"So how did you like those flowers John sent you??? It was ALL my idea."

[NobodyUKnow]

The best flower trick I learned is to send them anonymously... then the next time you see them start talking about the kind of flower you sent them... you can game them for a long time about it, making her go through hoops until she finally realizes it was you.

"I'm too modest to take credit for making your day... sometimes the best way to make someone's day is just to go it without wanting any credit" - Someone who cares/likes you/wants 2 do you

Then in the conversation just drop subtle hints until she puts it together... make her ask you if you sent them, and then get all modest and admit it was you... say something like "I didn't see the smile you had on when you got them... can you show it to me again?"

When I was married, my wife and I got in a big fight. She was so pissed at me, she wouldn't even talk to me. A half an hour later, the doorbell rang. There was a delivery of this country-style arrangement of various colorful spring flowers in a woven basket. The name on the tag was for the old couple that used to live there. I removed the tag and threw it away.

I got laid a few minutes later.

Evil. Scandalous. Opportunistic. Respect!

Seriously, talk about being thrown a bone by the gods.

Some funny stuff here, greatest thread ever

Back in the AFC days, I too sent flowers anonymously with positive results

[Elation]

wow

um, ok.. flowers

first off it should be cleared up that flowers in and of themselves ARE NOT of any real value. It's what they represent

Just like any gift you give a woman, it's about the meaning behind it.

Flowers do however carry a special weight because they traditionally signify romance and beauty.

So then when is it ok to give flowers? Well, it depends on why you're sending them. If you're giving flowers as a trick to make the girl like you more thinking that somehow she'll think your sweet or kind or romantic, chances are she'll see through it as approval seeking, creepy and week. She'll enjoy the ego trip that another dumb guy is swooning over her, but it will be more annoying than anything.

Flowers can be sent with two successful meanings though. First one is if you send them to a girl that you know is thinking about you all the time and you want to let her know you're thinking about her almost as much as she is you. It makes her feel special that you appreciate her so much that you would take the time out to send her a completely random gesture of affection. It's also one of the biggest possible potential boyfriend signals on this planet. Key in this situation is that it has to be random and the relationship has to be slightly in your favor so that the flowers only balance it out.


The second situation it can be a good idea to send flowers to a girl is to apologize. It says to her that you care enough about the relationship to take the thought and effort out of your day to let her know that you realize you made a mistake. Now some girls will still throw those flowers away, because they want to make sure they can hear from you that you're not just spending money to buy them back but that you actually admit that you were wrong and out of line. The only times you can really mess up and have flowers actually work to win her back is if you pushed her away because your ego was so big that you didn't leave any room for her. She feels that you don't respect or appreciate her enough and that you don't give her enough love and affection.


But guys, sending flowers IS NOT about getting laid. It's about letting the girl know how important the relationship is to you.

I will say this though; I did know a romantic once. He was a seducer, slept with hundreds of women. He played the whole romantic angle because literally no other guy on this planet does this. Only way it worked though was because he was automatically always higher value than the girl to begin with. They were already attracted and digging on him.

The reason you shouldn't send a woman gifts is that she'll come to expect it.

There are a few reasons I never send a girl flowers.
1. Every AFC does it. I think WF put an interesting twist on it. However, I personally think he should leave her in the dark about who they're from.
2. Usually an AFC does it when he has screwed up. Flowers have a bit of a stigma attached to them. When you're buying flowers, someone will inevitibly walk up to you and say, "uh oh, what did you do?"
3. Flowers die quickly. So any good feelings she gets from them will turn into feelings of dead, rotten flowers that are decomposing in her kitchen.

Well she gets her flowers--24 red roses (I deserve to get cancer). I had signed the note "John Galt", and not I realize she probaly won't get the reference. Should be interesting if she does a google search.

This girl is a 7. It's likely she's never gotten flowers before. I don't know why I have such strong feelings for her, especially considering the fact that she is 5 years older than me and an ultra right wing christian. She even used the word "Dern" in her last email to me. (I love it when women talk dirty like that).

She used to be attracted to me but I blew it a long time ago. I guess we'll see how this plays out.

funny but 7's with a good personalities get flowers from chumps more often than you would think

if i was a chick i would check 1800 flowers.com to see how much the guy spent on me... so i bet they do that too
