This is the traditional way of courtship and for me It's wonderful to maintain and let it be always part of courtship! Women love flowers so for sure, it will always inspire and bring them happiness when they will receive flowers from their suitors,admirers or lovers.

Flowers are have become a symbol of romance in a relationship and while I like to get them I do not need them. If you want to impress me give me something different. Surprise me. But if you can not come up with soemthing other then flowers then make it something besides roses.

Flowers are very useful in courtship. It can make a relationship stronger and it can help catching the attention of the other partner. It can convey the feelings that other partner should also be as good as flowers. I love to present flowers on the special occasions like birthdays etc.

Hello checapricorn,
*Laughs* I am one particular woman who doesn't like flowers. I prefer them to give me chocolate instead of flowers! My husband knows me that he never ever gave me flowers from the first time we met until now. When I was young, I used to get bouquet of flowers from secret admirers. I gave to all my friends and sometimes, I brought home for my mother -aha, she loves flowers very much.

hello,
when my husband is courting me, he never give me flowers as he dont know how to speak mandarin at that time and dont know the area well so he asked me what my favorite chocolate was and he bought all that chocolates to the store he went and give it all to me. yum yum!
now (for 5 years), he gives me all kinds of gifts and usually a flower will be given to me when we go to a nursery farm or flower market and he will buy me the plant (yes plant LOL) coz i can keep it forever and always have the flower with me whenever it blooms. pretty smart ei?
i am not a material (clothes, jewelries, flowers, kitchen stuff, etc.) kind of person so whether he give it or not i will be as happy as i am now. i only cared about him and to have him is all that matters. the others are just bonus and part of the spicing up our relationship.
anyway, flowers and chocolates and marshmallow
are all sweet stuff to have.
takecare!

Flowers are very romantic and it makes women feel special you are very right. Women love romantic men. Most men act like they couldn't care less about a woman but flowers and perfume and little sweet gestures show that they really do.

I don't ask for flowers. It's a sweet gesture, but I think they look better in the ground in nature. Plus they sit on the window ledge and I forget about them and they die and it seems like a waste of money since they're usually expensive.
I'd rather have something else. Flowers are an easy answer. I'd want something more creative that someone's put more thought into.

Hello Phaedra, thanks for dropping! That is another good idea too, more creative it is, the more time and time the guy spent into it! Thanks for dropping!

Flowers are really important. Even if she says not to bring them. I told my bf not to waste money on flowers anymore, and was very disappointed when he stopped. But now and then he will pick some and they smell and look so beautiful, it makes me so happy!

I agree, it doesn't mean our guy will buy us the expensive one! The thought of giving their girl no matter if it's just from the garden is already very touching! Thanks for sharing kykidd!

I think flowers are lovely but they shouldn't be important to a relationship otherwise the feelings between the two people appear to depend on gifts when love should be entirely unconditional. I think it is always nice to demonstrate mutual feelings in courtship in all kinds of ways, but it shouldn't just be around giving flowers.
However, it is always lovely to receive flowers unexpectedly, especially as a surprise, and they do brighten up a space wonderfully. :o)

Hello MsCYPRAH,
Thanks for sharing, I agree with you, when it is done daily, it's like it's already an obligation, not as exciting as we want to be plus true that in any relationship,gifts are not the basis, they just add excitement!

I do love flowers, but I do prefer to see them in a garden or an outside tub so that they can keep growing and living. Plus, I have terrible hayfever and so it is hard sometimes for me to have flowers in the house, so it was a bit hard for a man to court me and bring me flowers!!

for me it was not that important because my wife has asthma and she is allergic with flowers. she loves flowers but the asthma will attack so i would rather give her something that will not make her sick. during courtship i gave her once only then when she informed me about her asthma i didnt buy her flowers anymore. the second on i bought her long stem roses that i gave her when she came home from work abroad and i made sure that the roses are sealed in a box.
