I love getting flowers! It's a nice feeling when someone makes a special stop to surprise you with them.

When I get flowers, I have a vase I put them in and I set it on the kitchen table. They brighten up the room and bring about an extra cheerful feeling.

Well some do. Also flowers are considered stereotypical feminin somehow. I guess that is the reason. I do like plants but not cut flowers. Get me a basil plant and I really appreciate it, get me bouquet of tulips and I wouldn't know what to do with it. 🙈😅

It's an old tradition. Why not just explain to the guy that gives you flowers that you appreciate the idea behind it, but would prefer a more practical gift next time? That way, you not only explain your thoughts but also don't hurt him.

We are told that flowers are romantic and marketed to buy them for valentines and special occasions. Personally I try to learn something unique about the person I’m into and would get them something based on that instead

I love getting flowers! They last 1-3 weeks and smell nice. I don't throw them out until they're dead. I think flowers are a thoughtful gift.

Re: update

I had an aunt whodidn't like getting cut flowers forthe sane reasons you gave.
If we have her flowers, they would be a live plant.

Omg, my phone hates me!

I agree, I prefer to go out and pick a wildflower bouquet on my property and then give her something that actually lasts.

Because most people are dumb therefore most women like flowers. When only the more rational ones realise flowers are a bad gift overall unless for certain examples of a true owner of plants who has many and keeps them alive.

Maybe it wasn't dumb when people didn't use synthetic scents. Just getting replaced by spray bottles.

It's easy. And yes, we know it's a cliché, but we still do it.

I suppose that is a romantic thing that men have picked up from watching lot of movies.

My mom LOVES flowers. Anytime you get them for her, she puts them out on the table. I like to say we have our very own "greenery" in the living room, lol

[Freyke]

I assume it because girls I have given it too melted and were super sweet for a solid week.

Flowers are a dumb gift.
Video games are better.
