small gift" or chocolate, a tiny bouquet of flower has that old-fashion touch that is the secret weapon against many girls. Of course, V-day flower giving is commercialized and overrated nowadays. To me, live roses are overrated (and expensive, no less!), but I adore rose petals, specially the rich red ones. But in general, I like flowers that are rarely sold freshly cut: camilla, orange blossom, orchid (it is a sin to cut it)
oh dude the cheese rose it will have a amazing aroma and it can never go bad since it's already mold HA HA HA anyways, there was this poll than went around my high school when i was younger and they asked, girls would you like to recieve 1 rose, 3 roses, or a dozen roses suprisingly 1 rose got the most votes, second was a dozen i guess i'm a strange one and voted for 3roses the thing is, the girls want a flower becuase it's beautiful and it shows that the person who gave it to you really cares but at the same time, they dont need to whole boquet becuase they understand roses aren't cheap, and there are better ways to spend your money and rather get gifts that will last longer
or save the you cheap n lazy ass the trouble n pick them from your neighbor's yard.. as dann has suggested... pickin' wild flowers n berries n shit for his significant other... -lol
Well personally...i dunt have a huge thing for flowers...but i think some gurls want them its because they a beautiful...beauty of nature.. so thats y they like it...but i dunt think its necessary... Girls buyimg flowers for a guy...hmm..i dunno about that...cuz guyz usually dont have the feeling towards flowers then the gurls...guyz jsut buy them beacuse their girlfrds likes them... __________________
yeah i like receiving flowers once in a while... but only from the guy i like... i got flowers from a guy i didn't like before... it wasn't so much fun holding on to it while walking around...
