Not true Woggle. My H often brings home flowers for me or has them delivered to my work and I love it. He makes me feel special and I also appreciate what a good man he is.

 

Didn't you cheat on him in the past? A lot of good that flower bringing did him.

This is real life. All these women saying they love getting flowers would consider a man to be smothering them if they actually did it.

 

This I agree with.

It's true. I see it all the time at work on valentines day. Women get flowers from their men and act annoyed by it. They make fun of these men behind their back. Guys when you send your wife or girlfriend flowers at work this is her reaction when you are not around.

Oh be quiet!! Flowers are not smothering at all. You know what would be though? Being with a man with such a negative outlook on life and women. That would suck the life right out of me. Sheesh!

Well, it is a point - but regardless - good to hear how women like flowers.

Flowers are cliche. It's like saying, "I've heard that this works, and I have no idea why, but I'm trying it on you. If I can buy your affection and not have to earn it, I'll go ahead do that. I'm a sap."

 

They are useless and only last a couple of days. And they make a mess.

Actually it's not a good point, because for example I have never cheated on a man in my entire life and I love getting flowers. Secondly what does one thing have to do with the other even in Anne1707's case? Unless you see getting women flowers as a way to control them, then sure he has a point. I thought gift giving was to make the other person happy but someone like Woggle clearly would see it as a way of manipulation, ie. I get her flowers I get to control her level of dedication to me. I've cooked many meals for men in my past an done a lot of loving gestures for them one of them dumped me despite it all. Should I give up doing nice gestures because a man will potentially dump me anyway? Nothing guarantees a perfect relationships. In love you should always put your best foot forward and let the chips fall where they may.

That's wonderful that you've never cheated on a man. Very admirable! Women like that are a rare find and to be cherished.

In other worse even though in the end a woman will betray you men should bend over backwards for them anyway? My point was that if she loves getting flowers so much why did she cheat? Nice guys who send flowers are the men who mostly get dumped and cheated on

I wish all women thought like this. The more women that are like this, the better. :)

No we are not, stop over-dramatizing!!

Women like this are very very rare plus you look young in your avatar so you still have time. Once you have a loving man who you are bored of then we will see how faithful you are.

So every woman on this thread who love flowers you are calling FOS?

I'm not over-dramatizing :)

 

There are more and more guys who above else want an honest, loyal, trustworthy kind of woman.

Stupid question coming from a guy who claims he has found the LAST perfect woman on earth and yet he chose his dumb-azz friend over his wife and almost lost the only last good thing that had happened to him. That should be your answer right there: NO ONE IS PERFECT!

I have experienced enough of women to know their ways.

 

Most women on here who say they love flowers will choose the scumbag who feeds their drama addiction over the flowers sending gentlemen anyday.

I'm 38, yes I look young but I am not.

Whilst I do not want to play down what I did in the past, I should point out that my H does not raise the fact that I had an affair - only posters here on LS do this. Can I also remind you that he too had an affair (before I did) so your theory above does not quite work.

 

Anyway back to topic, I love getting flowers from my H (and I have also sent him flowers). Gestures like this are so good because they show that you are thinking of the other person even when not together and that you just want to spoil them.

Pyro, it's just more troll behaviour. In throwing out the gauntlet, he puts the onus on women to prove him wrong otherwise. It gets him the attention he craves from women, he retains control of women who try to rebutt, since he puts them on the defensive and proves his ability to be a playah, since he can treat women like crap and they flock.

 

So that's why he does this. ;)

 

Flowers are beautiful and always appreciated. :love:

Me too Woggle. I have dated my fair share of women to know that they are all different. Some have turned out to be lower than dog crap and some are generally good people. You can't generalize them all into one group. Not healthy to live in a close minded world. You are the perfect example of that.

 

Again, you know this because you asked all of them?

The ultimate fail is growing them yourself and doing the arrangements personally. BTDT. TBH, my experience (and being much older) aligns with Wog's. Sorry :(

Why would you make this into a negative? There are centainly some women out there who cheat on men and don't like flowers, but why make the assumption that the good women will change for the negative? I don't agree with that.

Yup. Most men who have been through it deep down know I am right.

I'd like to add that this experience will not keep me from cultivating the garden and enjoying them myself :)
