My gf gave me flowers last year not long after we first got together. I thought it was ace - nobody had ever done that before

I don't like being sent flowers
They are dead things. I rather get a plant.

I was never really a fan of flowers but if a bloke sent them to me I reckon I'd be over the moon.

I'd be happy that he thought of me
But I'd be thinking "Obviously, he doesn't know me well enough, he's not put enough effort. Next time he'll be sending me chocolates" (I don't like chocolate)

hahaha
to be real, if a guy got me chocolates I'd probably die a little inside, yes I'm fat, no I don't want you to send me chocolates

Yes, that's another point
And, ffs, be creative. What's that? Chocolate, flowers and a card? How original! Thanks!

Hahaha!
Oh, girl, at least I keep it to myself. I can imagine his face. But you were right, I'm sure he didn't spend a lot of time thinking about what to get you, eh?

it was actually because he wanted to go to the movies then go bowling and I'm like wtf really
probably two of the things I really don't like to do ever

Well, you did well telling him, I think
Maybe something more subtle would have been better, but then they complain that we're not straight forward.

So did you just leave him there, with the flowers and the chocolate, or did you go to the pictures?

And yet when someone gets you a nice
original present of a hoover, you cry!

Women.

It wasn't nice
It's not nice when it's to do work, rather than to have fun. Presents are for fun. Same as I can't understand socks or soap for present. Why? Give me something I'm going to enjoy.

I met Wiggy a few days before my birthday
and I wasn't expecting anything from him but he sent me some roses. However, the florists used Royal Mail and the roses arrived a week later in a bashed box that was covered in that tape that says "sorry your package was damaged". They were almost dead and pretty brown. When I rung Wiggy to tell him he said "there should have been a balloon as well" and I laughed myself silly.

Now, Royal Mail... grrr

I know, I was so annoyed with them!
But the idea of me receiving a bunch of dead mangled flowers from a boy I just met did make me laugh!
