In my experience, there are a few women who would really like that, but most women will think that indicates a man who feels desperate to impress a woman and who lacks self-confidence, ESPECIALLY if it is a dozen red roses!
However, for many years, I would take a woman a SINGLE white rose on a first date, and I explained that white roses, traditionally, were used to celebrate new beginnings, which is what I hoped we would have if there was mutual interest. I never had a woman refuse or express the idea that a single white rose was too much.

My wife hates flowers because in her words "they are dying". My wife would prefer a potted plant. So on our first formal date, I brought her an orchid. She still has it, it's still alive, and it's huge after 10 years.
I would think that is too much for a first date. Maybe the fourth date would be better. Cause on a first date, I do not want to be pressured into a serious commitment. I want to make sure the guy is not crazy or malicious before I agree to meet him for a second coffee.
I like getting or receiving flowers at any time and not necessarily just on a first date.

Too much too soon.
First dates are for getting to know someone - and there's a decent chance that it isn't going to work out. Save romantic gifts until you are in a relationship.
Buy her an ice cream or something instead.First date? No. First date, generally speaking it’s like an interview…but doesn’t have to be conducted like an interview.
you get to know her first…then you can decide to bring her flowers or not or if you want another date.
All these kind/sweet gestures should be a part of courtship…def. not on a first date.In my opinion flowers are not for a first date. They're too much of a cliché nowadays. Actually, you'd give her the exact impression of the man in picture: "hi, I already like you, I read somewhere girls like flowers so here they are"
But after a while and if the relationship is going great, then a flower is a much appreciated gesture. Better if it's unexpected. Banal example: you drop at her place just to pick up something you forgot and you show up at her door with a rose (obviously not expecting anything in return but just because your heart told so)
depends on the girl. i imagine the majority will at least appreciate the gesture even if they don't particularly want the flowers.
i'm sure there will be some, maybe plenty, who will feel like it's more of a tactic to endear yourself with a gift rather than endear yourself through your personality
Not the type of women who'd be my type. Uh uh, and they're not my thing either. I never liked the whole flowers thing, now of course funerals, cemeteries, get well visits. Yet for dates or for lovers? Uh uh. I also don't like insects, flowers 🌺🌹 bring the insects 🥲
Yes they do, at least a lot of them do.
I know a few you'd make happier with a hamburger or something nerdy, but that just depends on the girl. Flowers are a safe bet.
Honestly wish I'd get flowers sometime.
I may be a man, but I'd appreciate it just the same.Never spend money on the first date.
Never dress differently than normal on first date.
Never go eat or watch movies on a first date.
Never be who you are not, it sends the wrong messages.
Don't do things that distract from each other. You trying to know this person and see if they are someone you want to be with.
You can't figure that out by watching a movie.
Be who you are and make sure they know who you are.
Go somewhere quiet, maybe drink a couple beers together or do some drugs together sit a SHARE conversation till the sun comes up.
You can end feeling like you've known each other forever after one date.
It's a very good feeling.
Be sure to be open and honest and truthfulFirst date is rather 'yes or no' date and flowers are surely too much for this task. However if mutual yes was defined before few red roses can grant some plus points but it's situation depending.
Mit depends, i think if you been with each other for long time, and now you decided to go on a date, than it's a good idea to bring flowers on first date.. otherwise it's a no.. it's too much for a first date. Let her be special enough..
I would probably bring her a pretty pink rose with babies breath, some green leaves wrapped in pretty cellophane. Of course you'd probably have to go to a florist to but it.
you don't get them on a 1st date but if you give him love on a 1st date you'll get them on a 2nd date
Yes, I had a date several weeks ago, the guy picked 2 sunflowers from his yard. It was a nice
I wouldn't expect it, but it would be nice. Honestly, I'd prefer chocolate, but yeah I'd like it.
That's a bit much for a first date for me, although it's nice !
I'm not really a fan but it's the thought that counts.
I personally don't on the first date. I like the first couple of dates to be a little more casual.
No. I hate flowers. It's like handing me a responsibility.
I would think the second date I would give her flowers. But I do like the idea a lot.
Not really.
I’ll definitely appreciate it, but I’m not a fan of flowers in general unless they’re in the ground.
Girls who like flowers probably will if they like/ already know the guy.
Some say flowers are like blowjobs for women. Unlike blowjobs it does not make us a hoe. Nothing wrong with it.
