I suppose they're a bit traditional/old fashioned at the same time.
But aye, whenever I've bought flowers it's been for someone who actually liked them.

Forever.

Sex-pests say it with flowers:

Here, I bought flowers last week and they were loved.

My boyfriend and I went for a walk in Queens Park last week after dinner one night. As we walked into the park there was a single white rose on the ground just at our feet, so he picked it up and gave it to me. I thought that was romantic, or maybe I'm just a cheap date.

Buy your would-be love their name in flowers, bit more personal.

Not for your mum, ideally.

If he planned the whole thing and left the rose there ahead of time....

Other than that, I reckon you're just cheap.

I think Rowsbette's article is still all the debate we need on this topic.

You'll have a flaw, we'll find it!

The most romantic thing that's ever happened to me was probably..Getting a blowjob whilst playing Pro Ev and listening to Super Scoreboard.

Maybe its just me, but all of the above i would expect my girlfriend to do anyway, more as girlfriend type duties, as opposed to being romantic. When i get sick i dont think its romantic that my bird looks after me, its her fuckin job innit.

Where're the options for girls who try to be romantic, or for guys who quite like people romancin' at them? Why are the female options so... passive?

Jaemi · 16th May 2008, 4:53pm

I'm a girl, I like romance.
I'm a girl, romance, pah!

As for the latter, like I said I don't think romance in this sense is really appreciated by guys.

Vonnie · 16th May 2008, 5:31pm

I think it needs to work both ways, if you're a girl and you're all about the romance then you need to dish it out sometimes. Needless to say I don't have the time/energy/inclination to go for big romantic acts so I can't complain when they aren't returned. But it is nice when it's done spontaneously.

Also, I really hate getting flowers. The mad hippy in me gets quite upset at the prospect of loads of flowers being picked so nobody else can enjoy them. I much prefer getting a plant that can keep growing.
