Buying flowers for guys

i guess it depends on the guy. personally, im not a big flower person, although if someone sent me one (a single flower, not a bokay) i would think it was really sweet of them, makes you know there thinking of you. if i got a bokay i would be like "what do i do with this":lol: . i probably would not send flowers unless i was sure he would like them, but if i knew he would like them i would make it rain flowers!:icon_bigg

 

I personally wouldnt, mainly because of gender stereotypes. However thats what society wants you to think so really there is nothing wrong with it. I dont know what I would do if I received flowers, probably plant them or something. Not a flower person myself but I would say thanks.

 

I'd be OK about a guy sending me flowers.
I probably wouldn't send a guy flowers unless I knew he liked flowers.

If I wasn't sure what he liked I'd probably send him a nice card with words that describe how I feel about him.

 

Since you ask you probably have thought of the idea...
I'd say its difficult to tell, but many people like it, if they can make themselves free from stereotypes.
Some flowers can be a wonderful decoration for a room.

You could think about tulips...
here are some meanings:
Flower Meanings and Meanings of Flowers

or even some pot plants.
Another idea would be a plant which yields fruits... like a small orange tree...

 

I'm not a guy but my uncle loves flowers He does nothing but spend time at flower shops, decorates his whole house with them, etc.

I think this depends on the person, not the gender stereotype. As a woman myself, I would dislike receiving flowers as a gift and some men would like it -shrug-

 

I'd feel weird buying flowers for a guy, but was also raised to buy a date or parner flowers (even though that was for females :lol. I might buy some for a guy if he either likes them or has an empty vase.

If a guy were to buy me flowers I'd be flattered. It would feel weird to receive them, but also I'd see it as a kind and sweet gesture.

 

If I had a partner, I would really like getting flowers. As for giving them, I think I would consider it, after developing a strong enough relationship.

 

Like others have said, it depends on the person. I'm not overly crazy about flowers so it wouldn't be my choice for what I'd like as a gift. My bf loves flowers, so they'd make great gift for him.

 

I wouldn't care for it, personally. Something unique would be cool.

 

I probably wouldn't get a guy then unless I knew he really liked them.

I'd feel weird of someone gave them to me. It'd be sweet for like a minute but then I'd be like "what the heck am I supposed to do with these things now"

 

For valentines day all I would want is a box of chocolates but honestly I really wouldn't give a shit if he didn't get me anything because valentines day is a stupid holiday anyway.

 

I love flowers, if a guy gave me some, my heart would melt. I am a sucker for romantic gestures by boys. I would also want to be serenaded by a guy.

 

Ultimately it's the gesture that counts, right? I don't care much for flowers but I'd be touched if I received them. It means someone thought about me and put some time and effort into choosing a gift; I'd think it's sweet (even if the flowers would probably die real fast in my care, haha).

So I'd be fine about receiving flowers, but if you're not sure about whether the guy likes them or not, you might want to pick something a little less stereotypically female. I'd only send a guy flowers if I knew it wouldn't make him feel uncomfortable. (Although I'm sure 9 times out of 10 he'd just think it's sweet).

 

I think I would be a little uncomfortable with it. It just feels weird. I think if I felt like doing it I wouldn't think twice though.

A cute ballon or card sounds a lot more easy.

 

I don't think I would send someone flowers.

If someone gave them to me though, I'd find it terribly sweet.

 

Sending them would depend on who he is and what he likes. As for receiving them, I would like it. I'd like any gift, even if it was a small trinket that didn't cost a lot because it's a gift. I don't hold high expectations on any holiday..

 

I would love flowers!

No one to get them from, but I would love them. :lol:

 

I have given guys flowers before and I used to actually receive them quite often, still do occasionally. It's nice--it's not my favorite gift, either to give or receive, but I've never thought it was strange in any way.

 

I used to be scared of flowers, but I'm over all of it now except the dandelions (I HATE dandelions) and I still get a little uneasy around some of the others. I would be okay with all flowers sent to me as long as there are no dandelions there.
