Girls, is it a bad idea to give roses on the first date?

[Anonymous]

Is giving rose when meeting for the first time in person bad?

Yes

No

[Guy13]

Giving, especially one rose 🌹, on any date is a faux pas as it communicates Needy, improper Socialization skill set, and her opened mouth 👄 stunningly dropped.
Six Sunflowers 🌻 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 and “ you make those look good” is acceptable, Corny, good hearted, and cute 💪.

I can't stand when there is no context with questions like this. For the most part it's a YES don't ever do that but of course you in the comments state you have known her for 2 years. Why not do an update and say that? Clown.

[Vesuvius87]

Yes at this age, I would take it that you're lovebombing and expecting sex but nothing serious.

[Asker]

So if I was 24 something, it would be okay?

[Vesuvius87]

If you're not looking for anything serious and neither is the woman (both on the same page) then it might be ok. In regards to the update of knowing her for 2 years, well that changes things.

[Asker]

How does it change things?

[Vesuvius87]

She's not a stranger you're getting to know on a date. She's a friend you've spoken with and known for 2 years.

[Account]

I would advice you to refrain from doing that.

[Asker]

Why?

[Account]

Because you do not know her that well. Most people from the outside would call your act romantic and of course it looks romantic to outsiders, but in reality, I think it is too soon.
Especially if you do not know her that well.
It might come off as a little pushy.
People as outsiders feel that this action is nice and thoughtful, however it might cross her mind that it is an attempt to manipulate her or bribe her.

[Asker]

We are friends and I've known her for almost 2 years.

[Account]

In that case, it is okay

[Asker]

Thanks!

[Account]

You are welcome, I thought in the beginning she was a girl you didn't know well

[Asker]

I know her well but it's kinda strange for me as I've never done this but I do know that she loves flowers and she even told me once that she wishes a guy would give her flowers everytime she meets him. Also, I am afraid to give her flower because I don't want her to become uncomfortable. She is sweet but very introverted/reserved and I don't want her to over think things.

[OlderAndWiser]

Give her a single yellow rose. The yelow rose symboles friendship and that is what you already have established, so it is not presumptuous for you.

[Asker]

That's a good thing but I have told her that I like her and want something more. Should I still give yellow rose?

[OlderAndWiser]

Yes, because you are startng as frends.

[Asker]

Thank you very much

[OlderAndWiser]

Good luck!

I once did this, giving a girl 1 rose on the first meeting, 2 on the 2nd, and 3 on the 3rd.

It symbolizes the love we shared getting ever more serous even as the infatuation withers.

[Asker]

How did it go?

[Opinion Owner]

She ended up having issues that tied her to a city, and as such when work forced me to move on she did not, and could not follow.

As you can see by the answers here, it depends on the woman. As far as I can tell, the women on this app aren't exactly of the highest order, so I'd take them saying you'll look desperate and weird with a grain of salt.

In my experience, women always enjoy a romantic gesture such as giving them a rose. Even the first time meeting them

[Wraith_Cemetery]

Yep, exactly. Most of the girls on here are ridiculous. I, too, don't take anything they say seriously. Classy traditional women I've met in real life all would appreciate receiving a rose on the first date.

[Opinion Owner]

Absolutely

[Anonymous]

In the words of Stacey King "KYP", "Know your personnel". Some women would love that. Those are the keepers. Some women would be creeper out by that. Those are the women you should never have even asked out. One things for certain. Never give her more than a single rose on a first date. It leaves you nowhere to go from there.

[Zabuza]

It seems very basic but is a nice gesture and I'm sure most women would appreciate it.

[Anemone978]

I think its sweet... and not so overbearing as a whole bouquet :D

[Confusedashell123]

I think that’s super cute and you should definitely do it. The last guy that brought me roses on our first date I dated for several months (this is years ago) but he definitely cherished me

[D_Bone_Steak]

I can't even vote. I just don't know. When I was younger doing such a thing would equal insta-pussy on tap. Now days you might get rejected for such a thing.

[Anonymous]

No. It’s not like you give them a grenade which is bad

[Asker]

Hahahaha

[xoxosilentgirl]

its kinda awkward but super cute, some girls will think you’re a weirdo but some also will appreciate it so much

[mobiusforniner]

I did it for a blind date. Honestly from my experience, you can't go wrong with it.

[rienna888]

that's kind of awkward and makes you look kind of desperate

[PatriceONeal]

Asking women for dating advice is bad. You wouldn't ask a fish how to catch fish you'd ask a fisherman.

[Iron_Man]

It depends how long you’ve been talking on the phone before you meet up

[Iron_Man]

Or texting

[KrakenAttackin]

Yes, unless she thinks you are a Chad, she will see the rose as cringe.

[Wise4myage]

That's not bad at all.

[Anonymous]

i'd suggest you don't do that.

[Asker]

Why not?

[Opinion Owner]

it will come off as too strong.

[Asker]

That's what I am afraid of but I have been coming off too strong from the beginning so let's hope for the best.

[gingerguyslover]

So romantic

[Babygirl_S]

I consider it romantic.

[itsalyssaagain]

It’s cute

[Cheerfull009]

It is good, sign of love
