how important are flowers to you? how important it is for you to receive flowers from your special someone....

i love flowers and for me receiving flowers makes me feel special, and its important to me. i seldom receive flowers from my husband... i am not the one to tell him, will you buy me flowers so i can receive some, although i have spoken a few times, when i die, the flowers you're gonna put on my coffin, on my grave will be of no use, so better not do it. i wont be able to smell it, or see how beautiful it was, so better give one to the living than to the dead.

to other woman out there, some things are more important to them, but to me, receiving flowers is important, it is a part of being a woman, it makes me feel special. it doesn't have to be expensive bouquets, picked flowers from the garden will be enough to make my day.

and to all guys whoa re going to read this, what is your take on giving flowers to your special someone?

Hi there Jayrene!

I am not really into flowers but getting some makes me feel beautiful and appreciated. I love receiving gifts and they don't have to be really expensive at all. As long as the man exerted effort on it and the gift is well-thought of, it will be very much appreciated.


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  8 months ago

well, consider yourself lucky... you wont be making a fuss about not receiving flowers.. lol.

i have a sweet tooth, but to choose between flowers and chocolates as a gift, i would definitely choose the flowers. if i am told that it is a waste of money because it cant be eaten like chocolates, then i would reply "so im gonna make flower candies out of it".. lol

kidding aside, yes it's the thought that counts, i agree. i am just so into it, i just love them.

Flowers play a significant role in one's life. That is why flowers are so expensive. Well, giving flowers to the special someone is like telling them you really care, because flowers are really hard to take care. Presenting someone a flower for me means, I care so much. Hehehe.

Well, that is just for me.

well i just wish my husband would be able to read your response... this may change his mind... but sadly, he is not into social networking.. lol.

I love flowers too and especially when my boyfriend gives me when I least expect it. He always brings a smile to my face. I just like that with the flowers.


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  6 months ago

it would have done the same thing to me also, if my partner will give me some flowers out of the blue... it will definitely bring a smile to my face... but he's just not the flower giving kind of guy, too bad for me... sad

I like flowers too, but a single flower means just as much. I don't need the $50 roses, one daisy is just as good. The big bouquets I think are a waste of money.


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  6 months ago

for me, any kind of flower will do, it may be single, bouquet or hand picked, it doesn't necessarily have to be expensive too...

Flowers are important and receiving them from your husband or boyfriend makes you feel special and that he truly does like you. I barely ever receive flowers and i would like to receive them more, but now i know they aren't going to be showing up at all because we can't go out buying a lot right now because we need to be saving money to fix a car we have and that is really more important anyways. Receiving flowers makes me feel special inside and that i know my rest of the day is going to go great, but it's ok if i don't receive them i still love him and that;s ok.


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  6 months ago

that is how i feel with flowers also... any kind will do, it doesnt have to be expensive...

i honestly don't like flowers unless somebody gives me the plant.
say,if it's roses,i'd prefer a rose bush,then i can put it in my yard,and have a living reminder.
cut flowers,no.having 12 lil corpses at the end of the week to me,doesn't sound like love. lol


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  8 months ago

i love you for that, in fact your so different opinion stand out among the rest... lol.

12 lil corpses eh? lol... that really made me laugh, i never thought of it like that.

we all have our different views in life... after a week of appreciation when that flowers turned to corpses, it goes to show they have done their part in the cycle of life, they were appreciated, they have made somebody happy, and feel loved. im such a romantic "hope-fool"...


myLot reputation of 99/100. scarlet_woman (8800)   ranked 267 out of 2,832 in woman  8 months ago

LOL yea,that's true.all in how you look at it,i guess. happy

Honestly I don't really care for flowers all that much. Sure they are pretty and they smell nice, but they are so short-lived. One guy I dated gave me flowers all the time, and I used to dry them out and turn them into potpurri. Other than that, I found no real use for them. The first thing I think when a guy brings me flowers is, "What did you do?" lol. Negative I guess.


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  6 months ago

lol ...

well, each one of us have different likes and dislikes... but if someone would give me flowers now, i would definitely try that one thing you mentioned here, 'dry them out and turn them into potpurri'... that is really a wonderful idea which i will do, that is if i'll receive flowers... lol

We have the same thoughts on flowers. Like you I feel so special receiving flowers on my birthday or any other occasions. In one of my sites, my page layout is red roses. My friends know I love flowers that they send me almost everyday with flowers graphics in my comment section to my delight that I have to visit my page everyday just to see the flowers coming. Once they send me roses, I will thank them with the note, I love roses, the next time all I see are roses around. Isn't that great? My late husband was not used of giving me flowers before but when we got married and learned I love flowers, he would send me yellow roses during our anniversaries. I was so happy then, it's alright if no other gifts. When he died though I didn't wish for it bulks of flowers flooded his wake that really in someway lessened my grief as I saw the beautiful flowers around. Though I'm in sorrow my heart felt joy with the expression of our friends and relatives love for my husband and the family. When I go to the mall, I would go to the flower section. When I visit a house, I will look for the flower garden. When I go to the churches, after praying, I'm looking for the flower arrangement or flowers offerred. That's how flowers are important to me. When someone died, I feel so sorry if I could not give flowers and when the time comes for me to leave this world, I want flowers as well.

When my husband and I first got together, he told me "flowers die, why would I give them to show you how much you mean to me" I love flowers, so for the Easter that I was pregnant with our son he bought me a rose bush, they don't die as easily as cut flowers. Well, they still died. I was VERY pregnant and can't bend my knees or anything like that to look after my rose bush. Since then every time I mention that I want flowers he reminds me of the rose bush I killed.

Here's the best part. This year for Valentine's day I got 1 flower, not from my husband but a co-worker. She had bought flowers to put out on the tables at the restaurant that we work at. At the end of the night she sent a flower home with each one of us that had been working.


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  6 months ago

lol@reminds me of the rose bush I killed... well he should have been more considerate, you were'nt able to take care of it very well because of your condition, he should have been the one taking care of it... but anyway, you are still fortunate that you have received a flower last valentine's day, i did not... the day just passed like an ordinary day... doh

in my 5yr relationship he never bring me flowers. because i have told him not to, im not into it. but thinking about it why the hell did i dislike flowers? maybe because i just think that guys do that because of traditions. but as i mature more, i realize guys meant whatever actions they do. so i like to recieve flowers now. i want to feel what its like to recieve it from someone really speacial. but i guess im too late now.=(


myLot reputation of 91/100. jayrene (1885)   ranked 53 out of 2,832 in woman  6 months ago

i think it is not yet too late... maybe you could tell your partner to give you flowers sometimes, or give a hint that you now like receiving flowers. happy... you may be surprised when he comes home one day bringing flowers for you happy
