How would girls feel about receiving flowers on a first date?

I honestly didn't want this much replies, I want to delete it but it won't let me.

Wouldn't it make more sense if you got to know her first? That way you could scope around to see what's her favourite flower (if she even has one)... there are some girls who don't even like flowers by the way... and you would probably be inconveniencing her with the task of carrying a bunch of flowers she didn't even want in the first place and hence risk coming across as a desperate presumptuous asshole who lacks creativity... 🤷‍♂️

I remember I done this with a girl once... and she told me she liked black Rose's but never had any... I didn't even know those things existed before that conversation... anyways I went home and done my research... turns out they are super rare and only grow in this small town in Turkey next to the river Euphrates and the black colour is only possible for a few weeks during the summer season (otherwise they are this dark purple colour)... so I waited till summer season started and sourced out a specialist flower merchant in Turkey who was willing to airmail me them on the same day as processing them... because once the flower is cut it will last for a maximum of 7 to 9 days... so I couldn't afford to lose 7 days on transportation. I ended up ordering 7 of them because she told me that's her favourite number... once they arrived.. I took them to another flower specialist who helped me present them nicely in a vase.. I then had to befriend her sister so that she will allow me in to the family house so I could leave the flowers as a pleasant surprise for her... I basically ended up masterminding this elaborate operation just so this girl can enjoy the novelty of having 7 black Rose's... As usual I played it cool and acted like it was nothing ahahaha... I don't think the penny dropped in her head until a friend of hers informed her of how rare they are and where they must have come from... but that was like a good 2 days afterwards...

On hindsight I think I got a little carried away in the moment... and I should have just bought her a nice bracelet or something... all that effort was totally not worth it for some flowers that looked like they are meant for mourning lmao...

It could be perceived as being too eager. But then - if there was already some contact before the actual date - I'd be tempted to come along with something small enough and neutral enough.
One hundred red roses are truly overdone. But a small and pretty bundle of what's-their-name should be ok.

[BlackRoseFairy]

If it was the very first time we are actually meeting each other then it would be awkward. It's like he's trying to hard to impress me, without even knowing me at all...

If we knew each other some time before and were acquainted but not romantically involved then I could accept the gesture.

[BlackRoseFairy]

Thanks for MHO!

[RoseGold_]

Personally if it was someone I am just meeting for the first time during this date, I'd be a little alarmed. But if it was someone who I'd known beforehand/someone I've been friends with, I would see it as insanely cute.

[DizzyDesii]

I've always wanted to receive a single red rose. Told every guy that in the past and only my mom ever gave me one (anonymously). One ex even took the credit for it. Smh

[zozo7880]

"one ex even took the credit for it" LMAO that was a ballsy move by him.

[ecfresh]

As a romantic that’s a small detail I would pick up and remember if we started dating. Then either on a special occasion or a random weekday would find a way of hiding the rose with a poem for you to discover and cherish.

So my advice is let a guy know that and see if he can deliver.

[DizzyDesii]

@zozo7880 yes i was like BABE YOU GOT ME FLOWERS. And he was like YEAAAAAA, WHAT U THINK OF EM. Bastard played along the whole time til lqter that day my mom told me it was from her

[PeacefulRainDrop]

I did and I loved it! Shows there is true interest that he wants to get to know me more! He brought me flowers and chocolate cake!

[StingRayxoxo]

2nd date might be nicer like hey I was thinking of you!

[RSong]

I think it's nice and a very sweet and classic gesture. It shows that you admire a girl if you buy her flowers

[Moth31]

Same thought here

[19magic]

After a few months of knowing her, yeah would be real sweet but it's never necessary and first date is quite weird

[thegirlfromthething]

Personally, I think a gift like that is too much on a first date. I’m happy just spending time with him.

[Ámayas_20]

I think it would be cute but not practical since I don't get picked up at my house on a first date so I'd have to carry them around all night.

[Massageman]

That might be a bit strong for the first date. The exception would be if that date was for an event that "requires" flowers, then a small corsage or nosegay would be appropriate.

[Miss_Savanna_Dry]

I'll answer this one day whenever it happens on a first date 😅

[Secret6620]

I love flowers. Guys don't really do it anymore🌺💐💐💐

[imchrxs]

I would love it. Bring me flowers whenever and I would automatically fall in love.

[whatusayin]

i can't fly.

[Dinklex3]

I don't care for flowers, but it's the thought that counts.

[Royalsarcasist]

Second or third date maybe after you actually know the person. 1st date would be rather presumptuous

[Taylor_C]

Seems creepy and intrusive. I would not feel comfortable with the guy.

[Anonymous]

I’d rather receive gifts after we’ve actually known each other for a while, that way i know his gift is sincere and he doesn’t just give gifts meaninglessly.

[Alice2398]

Id think he was a bit overly keen but id also find it very sweet

[WhoDatGuy]

great, painting yourself as a Easy touch from day 1.
Your supposed to make them work for you, not just give them the keys to the city straight away.

[007-Tarzan]

Keys to the city 🤣👌

[Agem123]

On a first date? I would very very awkward getting flowers

[Agem123]

Feel* Lol

[chriscdi]

hand her dead flowers with a smile, watch her move out 😂

[Deathraider]

Why did you give me a plants reproductive organ you Angiospermphiliac!

[karenfray23]

I think that's so sweet and it shows the girl that you really care! ❤️

[Factshurt90]

That’s sweet. I’d be caught off guard.

[Clowr]

Not a bouquet for the first date. One is good.
