If you were a guy and your honey sent you flowers, would you be happy with it?

I sent my Cowboy flowers for Valetine's Day, because I won't get to see him until March. I do have him some gifts, but we are going to wait until March, since we will be going camping in Kentucky. We rented a cabin.

I love flowers, but not because of Valentine's day. I am more into wild flowers vs Roses, although White Roses are one of my favorites. It just seems to brighten up the home, bedroom or even office.

What do you guys think?

Personally i am not a flower loving sort of guy, but i would appreciate the thought.

nov - it's probably a personal thing - and personally, i would love it.
:o)

...and if you write a nice enough message on the card to go with the flowers, i'm sure he'll love it too.

I like hand picked flowers coz I think it shows so much more thought rather than walking into a florist and buying some roses. I don't know about guys and flowers and no one has ever given me flowers =(

Noone?? *shocked* You poor thing. I rather have wild flowers then roses. Roses are expensice and the die to quick.

3 spelling errors in that last sentance nov - you've been on the net too long :p

red: isn't it against the law to pick flowers (unless they're your own)?

Also, multiple exclamation marks or question marks are the sign of a diseased mind ;)

You could say that I had been at work for to long and had no sleep.

Um, I think I'd rather get chocolate than flowers.
And not poncey chocolate either - the worth of chocolate should be measured in gramms per penny, not how they look.

Like the "Um... Thanks Mate" chocolates in Viz.

(Paraphrased) "The only chocolates you can give another man without looking like a pinch of snuff"

i'd rather have shop bought flowers than hand picked because a) id rather not have a sorry handful of daisies, and b) it proves they have enough money to keep me.
Posted by Redmaiden, 22:35, 13th February 2003:
 
I'm not bothered about the law lol but wild flowers ie one not on private property or probably down in your local park. I live near so much countryside I'm just used to lots of wild flowers
Posted by Redmaiden, 22:36, 13th February 2003:
 
I like daisies and who cares about money? :)
