I like getting flowers , I've not heard any one that I know , say that

I think sending flowers for the rights reason is always welcome. But if you send them or give them over and over as an apology it gets old. I had a friend who recently moved and she got flowers from a co-worker who was in Turkey at the time on her last day at work and it really made her day.

I LOVE getting flowers from anyone, not just guys.

I've only known one woman who made it clear to me that she never wanted flowers, and that diamonds were not her best friend. She didn't want someone killing flowers for her benefit and won't accept diamonds due to the fact that there is slavery involved in the mining of them. But I think most women appreciate the thoughtful sentiment.

I love flowers - husband gets them for me all the time.

Every person is an individual- it's important to respect that and not treat them like stereotypes, or assume that their individual preferences are "lies" because they differ from your preconceptions. If a woman told you she does not want flowers, if you get her flowers that's telling her you do not remember, or care, about her likes or dislikes. It tells her that to you, she is just another woman, not an individual. Perhaps she would prefer a living potted plant instead of cut flowers, or perhaps she is allergic to plants. Or perhaps there is something SPECIFIC that she would like- something that if you got it for her, she would know you pay attention.

I love getting flowers - wish my boyfriend would send them more!

I must be one of the weird ones. I LOVE getting flowers but my BF refuses to buy them "because they just die" (He says it's a waste of money). I think that some may believe the same (that it's a waste of money), and then others probably just say that, because they think that's what their man wants to hear.

I've gotten flowers as a Valentine's Day gift for the first time recently and getting them made me feel good about myself.
-
My wife hates it because she's not the type to like to draw attention. I have learned this and now I take her out to her favorite restaurant instead. We both are alot happier.

From experience, they prefer jewelry:)Although my g/f does love flowers. She buys them for herself on a regular basis.
-
I like to get flowers now and then, but I wouldn't want them all the time because then it would not be special and it's really a waste of money.
-
Some women like getting flowers, I have never liked it myself. My father would get my mom corsages and she was unhappy when he did so I think in my case anyway its a learned response.
-
I think you are absolutely right.
-
I know for a fact that that is not true. My mother, for whatever reason, absolutely hated flowers. The worst possible thing you could've given her was a bouquet of anything. If someone tells you they don't like getting flowers, respect their wishes or it could backfire badly.

I'm a woman. I don't like getting flowers from a guy and thats no lie!
-
i think it makes there day cause it shows that the guy was thinking about them we just like to be reassured that we r on your mind
-
We (women) do not want to tell you or remind you to buy us flowers. like the saying goes..it is the thought that counts. women like surprises.
-
I love it and I get them quite often:)
-
you have me pegged because i do exactly that.
-
I love flowers!
-
i love it when a guy buys or even picks me flowers...
-
My partner knows i HATE flowers that are shop brought, it always makes me feel negative, like they're trying to apologise for doing something awful or for hitting you!! I love flowers that are picked from the wild, it shows they care and you'll know they took the time out to get them for you, its very sweet. I used to pick flowers for my mum and tie them with a blade of grass :)
