Flowers are nice when its a one off surprise..and most women prefer a single rose to a big bunch of flowers as its more personal..of course we all know the rose represents love so it makes us girlies all mushy n shit...u cant go wrong there but we dont like getting them all the time...the occasion and time has to be right in order to appreciate gifts from ur loved one!
The reason for a delivery man - I live an hour away and I have no clue when she will be home. She is at the docotor almost every day. (sounds worse than it is).
The reason for the flowers - She never said she wanted flowers so I don't see how it would be being a doormat. I figured it would be a nice surprise. I already have her number and I talk to her nearly every day. ( I don't call her every day, we talk online) She wants to go out sometime but isn't sure when she will be up for it. This way I can show that I do care even if I can't see her.
Anyway its too late to change the order if I wanted too. (Don't worry I am not having second thoughts)
*Edit* Im not sure what gave you guys the idea that I do this all the time, this is a first for me. I think the occasion is perfect. She is having surgery today and if you have ever been through that its a real drag. What a better way to make a bad day slightly better.
Whatever it is, don't show up with ONE SINGLE rose. Bad manners.Quote:

Keep us posted!
why you think ONE SINGLE rose is bad manners?Quote:

I think you're a sweetheart and I'm sure she is going to love them.
And definitely good call on the delivery. Its more of a surprise that way, and she doesn't have to feel you are pressuring her in any way.
Keep us posted :D

Ratfish256,
You know how gals feel when they got flowers, dont you?
Seems to me you want all gals here to tell you "You are sweet" :cool:
it was not your original intention, was it?

Why would you want girls to tell you are sweet?
Life is not like romantic comedies, where you think "if I like this girl and I stay around with her for some time, she'll realize I have feelings for her and hopefully she will have feelings for me."
That's bullshit, if she has no affections for you, why WASTE your time showering her with gifts? TRUST ME, I've been there and cae back
Nice guys finish last my man. When she gets them, she'll probably give you a call. Ask her out right then and there. If you don't you are totally in the friend zone
Take my advice or disregard it, but you live and you'll learn
I believe that what Ratfish wanted was to make an impression on a nice young lady. I believe that based on the reaction of the LADIES of this group it is clear that he will do just that.
If finishing last is the price I have to pay for being the nice guy I am willing to accept that. Maybe you didn't notice the other few times I have said this, but she already said that she wants to get together with me. Right now she is feeling like shit. After her surgery (today) she may feel better. I am pretty convinced that she is interested in me at this point. I would go more into that but I could write pages of stuff, just ask Jules.
I can vouch for him - he speaks the truth.
I used to get my ex's roses. I got a single rose for Robin every now and then. Just out of the blue, just to say "i love you" - she absolutely loved it.
And then when I was with Destine and I cheated on her with Robin, I went out and bought 12 dozen roses ($144 +tax) to say I'm sorry. She loved it and said I didnt have to do that, but i know she still loved it.
I dont think I ever bought destine single roses. It just didnt feel right to do it seeing that it was mine and Robin's thing... Doubt I'll ever do that for another woman...
......Well, I want Jade to tell me I am sweet. I figured I could ask the other gals what they thought about it.
