Search Results: receiving flowers

So lol story time. as some of you may know, i do food deliveries for my job. well sometimes we also deliver other things like products from stores or just things other people want delivered to another person.

Well last night i had to pick up a bouquet of flowers. i think they were pink and white tulips. Anyway i delivered them to this house, there was a woman there who accepted them and instead of acting all lovey dovey 'wow flowers awwww!' her response was just 'ok.' and then she closed the door lol...

the guy who had me deliver them called me and asked it they got delivered. i said yes...

anyways i couldn't help but feel the 'gift' wasn't received well lol. maybe there's some drama there.

How would you feel if that was the response you got to receiving your flowers?

I'm not asking if you like receiving flowers. I'm asking if you believe in the concept in society of gifting flowers in general.

I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I've never believed in it. It makes no sense to me that people give you something that you don't really do anything to maintain and dies in 4 weeks tops. If I was to give something to someone I'd rather it be permanent like a necklace or something practical they can use. Either that or an experience with them.

When you receive flowers, you'll either leave them or you'll put them in some water then not touch them again until they need to be thrown out.

If I was to give someone flowers, it would be a potted plant.
