Flowers Birthday: 2009

Saturday, April 11, 2009

For Guys - would you like getting flowers on your birthday?

Would you rather a girl sent it to your workplace, or home?

What kinda arrangement is best? We are not dating or anything. We are good friends, and I really like him.

Your insight would really be helpful to me. Thanks!

For Guys - would you like getting flowers on your birthday?
For a long time i have hoped that one day a woman would give me flowers. It finally happened recently and i was so pleased, and i didn%26#039;t feel any less masculine. i must say i sort of had to drop a hint, but what the hell it worked.
Reply:Gift him a sexy girl for a night out.
Reply:Nope. Best Buy gift card. Flowers aren%26#039;t that big a deal to me. They just seem like a waste of money since they will die in a week anyway. Electronics last forever.

Does the ladies like flowers for a birthday present?

Yes but they die….i prefer a present or something he made himself..

Does the ladies like flowers for a birthday present?
I personally do not like flowers for a present. Flowers are beautiful, but it saddens me when they wilt and die. Instead, find something more personal for a present. Add to a collection that she has. Take her for a special dinner or a picnic. Females love romance. If you are still stuck on giving flowers, also include a box of good chocolate or a piece of jewelry or some other personal item she will enjoy.
Reply:I think flowers are nice but they die so quickly. I would prefer a present.
Reply:yah i like flowers for my bday but i also like presents to. my bday is tomorrow and i will be 21.
Reply:flowers are ok but not for a birthdat present try more like a ring or something
Reply:Yes, I would like flowers for my birthday. It is nice to send them to her at work or at school if you can. It makes a gal feel pretty special to get them when others can share in the joy too. Either way, flowers are romantic and thoughtful gifts.
Reply:give her something that is going to last like a necklace or a pen or something like that and flowers
Reply:depends on the girl... flowers is okay but not that alone... i mean if you will give a gift that must be something she can keep or can be used, something that will remind her of you... something will last...something valuable, but doesn%26#039;t mean expensive...

I bought my Mom flowers on my Birthday and said thank you for giving me my life dont?

you think we owe our folks that?

I bought my Mom flowers on my Birthday and said thank you for giving me my life dont?
definitely. That was a real nice gesture that more people should do.
Reply:Nope, I was told that I was a mistake for most of my life by my mother. If I had a choice, I would have chosen a better mother but I didn%26#039;t get the choice. So no, I will never thank her because I never felt wanted by her so why should I thank her for years of torture?
Reply:sure. I did that for my first husbands mom too. Ladies, if you appreciate your husband, send his mom some flowers on HIS birthday...:)
Reply:Well I honestly do not feel as though I owe my folks anything, Yes they had me, but you know what? 8 months after they did they left me at the neighbors and never came back for me. No they didnt die or anything. They also lied on my birth certificate about their names, I spent 15 years looking for the wrong people. Once I did find my biological family I wish I hadnt. They are nothing like me, they have no morals, I am very grateful for the mom and dad that raised me, to me they are my real paretns and when they were alive, there was nothing I would do for them. So it has nothing to do with whether they gave you life, rather than they gave you A life
Reply:yes
Reply:yup
Reply:well it depends....if you like living then yes....but if not then no
Reply:I used to do that all the time.

Is it ok to send your boyfriend flowers for his birthday?

would a flower arrangement a teddy bear and a gift card be fine as a birthtday gift for a guy or boyfriend?

Is it ok to send your boyfriend flowers for his birthday?
it would be pretty nice cause most guys would not be expecting flowers and a teddy bear thinking that is the presents a guy would get
Reply:Yes, some men find it very romantic - but if you can get him something else that would be better. Send him chocolate covered strawberries and that may be something more he can enjoy than looking at flowers in a vase.
Reply:I mean its the thought that counts but try giving him something more 4rm the heart..Like writing him a poem no matter how bad you maybe @ it he%26#039;ll still *LoVe* it cause he knows you tried and its 4rm the heart...
Reply:not the bear! not the bear!

Guys like flowers, but you need to put them in his hands . . . don%26#039;t send them, deliver them.
Reply:Yeah, but I think he%26#039;d rather get tickets to a baseball game!
Reply:Probably not. Most guys aren%26#039;t into that stuff. Get him a gift card to Home Depot...or pop out of a cake in lingerie
Reply:of course its ok...as long as you know he%26#039;ll appricaite it then im sure he%26#039;ll love it just becasue it came from you
Reply:The majority of men will think it%26#039;s really weird. It would be like him giving you a power drill for your birthday. We men like practical things and are usually turned off or even insulted with such %26#039;romantic%26#039; items!
Reply:umm, well, its a little weird...

guys usually dont like that sort of stuff

but i guess it depends on what kind of guy your dating

Should I send my Ex-fiance a Birthday gift or flowers?

My fiance, whom I dated for more than 4 years broke up with me in June, 5 days before our wedding, I thought we had an AMAZING RELATIONSHIP and would do anything for her. Needless to say I was completely and utterly devastated. She told me she needs to find herself and her individuality, and that she was depressed. I miss her more than words and it is now January, and it is her birthday next week. Should I send a gift, I don%26#039;t know if it%26#039;s the right thing to do, I did go out with her for 4 years. What should I do?

Should I send my Ex-fiance a Birthday gift or flowers?
I completey disagree with all these folks. Sounds like these chicks want you to be a doormat.

Absolutely send flowers... And a gift in an oversized box! Make an incredably big scene of it. Get the ballons too. An oversized card with very lovely writting. Have it delivered to someplace where there will be a lot of %26quot;her%26quot; people. The more people, the better! And, you do not have to spend a lot of money either.

Now here is the important part. Do not take her calls nor talk to her. Do not respond to her text messages. NOTHING!

You are too busy. Make a date and be out on it. Even if your date is with a firehydrant. It is none of her business who you are with.

If she sees you, hurry past her, smile and tell her you are glad she got them... %26quot;But, I am just running so late right now. I will talk to you later...%26quot; But do not.

The more you do not want her, the more she will want you.

You are the guy on the move, upwardly mobile... going places (and here is the important part) without her!

Let me know how it works out.

Good luck.
Reply:PLEASE... Don%26#039;t waste another penny or another moment on her. She has made her choice. I know it is hard. I know you are going to think of her all the time for a while. But everything you do for her will just make things that much harder for you. Don%26#039;t drown yourself in wishful thinking. Let go, my friend.

Peace be with you...
Reply:send her flowers and a cute little card. what%26#039;s the harm? you%26#039;ll probably get a smile out of her at least ;)
Reply:The Wrong Answer Again sounds genious to me!
Reply:Do you still keep in touch with her? If she has severed all contact with you, I would probably recommend NOT sending her anything. If you two are still cordial and keep in touch every now and again, you could mail her a card that simply says %26quot;I hope you have a great birthday!%26quot; If you send her flowers or a gift, it might send her a message that you%26#039;re crowding her again and the last thing you want to do it make it seem like you want to smother her. Good luck!
Reply:No gifts. Let go.

What are some nice flowers to give your grandma for her 95th Birthday?
Call your florist and tell them you want a spring bouquet, its really pretty and cheerful and looks like a garden with all the different varieties, she will love it. Happy bday grandma!
Reply:Send her an arrangement of LILLIES. Or you may want to send her a bouquet of posies. What ever you decide to send to her, I pray that she enjoys many more years to come. May God bless her!
Reply:Somebody must know what her favourite flowers are?At 95 its better to give her something that might bring back memories.Her favourite flowers could be the ones that your Grandpa used to give her,and you giving her those,could bring back happy memories.
Reply:Bright, beautiful wild flowers....including sunflowers...especially since it%26#039;s almost spring. I bet she%26#039;d love that.
Reply:How many more birthdays could she have. Why don%26#039;t you go see her on her birthday with flowers.

Reply:Tulips

Is it OK for my husband to send flowers to his best friend which by the way is a girl for her birthday?

I just found out that my husband has been sending flowers to his best friend for her birthday. I am very upset. He told me that he has been doing it for years. That it does not mean anything. He says that they are best friends. Should I be upset.

Is it OK for my husband to send flowers to his best friend which by the way is a girl for her birthday?
No, you should not.

Why it is just a friendly gesture. I would be fine with it.
Reply:No, it%26#039;s not okay. Especially if your just finding out about it. It%26#039;s okay to have friends , but at the same time he has to respect you. The fact that he remembers to do it every year is cause to be concern. How would he feel if you did the same? Tell him to stop and respect your wishes. A married man should send flowers to you or family member. What ever happened to a card or picking up the phone and just wishing her a happy birthday? Flowers are to personal. What does he give you for your birthday?
Reply:It%26#039;s only wrong if he doesn%26#039;t do the same for you and he is spending money that you don%26#039;t have to do it.

It%26#039;s also wrong if they are flowers associated with romance--that is roses. Wild flowers, seasonal flowers, live plants...all perfectly alright.

also: this isn%26#039;t new behavior, he%26#039;s been doing this for years.

Do call him on it if he doesn%26#039;t get you flowers. He shouldn%26#039;t be treating his best friend better than his wife.
Reply:Marie, I am a married man, and my best friend is a woman. Before we got married I introduced the two best women in my life, and they are friends, too. We exchange gifts on Christmas, and it is great.

Have your husband introduce the two of you. If all is above board between them, it should not be a big deal.

Regards,

Dan

PS I never sent roses, a romantic flower, but potted plants.
Reply:Why are you upset? My best girlfriend%26#039;s boyfriend brought me flowers for Valentine%26#039;s day last year. It was a thoughtful gesture, it didn%26#039;t mean he %26quot;wanted%26quot; me.

Unless you know their relationship is inappropriate, I%26#039;d say you%26#039;ve got a considerate guy. Why be jealous that he treats his friends sweetly...unless he treats them better than you?
Reply:As long as he is not keeping her a secret from you AND MOST OF ALL, you are comfortable with it, then it%26#039;s OK. Your wedding vows said %26quot;forsaking all others%26quot;, so if there is anything your husband is doing that makes you uncomfortable, he needs to cease %26amp; desist.
Reply:YOU need to quit being so jealous or is it the fact that he doesn%26#039;t get YOU flowers that often. They are friends, you need to learn to trust more it will help your marriage. If he wanted to cheat on you do you honestly think he would let you know by buying her flowers for cryin out loud. Jealousy = unhappiness and you are on the fast lane to this.
Reply:Not ok. Does he send you flowers if not there is a big f%26#039;in prob with that if he sending her flowers he better be sending singing f#cking telegrams choc and the works to you and how did you find out. If it aint his mama the b#tch aint getting no flowers...Ya Know
Reply:Hell yeah you should be upset! How would he like it if you were doing it? You should be the ony woman receiving flowers from your man. Let him send her *** a B-day card and if that aint good enough for her then oh well. Let her get her own man!!!
Reply:Okay readers, she says he has been doing it for years.

Your husband should stop once he knows that you do

not like it, and he should have enough respect for you to

not have done it at all.
Reply:I%26#039;d be jealous. I don%26#039;t believe in males and females being friends. There%26#039;s always something more to it. Anyone who thinks otherwise is in denial.
Reply:he didnt know it before. but since he knows it now, that you%26#039;re upset, he should stop.
Reply:if i were you i would be i would watch them very closely and i would tell him how you feel GOD BLESS
Reply:Theres nothing wrong with sending her flowers there friends.

and you should trust him
Reply:as long as he is honest about it and not doing other things it should be ok
Reply:If he were smart, he would stop. Does he do the same for you?

Is it appropriate for my boyfriend to send his ex girlfriend “friendly” flowers on her birthday?

They were together 10 years and have remained good friends (she lives across the country) and she still wants to get back together with him. What message does this send ex girlfriend? And more specifically, what message does sending flowers send?

Is it appropriate for my boyfriend to send his ex girlfriend “friendly” flowers on her birthday?
10 years? Damn sorry hes not over her at all. Cant compete with that.
Reply:Flowers are never friendly... A card is friendly. A phone call - with you in the room - is friendly.
Reply:If they are truly friends (and after such a long relationship, it%26#039;s nice that they are), I do not think it would be inappropriate in that sense to send her flowers...

However, I think it is sort of inconsiderate of him to do so while he is in a committed romantic relationship. (especially if he%26#039;s not getting you flowers that are at least twice as beautiful!)

And if the ex is also in a romantic relationship, I don%26#039;t think her man would be very happy with it at all.

Even if the intent of the flowers is friendly, I think that a gift card to a restaurant or something general like that would be a lot more appropriate, if he insists on giving her a gift.
Reply:Oh dear oh dear.

Sending flowers is a bit much. Shouldn%26#039;t she have someone else doing that? Like er, I dunno, her OWN boyfriend.

Tel your boyfriend off. He REALLY shoudn%26#039;t be doing that. Especially if you know she still wants to get back with him.
Reply:In the category of appropriateness - you probably wrote 60 words and used the word %26quot;send%26quot; four times. It hurts my eyes to read this.

In the category of your boyfriend - there is a clear message that this should SEND to you. Do you get flowers on your birthday? I think he may care a little bit more than sending %26quot;friendly%26quot; flowers...
Reply:He should not be sending her flowers. Not only is it rude to you, it gives her false hope. Tell him if he sends them, you are done with him.
Reply:whoa! that%26#039;s really inappropriate. if i were her, i would feel like he%26#039;s telling me there%26#039;s still hope.
Reply:I would be annoyed if I were in your situation. But if he wants to do it really, just let him.

I have a friend thats a girl, and id like to get her flowers for her birthday. WHat kind of flowers do girls?

what kind of flowers do girls like? and what flowers symobize friendship?

I have a friend thats a girl, and id like to get her flowers for her birthday. WHat kind of flowers do girls?
A yellow rose is for friendship if you want to give her a rose...
Reply:Well, if she is just a friend, don%26#039;t get her roses. Get her some daffodils, daisies, tulips, etc. The color should also be white because that symbolizes friendship. (By all means no red!) Good luck!
Reply:GET HER A MIXED BOUQUET..

THEY ARE COLORFUL, AS WELL AS BEAUTIFUL.

ALWAYS PROPER. YOU CAN%26#039;T MISS.

YOU CAN GET A SMALL, MED OR LARGE BOUQUET WHAT EVER YOUR PRICE RANGE IS TOO. THAT IS ALWAYS A NICE FACTOR.
Reply:I suggest a few yellow roses....they mean friendship. Lilacs are also nice. Nothing red. Red symbolizes romance/love/lust...........and so on.
Reply:Girls do love flowers, that is a thoughtful gift. Your pretty safe with anything except red roses, which symbolize love. I like star gazer lilies, they smell great and are pretty but sometimes make a mess. Carnations are nice in different colors, they last long and are inexpensive. Go to a floral shop and have them put something together with flowers that are in season. You really can%26#039;t go wrong here.

Would it be little weird to give a guy flowers for his birthday?

This guy, he likes me a lot, and i kinda wanted to let him know that i sorta like him too, but i want sure if flowers were too girly?

Would it be little weird to give a guy flowers for his birthday?
Yeh its abit of a toughie, i wouldnt. He probably would love the gesture but would feel uncomfortable carrying them around??? Tell him you%26#039;ll pay to take him out for dinner, movie etc for his birthday, that%26#039;ll let him know you%26#039;re interested.
Reply:Totally...unless he%26#039;s girly ;-)
Reply:yea guys dont like flowers.
Reply:flowers are too girly. What is he going to do with flowers? Bake him a cake or make him cookies.
Reply:um... I wouldn%26#039;t give a guy flowers. You could give him a wallet size picture of yourself, some chocolates and a little teddy bear. I gave that to my husband when we were dating and he loved it.

Do you think its bad to send yourself flowers for your birthday?

Or for any holiday valentines, christmas ect... What comes to your mind when someone sends themselfs flowers and say / act like its from someone else? Just curious.

Do you think its bad to send yourself flowers for your birthday?
If they act like they came from someone else then I don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s to cool. But, just to order flowers and have them sent directly to you is no big deal. I will often buy boquets of flowers for my home-no biggie.
Reply:It%26#039;s a sign of the most incredible loneliness.
Reply:It%26#039;s kind of desperate and lame, really. You don%26#039;t need material things to be happy, whether they are from yourself or others.

Be happy in your own means and find happiness from what you do, not what you have.
Reply:yeah kinda desperate but if it makes yourself feel better then go ahead!
Reply:it means that u are lonely

i received a bunch of flowers from a girl as my birthday present, does it mean she likes me?

I received flowers from a girl on my birthday!?
Girls don%26#039;t give people flowers for no reason. We always think things through carefully. If she gave you flowers, she likes you.
Reply:Of course!
Reply:At least she is courteous.
Reply:Clearly she likes you, but I suspect you mean something more deeply than that. Hard to say, but worth checking out!
Reply:Hmm, girl giving flowers, you really like her too...Invite her out for pizza and a movie or something! The signs are all there!

Just say something like %26quot;Thanks for the flowers, they really surprised me! Say, do you want to go see that new movie *foo* that%26#039;s just come out at *local theater*? We can grab a bite to eat too, if you want.%26quot;

See what happens!
Reply:yeah...pretty much.
Reply:I would say maybe. There%26#039;s no way to really know unless you ask her.
Reply:obviously she wants flower for her next birthday, i present my guy and girls friend with condom, does that meant that im a homo or being straight just to use upon them?

just ask her to find out :)
Reply:I am married and my best friend since childhood always sends me flowers. We are like sisters. To me this is normal. She is married too with two kids.
Reply:50 -50 chance bro. (Also depends upon her cultures)
Reply:Yes, it does....now the next move is up to you.
Reply:Of course she likes you..I think its very sweet of her to do for you,did you send her a thank you?Or at least tell her thank you?Hey you dont have to feel obligated to her for it,just because she gives you flowers doesnt mean you have to do it for her..I know that would be nice,but I doubt thats her motive for giving you some flowers k?
Reply:Yes. It also means SHE likes flowers. (Hint, hint.)
Reply:Yes!!! Ask her out.

People send flowers on birth ,birthday,promotion, anniversary&on demisecant be let them blossm on the tree?

I am thinking flowers should remain as they are and charm the entire world.as longer as they can.

People send flowers on birth ,birthday,promotion, anniversary%26amp;on demisecant be let them blossm on the tree?
Flowers look lovely wherever they are,as blosssoms on a tree,giving cheer in a hospital room or saying love you to someone special.
Reply:Absolutely true! Flowers belong to the nature and beautiful where they are .The flower may symbolize love or affection or relationship but thrown away/or kept in a vase and forgotten after a few minutes. It is only a formality and can be done with a wish ,more so in this present day world of materialistic outlook with wishes or greetings being more for head count by superiors and respect with a motive or grudging -inside-smiling -outside gesture or but a step towards %26#039;love%26#039; or whatever that may mean to different people!

Why do people continue to get me flowers for my birthday when I keep telling them I hate getting flowers?

WHY DO PEOPLE GIVE FLOWERS WHEN THEY REPRESENT NOTHING BUT DECAY?

Flowers are a nice gesture but flowers are VERY EXPENSIVE when ordered from a florist %26amp; delivered… They don’t last long… I have more vases then I know what to do with%26amp; end up giving them to GoodWill to join their collection of cheap “free” vases that come with flowers…

I find it depressing how the flowers are meant as a good thing but then they, like everything else, begins to decay, %26amp; end up rotten %26amp; in the trash… Last year on my b-day I got THREE DELIVERIES OF FLOWERS! I had no where to put them all %26amp; had to give them away to neighbors!

This year I only got 1 (thank god) but it doesn’t even have anything I can dry to use in an arrangement. They are all just ‘throw-out’ flowers. VERY EXPENSIVE ‘throw-out’ flowers

I would MUCH rather have some kind of plant that I can care for %26amp; keep for more then a week!

Why do people continue to get me flowers for my birthday when I keep telling them I hate getting flowers?
I am definitely laughing right now! Not at you, but with you. Every year I get clothes from people, and every year nothing fits. I tell them please don%26#039;t buy me clothes, nothing EVER fits. But what do you think happens-you got it-CLOTHES! The only difference between me and you is my cat doesn%26#039;t eat my clothes.
Reply:People do that too me too...I hate it. What the hell can I do with flowers. How about a grocery certificate so I can gorge my depressing self in ice cream. People are just too lazy to be personal anymore.
Reply:You%26#039;ve gone really into this %26amp; perhaps they can%26#039;t be bothered to be so deep!
Reply:I feel the same way. Flowers are expensive and they die quickly. I feel they%26#039;re a waste of money. I%26#039;d rather have a plant or a gift certificate.
Reply:Are you telling them collectively, as a group, or individually? As a group, they may not be listening. Tell each one, and tell them the options. Cash or gift certificates. If they cooperate, send them a thank you note. If they send flowers anyway, give them away, and let them know you did. Tell them you%26#039;d rather have NOTHING than flowers, thank you very much.
Reply:Why? Because they want someone to send THEM flowers! They don%26#039;t listen to you either. Make a %26quot;wish list/gift list%26quot; and email to everyone. Have things on it that are in many different price ranges. Tell everyone that you just found out your are allergic to flowers and can%26#039;t have any in your house so you wanted to help everyone with gift ideas! Okay, I know that is a big fib, but you need to take drastic steps! Make sure you have lots of ideas on the list and put in there that, when in doubt, you LOVE gift cards to your fav stores. Hopefully, you will get some different gifts next year!
Reply:no theyre not listening, but you cant tell people what to give you unless they ASK, try to enjoy the flowers.

Aww, sounds like you%26#039;ve put a bit of thought into it. Lily%26#039;s sounds sweet. White with a few pink orchids to contrast could be quite striking. Go with your gut, you know her best. I%26#039;m sure she%26#039;ll be quite touched no matter what you choose! Good Luck!

What do you use to attach icing flowers and accessories to a birthday cake with?

I want to try and have a go to decorate my 4 year old daughters cake for her Birthday. I just don%26#039;t know how to get the flowers, ribbons etc to stick.

Any information or advice would be really appreciated.

What do you use to attach icing flowers and accessories to a birthday cake with?
I decorated a cake recently and went through a few different methods before finding one that worked well!

The way that I found works best it to get some of that %26quot;Writing Icing%26quot; stuff.. it%26#039;s basically just a tube of icing with a nozzle on the end.. you can buy it in most supermarkets and it comes in loads of different colours.. squeeze a little drop onto the back of whatever it is you want to stick on the cake and hey presto! You can then replace the cap, stick it back in the cupboard and save it for next time.. also, it tastes really yummy too! :o) Have fun! and happy birthday to your daughter!
Reply:A bit of icing sugar mixed with water usually does the trick. or royal icing (some supermarkets stock icing sugar ready for royal icing - just add water, but just to atatch prob not worth the bother). otherwise you can buy sugar glue, but you might have to go to specialist cake shops for that, but check your supermarket. ribbon - if its a ribbon around the cake then use a dab or two of the icing - i usually stick a thin pin through te ribbon into the cake - sterilise in boiling water first. if you are not keen on pins around kiddies, you can just remove immeidately after the cake has been cut, or if you use a couple of dabs of icing sugar and water mix to hold it, and use the pin to secure the whole lot, by the time the icing has dried you can just remove the pin. it should stick in place.

Also, what is your cake covered with - if its just buttercream/soft icing then just push your decs on, if its firm icing you%26#039;ll need the icing sugar and water or sugar glue method.

Reply:Use a little icing, just a small blob will do it. Keep a little back from when you ice the cake, or make up a little amount when needed. I used to do this to anchor Christmas cake decorations too.
Reply:icing
Reply:ICING...
Reply:You are icing the cake with buttercream icing, right? Just stick any pre-made stuff to it. If you are trying to pipe the flowers and stuff, just pipe them onto the cake.

Be sure to pipe the flowers sample style first on waxed paper. Pick them up with the tip of paring knife and lay them where you want them on the cake.

Much easier to do than tell how!!
Reply:I always use a very small squeeze of the icing you get in a tube. Put it on the back of the flower or ribbon with a cocktail stick or something similar. I usually use that icing for decorating and writing although I put it into my own icing back and use my nozzles. The ones that come with the tube are too thick. You could also use some icing sugar and water but it is harder to get the right consistancy
Reply:royal icing or whatever the decorations are made of, i.e.edible icing
Reply:You use some mixed icing to attach them. Very easy. Have you a cake and card shop near you? The people in there are usually very helpful for novices. Good luck.

Reply:I%26#039;m sure you use icing sugar.
Reply:a bit of icing or water, I think.
Reply:You usually use a bit of icing, but water it down just a little so its a bit gooey. If your putting ready made decorations on, you can just brush the surface of the cake and the underside of the decoration with a bit of water.
Reply:When ever I make cakes for friends and families birthdays I use a bit of homemade frosting to attach flowers. You put a dab on the cake and then stick the flower/ribbon on.
Reply:just use ordinary icing sugar make sure you have some left over.

hope this is useful.
Reply:You attach icing flowers with frosting on the back. The rest do the same.

My Girlfriend broke up with me in June after dating for over 4 years.

We tried to stay friends during the summer but she got EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE. We haven%26#039;t spoken since September, I miss her more than anything everyday, and love her so much. Next week is her 27th birthday, should I send flowers or just forget about it? Mutual friends of ours tell me that she asks about me a lot

Please Read!! Should I send flowers for Ex-Girlfriend%26#039;s Birthday?
There is no reason why you can’t send her flowers but be clear in your own mind about what message you are sending with them, and no I don’t mean hand written on a card !

You miss her but does she miss you?

Asking about someone and wanting to be with them again are two different things.

Send them with an open mind and no great expectations.
Reply:just send flowers nothing else that could creep her out in away. cause you both haven%26#039;t talk to each other . or on the other hand it could respark her interest in you to know that after all that time you still care
Reply:u shud becuz she is the grl u love alot..........i know she will be happy to recieve flowers frm u and it will let he know that u remembered and that u cared.............wen u love somone dearly u shud be willin to do anythn for em

no
Reply:I say send her flowers but with a hand written note just saying happy birthday. Keep it simple.

Sorry to hear what happened. Hope you feel better.

But one word of advice. Don%26#039;t expect much back. Expect nothing back from her. It might be hard for her to get the flowers from you and she wouldn%26#039;t know what to do.
Reply:No.

She wants you to leave her alone.

Respect that.
Reply:YES! But don%26#039;t send a mooshy card. Just say words that a friend would say.
Reply:To tell you the truth I am torn between yes and no. I would say No just leave her be. But then again maybe she would like to know that you are thinking of her.
Reply:I think you should, just to let her know that you care, and are thinking about her...but like everyone else said, keep it simple.
Reply:Send her flowers....... cause she will sence you are still thinking about her!!!! Good Luck

Has any one had trouble with sending flowers, my mothers birthday flowers went to the wrong address.?

i had trouble when ordering flowers from a shop they showed me a beautiful basket that they would put the flowers in i paid abit of money and when they arrived it was not same basket was quite small and the shop just blamed mothers day for prices my mum still loved the flowers but i never told her the shop had made a mistake .the shop didnt offer anything i just said id never use them again

Has any one had trouble with sending flowers, my mothers birthday flowers went to the wrong address.?
Sorry. I work with morons.
Reply:I hope you yelled at the florist. I have heard of instances where people call directory assistance for a phone number and when they give the town name the operator says it does not exist; meanwhile the person calling for information lives in that very town.

This is all part of the same problem of illiterate, unskilled illegals being hired by businesses for almost no pay. the dumbing down of the workforce will get worse as more and more illegals flood the job market and take jobs at a fraction of the price of more qualified legal citizens.

I bet the florist had hired some illegal for $25 a day to take the delivery info and that person put it down all wrong. I would complain and threated to turn them in to ICE.

GIRLS, ok if GUY friend gives you FLOWERS for your birthday?

sweet or awkward? if guy actually has crush but girl doesn%26#039;t know; flower given among other things like shirt, cake; would you think the guy likes you? in general, what%26#039;d you like for your birthday from a guy friend, supposedly platonic?

GIRLS, ok if GUY friend gives you FLOWERS for your birthday?
in my opinion, it is sweet, meaning he is truly your friend who wants you to be happy and enjoy your birthday.

but it depends on what kind of flower it is. if he gives you something of your favorite kind, that%26#039;s fine, but if he gives you roses and with those meaning attach to it, like single or three red rose, that means he loves you. so better watch out.

when my best friend remember that my favorite flower is daisy, he gave me that while we are on vacation, and i still cherish the thoughts up to this day. he usually give me cd, shirts, books, dvd movies, hair accessories and the most memorable is our friendship ring. what a guy and i love him dearly...
Reply:If I got flowers from a guy for my birthday, I%26#039;d definitely think they had a crush on me. From a friend with whom the relationship is strictly platonic, I%26#039;d want something like a CD, or a gift card, or something lame and silly. (Think dollar store: Play-doh, straw spoons, bubble kits) But, I%26#039;m a 16 year old girl- I don%26#039;t know the ages or particulars of your situation.
Reply:FLOWERS are a good option as a bday gift . flowers are given practically for all occassions.
Reply:I think it IS possible that he means it in a friendly way, but not likely. Guys tend not to be that way toward someone they think of as a friend. It also depends on what kind of flowers too.
Reply:I would think that the guys likes me... can%26#039;t really say what I would want from the guy though.. hmmm... moneY? hahaha.. so there will be no dead weight loss!
Reply:They%26#039;re fine. Just be sure to ask the florist for a small, simple vase of flowers that in no way sends the message of romantic intentions. Maybe in the Get Well Soon or Best Wishes aisle.
Reply:I don%26#039;t like stuff for my birthday.. hugs and smiles are the best

if any dude gave me flowers for my birthday, I would only think of it as him being kind
Reply:If he gives you flowers, he DOES like you. Once you get the flowers, you know (regardless of what he says).
Reply:i would love flowers. haha. appreciate them.
Reply:If I got flowers for my birthday from a guy friend(which I have) I would think of it as a very sweet ,thoughtful present.If he likes you more then a friend you would just know. Flowers(and diamonds) lol are a girls best friend after all.

Ive known this guy for a while and we just became a little more friendly, i was wondering if it was a good idea to send him flowers on his birthday...he is the type that seems like he would really appreciate it, and i am sending something manly looking, a nice neutral vase and orchids or something. is that a good idea?

If he%26#039;s in to golf or sports get him a small gift.

I am looking for a way to put real flowers on a birthday cake.?

I am making a garden cake (two tiered) for a birthday. I was wonder how to put the real flowers in and what I need to put around them.

What i would do is go to your local bakery and ask the cake decorator..they should know about edible flowers ,and how to clean them properly and keep them fresh looking,possible a florist would know this also.
Reply:Make sure you use organic flowers. They%26#039;ll be safe to eat, because they%26#039;re grown without pesticides.
Reply:if you use edible or non-toxic flowers that are preferrably organic (but not necaessary if you wash them) you will be fine just putting them on the cake directly...but don%26#039;t put them on the cake until just before you serve it or at least an hour or two before b/c they can start to wilt....also a good idea to keep the cake refrigerated with the flowers on it until you display or serve it...look online for a list of nontoxic flowers..good luck!
Reply:If the flowers are edible you can just put them directly on the cake. The link below gives a good long list of edible flowers. If there%26#039;s frosting on the cake, that will hold them in place.
Reply:Try looking in a health food store such as Whole Foods, they have different varieties of edible flowers.
Reply:Just place them on but place them in the refridgerator the day before leave enough stem for them to go down into the cake
Reply:First...use an edible flower..like marigolds...others are poisonous

Second...I would just go ahead and clean them and then put them on in a decorative way, just the tops though

Is it okay for a man to give his ex-wife flowers for his birthday?

A friend of mines long term boy friend recently sent his ex-wife flowers for her birthday. She thinks that sending flowers is a romantic gesture. He explained that they were just a spring arrangement, not roses and that he sent them to be nice. He re assured her that she had nothing to worry about. My friend felt a bit hurt because her boyfriend had not sent her flowers for 4 years and then sent some to his ex. Is she over reacting or does she have a valid reason to be upset? I told her I%26#039;d get some opinions.

Is it okay for a man to give his ex-wife flowers for his birthday?
If I was your friend I would be pissed too only because he hadn%26#039;t sent me flowers in 4 years, but he sends her flowers? Oh no! That would NOT be cool with me. For any reason in the world, it would NOT be cool.

If him and his ex have children together, that MIGHT be a reason to send her flowers. To keep some sort of friendship relationship is important when you have kids. If they don%26#039;t have kids, I don%26#039;t care how good of friends you are, you really do not have a reason to send flowers. A card, ok. A gift card to a store, ok. But I think flowers are a romantic gesture when coming from a man to a woman.

If I were your friend, I would get to the bottom of this. It sounds like maybe his feelings are getting involved with this woman again.

I do not know the whole situation. I am only saying this based on what you said.

I could be wrong. Wouldn%26#039;t be the first time. But all I know is, when your gut tells you something isn%26#039;t right, it usually isn%26#039;t.
Reply:not wrong but inappropriate
Reply:She has a valid reason to be upset. How did your friend find out he sent flowers? Did he tell her or did she somehow have to find out on her own?

I think flowers are a great way to let someone know you%26#039;re thinking of them--but why is he thinking of his ex and not his current? On the other hand, some guys are just clueless.
Reply:tell her to call joey greco and cheaters
Reply:Absolutely. Most chicks would see getting flowers that way. Even if he doesn%26#039;t, his ex wife probably will. Not at all a good message to be sending. Then again, alot of guys only buy flowers when they have done something wrong. Perhaps her having not received any for 4 years is a good sign (or maybe Im just reaching???)
Reply:I see nothing wrong in him sending his ex-wife the %26quot;spring bouquet%26quot; (not romantic) flowers. I think so many people forget that ex%26#039;s have a history, and just because you are no longer together, that history doesn%26#039;t dissolve. I would much rather break up and be on good terms with my ex than go through life hating him. Jealousy, on the other hand, which sounds as though what your friend has, is a big poison to a relationship. If your friend cannot accept her boyfriend%26#039;s explanation about the flowers, how is she going to accept all of the other day-in and day-out problems/circumstances that come with all relationships? I say she needs to grow up, get a bit more self-confidence and chill out a bit. He is still with her, right? I see a generous, caring man there, and I bet that is what attracted her to him in the first place.
Reply:my ex still sends me flowers and gifts ..but they are %26quot;from the kids%26quot; so in my opinion thats the only way or reason he should do it
Reply:Kick the dumb kid out! If he%26#039;s not smart enough to realize that the one he%26#039;s with deserves more attention than the one he had, he%26#039;s not worth keeping!
Reply:She has a valid reason to be upset
Reply:No its ok, its good they keep good relations, for the kids sake
Reply:Some people thinks it rong n sum dont but if it woz my bf id bee wurid that he has feelings 4 her still !!!
Reply:If he%26#039;s dating your friend for four years and never given her flowers, it means that he doesn%26#039;t consider flowers a romantic gift for someone he loves. Thus sending flowers to his ex-wife makes perfect sense: he neither loves her nor considers it romantic, so it%26#039;s an easy, lame gift in his mind.

I understand why your friend may be upset; women tend to associate flowers with romance. But in this guy%26#039;s case, I don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s a big deal at all.

Birthday Flowers for a Friend!? What should I get her?

So my friend%26#039;s birthday is 1 month from today. We%26#039;re close but not extremely close, and we%26#039;re coworkers. We%26#039;re both single, and claim we%26#039;re happy being single, but that chemistry I think is starting to show between us. She%26#039;s been very good to me, and has helped me get over my shyness around others.

I thought it would be fun to buy her a beautiful spring bouquet with a giant balloon that says Happy B-Day and sneak it in on her desk when she%26#039;s gone. Roses are great, but I feel like that would be too much. Lots of other nice gifts, she loves John Deere stuff, and I found the cutest John Deere bear. I just don%26#039;t want to do too much and creep her out. I want just a sweet gesture to remember her B-Day. I do like her, she knows it, is okay with it, and I feel like she likes me back.

What do you think?

By the way, we have dated a couple times, and going out for her b-day is out of the question.

Birthday Flowers for a Friend!? What should I get her?
Roses are awesome, but sending her too many can send the wrong message. Also consider the color of the flowers. Red roses are usually from a boyfriend, husband, or fiance. If you want to send her roses, go with 3 roses (anymore, and you could be saying you love her), either in light pink, yellow, or orange. Gerber daisies are also really pretty and come in fun colors. I think a small John Deere bear added to the bouquet would give it a personal touch.
Reply:I like the John Deere bear idea....it%26#039;s cute, but not too much. Flowers mean %26#039;relationship%26#039;...save those for next year, when you%26#039;ll probably have one with her! (Because of the bear!) :)

What does it mean if my ex-boyfriend send me flowers on my birthday and signs the card with?

what does it mean if my ex-boyfriend send me flowers on my birthday and signs the card with %26quot;love%26quot; and then his name? there is soooooooooooooooooo much more to the story than this. short version.....we just had a baby together, his mother (i think, but am pretty positive) wants him all to herself b/c he pays her bills, he has not seen the baby in over a month, he%26#039;s admitted to being a momma%26#039;s boy, ask me to marry him now has changed his mind and a lot of other things. anyways...why in the world would he send me flowers on my birthday? the arrangement even came with a teddy bear and hershey kisses!!! i%26#039;m so confused. i love him and care about him deeply, but have just gotten used to the idea of not being with him. i filed for child support too. i just know that if we were ever to get back together he would have to move out of his mother%26#039;s house (it%26#039;s actually his house). he has acted like he does not care, but sending me flowers? and remembering my birthday? i need some advice.

It%26#039;s very selfish of her to be robbing him of his young life and family, just to fulfill her needs. She should get a job or apply for assistance and manage on her own. Keep the lines of communication open...but make sure that he understands you don%26#039;t want to live with his mother, nor should you be expected to.
Reply:if he cant make up his mind, then i would say to move on. he knows that your there and will fall right back in with him when he wants you to. dont let that fool you. you can get a more mature man that doesnt have to depend on his mamma and will love you today, tomorrow, and the next day without changing his mind.
Reply:I think u might be reading more into it because of your feelings.
Reply:Don%26#039;t read too much into this ... he did a nice thing by sending you flowers for your birthday...he didn%26#039;t say he wanted to spend the rest of his life with you. Say thank you for the flowers, let him visit his child, and get on with your life.
Reply:Lots of guys send flowers and chocolate as random acts of kindness.They think that%26#039;s what they should do.. This could be just part of his personality. Don%26#039;t get too worried and look for other signs. If he moves out of her house and then asks you again well..... ps be glad . My husband always said I was going to get you flowers...3 babies later... I think he forgot how to go to the corner store...HA
Reply:Teddy bear AND hershey kisses? That%26#039;s serious.

OK, actually it%26#039;s not. He%26#039;s either on the fence about you or he%26#039;s toying with you (or both). If he really loved you neither his mom nor anything else would stand in his way.

The baby makes it tempting but I have no reservation in urging you to stay FAR AWAY from this loser. Yuck. Yuck. Yuck.
Reply:he probably has affection for you seeing as you are the mother of his child.. you wanna know the ultimjate way to find out what people are really thinking? ask them !

but anyhoo that was really nice of him to send you all that... i reckon you should look into it.

goodluck
Reply:Well I dont know your age group and all, I%26#039;d just say treat him like you would any guy your just getting to know...Take your time, let him PROOVE a lot to you so as you wont get all major disappointed, Besides if your somewhat of a challenge for him now emotionally...GOOD.. stay involved in other peoples lives, friends, and all so he not take you for granted, If he wants YOU bad enough, the cord to mama should be cut by him himself, The other women is NOT always a sex partner!! been there a time or two, Goodluck and Godbless your Baby 2 !!
Reply:I don%26#039;t know his age but the house is his and he made a kid so he needs to be responsible to you and the kid....

I would go to court and get the baby his name and get child support......

then tell him he made the decision to make this baby now he needs to make another decision and tell his mother what he has done and he wants to take care of you....for goodness sakes.....

If he won%26#039;t do this, get the child support and move on with your life.and make sure he pays the child support....that is what the child support office is for........don%26#039;t hang around him anymore....don%26#039;t speak to him or anything until he decides to take care of you and the baby and that is if you have not found someone who will.
Reply:If you stay with him you will always have the same problem it will only get worse and you will have a lot of issues with the mom, I%26#039;m in the same situation we have two kids and I have been dealing with this for 8 years only b/c I loved him but I can%26#039;t be in a relationship when the mommy is running the show and now I%26#039;ve had enough I had to let him go back to his mommy. I f he can prove himself to be a man your man then give it a go we all want to be with our kids father.
Reply:Love is not given without truth behind it. There%26#039;s always something in the way... I know its easy to personify it with his mother but see the big picture. If you can pay all your kid%26#039;s own bills then that would help. If you can file for child support then that means homeboy makes a living. If he is busy spending over $150 or so to give you a b-day present that doesn%26#039;t last he is not that great with money. Mother should live where she is allowed but know her role. If you are good for his situation then ok. If you are not then you should be working on improving yourself. Nobody wants someone who decreases who they are. Live in harmony and benefit each other.
Reply:if hes ready to man up and get from under his mother i say be with him if not stay with that feeling of yall not being together good luck congrats on your baby
Reply:Chill out, don%26#039;t freak! Guys are plain and simple!!! You should not be mad!
Reply:That is a guy game. They want you, but with their terms. Set your own terms and stick to them. Tell him that you appreciate the card and flowers, but that does not change anything. It is your way or no way. If you don%26#039;t lay the law down, he will let his mother run over you the entire relationship. This is not a problem unique to him. Some guys just think that you will give in because you love them. They may love you too, but sometimes love is just not enough. There is a commitment factor. Obviously he has not made the commitment of taking care of this child, because he has not seen the child in over a month!! If he can%26#039;t make a commitment to his child, what makes you think that he can make one to you?? Do not settle. Go for what you and your child need in life. He sounds like a loser.

Is it ok to send flowers to my boyfriend at work for his birthday?

We have been dating for 4 yrs and he%26#039;s got me flowers twice in that time. He is not a real sensitive guy but I thought it would be a good gesture to send him some flowers on his birthday at work so he realises how it feels. I%26#039;m only concerned if he does not feel more embaressed than happy about it.

He works in a small office and is in finance. Everyone there is pretty much suit and tie. Nobody has received flowers at his office so far. I just want to get some advise from other folks because I don%26#039;t want him to become uncomfortable with the fact that I sent him flowers.

Is it ok to send flowers to my boyfriend at work for his birthday?
Some guys like it but I really don%26#039;t think I would. He will most likely get teased because that%26#039;s just what guys do. I mentioned sending my hubby flowers one time and he said that I BETTER NOT! It was funny. Big macho guys can%26#039;t be getting flowers at work! Haha
Reply:I sent a boyfriend of mine flowers for once at work, but I asked for tiger lilies to be sent, and not roses or anything pink or too pretty. (Some of the more architectural flowers would have been OK too). I also advised the florist carefully as I didn%26#039;t want twee bows and ribbons all over it either.

Despite him being a lawyer, and working in a really small office with all males except for the receptionist, once he%26#039;d got over the initial embarassment, he got quite a bit of respect for it - as did I from his fellow colleagues.

If your boyfriend is a confident guy and settled in at work, you should be OK, but I guess you always take a risk that he will take offence ( %26amp; he%26#039;d be daft if he did). However, if he is a sensitive guy, he will probably really enjoy the gesture and appreciate the effort you went to. Good luck with it and I hope he loves receiving them!

Guys - how do you feel if someone sends you flowers on your birthday?

I%26#039;ve been arguing with my mom on this one for a long time now, but I have an aunt that moved away. When she was closer she would usually bake a special cake on my birthday or my sisters. But since she moved away she sends flowers as well as a card and a gift; the flowers usually arrive by a florist on the day. The first time this happened I felt really embarrassed about it and didn%26#039;t like it. My mom thought it was nice and send it is a custom and not a big deal. Then it happened again last year and some guy friends saw them - none of them have ever had flowers for their birthday before although one had a cousin that had - we were able to laugh it off to a nutty aunt, but it was still awkward. Now with my b%26#039;day coming up again I already know that flowers will be coming this year. I%26#039;ve said to my mom that I wish she%26#039;d say to not bother or use the money for something else or save it, but my mom%26#039;s mad at me and told me to thank her when they come

I can%26#039;t be the only guy who feels this way

Guys - how do you feel if someone sends you flowers on your birthday?
I understand it%26#039;s a little unusual for men, but I doubt anyone will think less of you at all truly for merely recieving flowers from a family member. I am surprised your mother doesn%26#039;t understand how you%26#039;re feeling though, I%26#039;ve recieved embarressing gifts before but my parents were always understanding and they felt less guilt than me when disposing of them. Your birthday is supposed to be an enjoyable time for you, and the last thing she should be worrying about is etiquette on your behalf. I think it would be quite easy for her to discretely hint your aunt to not send them, she might not succeed, but I%26#039;m surprised she will not even attempt to remedy the situation. But as i said, don%26#039;t worry about it, it%26#039;s likely no one will even see them, make sure your mates aren%26#039;t around when they%26#039;re getting delievered if you can and put them in a room where your friends won%26#039;t go when they come round? I%26#039;m sure may guys your age feel the same way, but when you get older I think most realise that they%26#039;re just a nice gesture. Hope you have a good birthday!
Reply:My sister always sends me flowers for my birthday. I thought it was peculiar at first. I was living in a dorm and got a lot of comments, for sure. But now I understand it as a representation of her love and I even look forward to getting them. Be happy that someone cares enough to send you flowers. And maybe send HER flowers on HER birthday. I bet she%26#039;d love it.
Reply:It%26#039;s not my thing. Personally I think buying dead plants is a waste of time. If they got me something that was still in roots then maybe. I will buy flowers for a girl if I know that she likes it. I think the whole idea is to make the other person happy on their birthday, not yourself.

I wouldn%26#039;t complain about your aunt though. She cares for you. That%26#039;s a good thing.
Reply:well my brother got flowers from his gir freind and he said well atleast she thouht of me and i gave my boyfreind flowers and her sister said he waters them every day so dont worry it is sooo normal i mean you should like them its alright and also u can pass it on to a girl u like or ur girlfreind and girls love it when a guy brings them flowers!

hope i helped!
Reply:I think they are a waste of money, but it seems that your Mom likes to have your flowers around the house. When you get your own place, you can tell your aunt you%26#039;d rather have socks or underwear. LOL
Reply:I do think it%26#039;s a little odd, but it%26#039;s nothing compared to being a total ingrate. Grow up.
Reply:No, I%26#039;d be embarrassed to get flowers as a gift too. Maybe talk to your aunt about it.
Reply:Your an immature little thing aren%26#039;t you? They%26#039;re just flowers. Get over it.
Reply:I%26#039;d rather get something useful. Flowers just die in a few days.
Reply:You are not the only guy. I have felt like this before. the truth is..... I LOVE FLOWERS!
Reply:Give them to your mom.
Reply:Excited, because now I have a %26#039;get out of jail free%26#039; card that I didn%26#039;t have to buy with my own money!
Reply:LOL... run... run from the flowers before they turn you into a girl!!! Ha ha.... Seriously, I agree with gadgitgirlmbl they%26#039;re just flowers which is a sign of love and feelings for you. It%26#039;s a nice thing that your aunt is showing you in a way that she can while being away from you. Don%26#039;t be so nasty about it. If you%26#039;re that embarrassed then hide them like Double X said from your guy friends, but say thanks to your aunt and show her some respect too.

When he receives flowers for his birthday, should he call the other day to say "thanx it was nice"?

He never calls to say thank you whenever I send him a present of flowers for his birthday.

My friends tell me he cares for me (I believe that too) but he is just impolite. He does not think it is necessary to say thank you.

What do you think?

Is it or isn%26#039;t it necessary to call back?

When he receives flowers for his birthday, should he call the other day to say %26quot;thanx it was nice%26quot;?
I think he just doesn%26#039;t know any better. If you really love him, you%26#039;ll find subtle yet effective ways the proper way of doing things.

Say, for example,. he receives a gift from an Aunt. That%26#039;s a great opportunity to suggest to him that he write a thank-you note or at least call her. If he resists, you can take THAT opportunity to tell him that it%26#039;s only proper courtesy that he acknowledge a gift. And leave the fact that you gave him flowers out of it - for now. If he starts thanking everybody BUT you, then it%26#039;s time to address that problem.

Stop fishing for thank-yous for your gifts. It%26#039;s selfish and it diminishes the generosity of your gift. Like I said, it you want to change this behavior, remove yourself from the equation.
Reply:sounds to me like he knows he%26#039;s got you rapped and is taking advantage of that.He should call and say thank you for any nice thing you do for him.Some guys just don%26#039;t have a clue though.
Reply:if he was any kind of self respecting man he would call and say thanks
Reply:He should, at the least, let you know he got them. You could say to him, %26quot;Did you get the (item) I sent you? I want to be sure the XYZ store got it out.%26quot; It may eventually hit him that this is the nice thing to do, even if he can%26#039;t spit out the words thank you. Good luck.
Reply:You%26#039;re sending flowers.....to a dude?

He should thank you for gifts, in this age of cell phones on the day of, But to be honest, I would be weirded out by getting flowers, and I%26#039;d be worried thanking you for them would encourage it to happen again.
Reply:Of course it is necessary to call back to say thanks.
Reply:He should tell you %26quot;thank you%26quot;. Maybe you should sit down with him and find out exactly how he feels about you. Tell him that it hurts your feelings and that it makes you feel unappreciated. If he shrugs it off, then move on, he is not the one for you.

Most guys (men) are self absorbed and clueless. Talk to him first, make your decision from there.

Good luck!
Reply:People want to receive a thank you after putting their thought, time and MONEY into something. Not being able to pick up the phone to just say %26quot;I appreciate your present%26quot; is just not acceptable.

Stop sending him things if he can%26#039;t thank you.

Does he send you things?
Reply:If you have said something to him regarding the issue and he still REFUSES to say thank you, your options are to stop sending him gifts or accept that this is how he is.

Are flowers a good birthday present?

I made a topic about a girl i really like (but am not in a r/ship with yet) so click on my profile is you need more more backstory about that.

It%26#039;s just that a friend of mine suggested flowers as a present for her birthday? What do you think, and also, how do you think i could give them to her (we both go to school by the way)?

Are flowers a good birthday present?
PART of a good present. It makes a nice lead-in to the Big Gift
Reply:As a girl, I always love to get flowers. It might be weird at school though - maybe at the end of the day? And don%26#039;t go too overboard, pretty but simple. Good luck.
Reply:I haven%26#039;t met a girl yet who doesn%26#039;t like flowers. I, personally love carnations. They%26#039;re reasonably priced and they last a lot longer than those high priced flowers. Ask your friend to ask this girl what her favorite color is, and add that color flower to the carnations. Also tie them with ribbon in her favorite color. Best of Luck!
Reply:flowers are pretty nice presents for someone you like.... it really will make her feel so feminine and it will boost her self-esteem... but 1 thing about giving flowers is that you are not sure if what kind of flower she likes or if she has allergies to that particular flower... also, flowers don%26#039;t last long... so as to be safe, i suggest you give her something that will last long and those that she could actually use for future needs..... =)
Reply:Part of a gift , not the whole thing. Buy her some earrings to go with them , nothing expensive , girls like multiple gifts :))
Reply:Flowers would be nice but I think you should put some effort into something she really likes. Getting flowers from you might be too much, unless she wants that next move.
Reply:Girls love flowers!!! You could have them delivered to her house.
Reply:flowers r a good present. especially if they%26#039;re r roses or her favorite. but she may find u creepy if ur not bf/gf yet. unless she knows u like her, or the flowers could get her to go out with u. idk...it%26#039;s ur decision.
Reply:First you must find out if she likes flowers or not. If yes, you can give her flowers. If not, give the other present.

If I were that girl, I like what you really want to give me.
Reply:Yes, for your grandmother.
Reply:i dont know how old you are, but i always believe that flowers are a present for someone we dont know well, or a last time present. I think it would be better if you bought her a necklace or something like it. Not something expensive, but just to show her that you didnt just get her something without thinking her taste. A CD of her favourite band would be a great idea, or maybe a poster. Generally, without overdoing it, focus on getting her something that she had showed you she likes. That will count!
Reply:Flowers will win her heart, but you should make sure that she does not have any allergies to them (that would not be good, but if she does... have them wrapped in a plastic film).
Reply:YUP!! DO IT. I did it and she loved it. I got her 24 roses, and some balloons. What else can you get a girl thats really nice lol. You cant buy her cloths or makeup HAHAA so get her flowers, some balloons and maybe some chochalate in a nice box.
Reply:All girls love two things, flowers and jewelry. You can%26#039;t ever go wrong with those two things. Since she%26#039;s not a long time g/f stay away from red roses, those are too forward. Go with something that is summery with lots of color. Most flower shops can help you pick something out that is in your price range and doesn%26#039;t look like it%26#039;s for your grandma. Good Luck
Reply:Very great idea. most ladies like flowers but i think you should add a nice birthday card as well.
Reply:Don%26#039;t send her roses or carnations... Those are wedding and funeral flowers!

Instead, send a bouquet of daisies like this: http://ww22.1800flowers.com/product.do?b...

In the card, say %26quot;Beautiful daisies for a beautiful girl. Happy Birthday! Your name%26quot; Then she HAS to come up to you and thank you. Have them delivered to school so that she%26#039;s called to the office to pick them up! My boyfriend did that to me a few times, and it made all my friends jealous because I had someone who cared enough to do that. (Helped that his mom is a florist... lol)
Reply:Can%26#039;t hurt,go for it.

What's the best web site to use to send a Birthday gift (Flowers or anything else..) to a very dear person in

Hello,

I have a very dear person to me in Italy and I want to send a Birthday present. The gift could be Flowers or anything nice.

So do you guys know any good web site I could use for that?

Good as good in service, price and variation of available gifts.

I hope you could help me!

Thanks in advance :)

What%26#039;s the best web site to use to send a Birthday gift (Flowers or anything else..) to a very dear person in

My husband ordered from there and (not them) the shipping company didn%26#039;t deliver my flowers when they were supposed to. They gave us a credit and re-delivered them even though it wasn%26#039;t their fault. They had great customer service!

What flowers for her birthday?

Her birthday is 14th June 1979. She will be 28 this year.

I want to get her 28 flowers or maybe more than 28 or less, depends really. If I decide to get 28 flowers, here is the meaning of the 28 flowers.

Flower 1: Thank You God for creating her and because of God he created her so that I know such a kind person like her exists

Flower 2: I would like to thank her parents for giving birth to such a nice child.

Flower 3: She is the most beautiful girl I ever met.

Flower 4. She is the kindest girl I ever known.

Flower 5: She is the most decent girl I ever met

Flower 6: She is the most caring person I ever known.

Flower 7: She is the best girl I known in my 28 years of life.

Flower 8: I am the luckiest person on earth to be so fortunate to know her

Flower 9: She changed my life from a horrible person to a nice person by her good character.

Flower 10: She is my inspiration to be a good and useful persona nd she thought me on how to be caring.

What flowers for her birthday?
You are a very caring man..and you deserve each other. How nice that you appreciate her and love her so much. American men should take heed and appreciate their girlfriends and express themselves the way you do. What I would do is do a search on your computer as:

species of flowers

You would have to find out what flowers grow in your country. I would go to the flower market and speak with a florist and ask them if they could make up a bouquet filled with 28 different flowers and then of course you would write the card explaining your feelings and the meaning of each flower. Or to make it simpler, have a bouquet of 28 the same flower made up and write that each of the 28 flowers has a different meaning and write down all the sayings on a beautiful card. Just writing down the way you feel will let her know the love and appreciation you have for her. I wish you good luck and I hope you marry this girl one day and have a wonderful life together.
Reply:Tulips are my favorite flower so that is my first answer but

Stargazer Lilies are beautiful and so fragrant and tend to last longer than %26quot;typical%26quot; flowers like roses.
Reply:Get 14 Roses and 14 carnations!! Welove these flowers and typeup all of the meaning she willl love you FOREVER and always

Reply:Getting 28 flowers for 28 years is a great idea. I don%26#039;t think it would it would matter if you had 28 reasons but if you do then put them in a card and enclose it with your bouquet and give her a big hug. The forist will have some good ideas for u just ask.

What is the value of flowers as birthday gifts at present???
I absolutely love flowers as a gift for any reason.
Reply:i think the best bd gifts are when you are with your friend or loved ones!
Reply:If the reciever likes flowers then its a nice gift. If you go to the trouble of finding out what their favourite flowers are then its a really great gift.

I buy myself flowers every week as a gift to myself, they make my home feel really nice, occasionally my man friend buys me flowers but he knows better than to turn up with a dozen red roses which would signify his guilt. LOL.
Reply:most guys are stupid, and give flowers when they did something wrong, so they think if they give them when they haven%26#039;t, it will make it look like they did :D

I love to give flowers to a girl, at random times ... usually the ones that are their favorite (especially if it is different than a rose), and reserve the roses for the %26#039;holidays%26#039; with something else more personal included.
Reply:i love to get flowers i allways dry 1 out if its from a special occasion i still have a rose from my 1st date with my husband when we met :)
Reply:I think I got the shaft- I bought my man an 8gb MP3/ video player- I got flowers..... Just flowers..... Only flowers..... After 2 years together. He still hasn%26#039;t gotten his christmas present because I haven%26#039;t gotten mine and there%26#039;s no way I%26#039;m buying him his chocolate phone that he wants while I get a dreamcatcher or something lame like that.
