Can sending flowers be something with only platonic feelings behind it?

[Cynicaldreamer]

Yes, I've had friends give me flowers (male and female).
However, they usually let me know upfront they were "just being nice," or in the case of Valentine's day, I got them out of pity 😑
Yay for pity flowers, lol

Flowers, specifically roses, are different colors, and usually signify meanings as well, such as friendship or love.

But more often than not, I wouldn't get a friend flowers without a good reason behind it.

[courtney06]

I think that would be a little tricky if you are both single and know each other personally. I have given people flowers with platonic feelings behind it because they were female friends and family and one male stage performer who I didn't know personally.

[Phoenix98]

Well the only women I'd send flowers to would be my mother, my grandmother or my partner, not a friend.

But you can most certainty send a girl flowers with just platonic feelings behind it. It's not something that has to be romantic it's just all about the intentions behind it.

[TheFlak38]

you can always give flowers to a woman. it doesn't have to be a romantic move.

[OlderAndWiser]

Yes, you can send flowers with purely platonic intent, but you need to avoid sending red roses or over-the-top bouquets which might suggest a romantic interest.

[Alexandrubaschet08]

Personal when i bring flower is an older woman who is in a certain position in the society as a gift for respecting her, like a doctor, teacher, economist and others...
But when i bring flower to a girlfriend i expect her to belive that a true akt of love from me and that is not just a normal thing that she should expect, in that time i expect her to see my true feelings for her

[JPrez]

For me when I sent them it was to someone that had caught my eye and I had introduced myself to. Very early in a relationship. However later on I would send them when the relationship was taking off and there was mutual interest. Some people thought will send them if they have a crush on you.

[DJB72]

Historical meanings behind colour of flowers, the type of flower and arrangements have a multitude of meanings. Yellow roses were always a gesture of friendship, not romance, while red carnations were a traditional funeral display.

Meanings change over time and these days most people think all flowers must be romantic. It's a shame really.

[Dongtai]

When in doubt, attach a card to it that places emphasis on “friendship”. Or when you give it to them say something like “You’re a wonderful friend and I just want to show appreciation for that friendship.”

[TruthBringer]

Depends on the context. Is the person sick or has something to celebrate? Sending flowers is no biggie. But outside these reasons, I see not why it is platonic. This is something you usually give to your romantic interest.

[Stylish27]

oh depends what kind of flowers they are and what u right in the card. Like i would send roses to a lover but diff type to lets say a relative in hospos

[Sheyhoney]

They can be platonic but you have to be careful what kind of flowers and message you send and for what reason. Usually flowers Are considered to be more romantic especially roses

[Dazed0N0Confused]

Yes. I like flowers. I tell my friends if they decide to get me anything for any reason, flowers. Just to brighten up my house.

[psychoticanimallover]

It’s ugly to murder something so beautiful then flaunt its death and decay to someone you supposedly love.

[bolverk]

Yes you can send flowers to someone with only platonic feelings behind it, that what the note-cards are for and your choice of flowers you send they all have meanings, If in doubt ask your florist for help.

[RingOfFire]

If a girl sends flowers to another girl maybe it can be friendship instead of romance. If a gay guy sends flowers to a girl maybe it can be for friendship instead of romance. If a straight guy sends flowers to a girl it's about romance.

[Skankhunt]

Yes, it also depends on the type of the flower and the color of the flower.

Meaning of different types and colors of a flower

[kkirk4442]

Sending flowers does not necessarily mean love. However, many feel that sending roses is a symbol of love, so it's best to not send roses, so the meaning is not misconstrued.

[genericname85]

I do that in neither case. I don't think that gifting something useless that's actually already dying at the moment the person gets it, is a good thing

[Minahh]

Yes on my birthday my brother and dad gave me flowers! Plus I don't think it's weird to sometimes give boys their favourite flowers either.

[Gravit1]

Condolences, wedding, funeral, or graduation could. For birthday or just spontaneous would be a little suggestive.

[GermanGuy87]

you could give flowers I guess but if they're close to your age I would think something romantic is behind it.

[sheikalana]

I've send flowers to many women to whom I'm not attracted to or have romantic feelings for.

[LemiaOfTheCodes]

I think so- It can be sign of symphoy if someome has passed away or apololgy

[Wise4myage]

Yes, I hear sending yellow flowers is the best way to go about this.

[JennieF]

Yeah. For example, if you're in the hospital, a friend might send flowers to brighten your hospital room.

[Just_Me89]

I suppose if it's understood from both parties that it's just platonic, sure it can.

[SeaSprayBreeze]

It should only be for romantic love if it's from a man to a woman.

[MecheD]

You can do this but you do run a risk at sending the wrong message so just dint make it a habit if you want it to stay the way it is

[Clarke498]

Sure. You never seen a daughter getting her older mother flowers.

[CapitalismFailed]

Did some guy just send you flowers out of the blue? That doesn't sound very normal.

[Massageman]

If course it can.

Our church Food Pantry also has flowers and plants to be given out to our guests, and it's now because we are going to have a (sexual) relationship with them.

[Lostguuy]

Yes you can send a friend flowers, most girls like getting flowers im thinking

[Tstrbrainer]

They can be platonic too, depending on how the sender of flowers usually behaves around you

[Ryfyle]

Dying plants are a shit gift. Give your Friends tools and weapons, things that should last longer than a rotting and depressing rose. You can easily fill a Vase with a wrench set.

[Hogwheels]

I've given flowers platonically

[Gwenhwyfar]

Depends on circumstances

[UnknownGagsUser]

I have never sent any flowers to my male friends

[Jamie05rhs]

I always thought it was a romantic thing.

[KrakenAttackin]

I send flowers for birthdays and funerals.

[GAGSucksBalls1]

Chose MHO quite quick didn't you?

[legalboxers]

depends on your feelings for them

[FakeNIK]

Every flower & their colors has different meanings

[msc545]

Yes, depending on the type of flowers

[Demerson35]

If its just one flower, yeah.

[EaterPeter]

Depends on how receiver sees it.

[007kingifrit]

never platonic

[aieeazumui]

Definitely yes

[Shah11]

And dildo too
