I will never accept these ever again. Gas station flowers. The bouquet that was obviously the puniest, cheapest option. Dying ass flowers. I'll hand them right back. I'll say, "Who would want these?" while maintaining eye contact with the scrote and looking offended. I'll tell the delivery driver to return them. Shitty flowers are a neg.

Thank you for this warning. More women need to know shitty flowers, and, by extension, all shitty gifts, are a neg.
Shitty jewelry when he can afford better? Neg. Shitty food on a date when he can afford better? Neg.
Shitty hotel for the two of you when he can afford better? Neg.
If he brings you cheap smelly flowers then you already knows how he feels about you. I wanted to do something for Valentine for two ppl I briefly dated, I took one for dinner and I got a cheap looking smelly necklace, he said it's real gold but I doubbt it, And I bought one his favorite perfume nicely wrapped up and he brought smelly flowers I couldn't even see the color of the flower because it looks like it's dying. Even as a pickme a few years ago I felt my stomach turn, thankfully the trash took it self out when I said no to a kiss or sex. Even as a pickme I wanted to be engaged first before men have a taste of the wife privilige. I've learned my lesson cheap gifts means he doesn't respect you. I would be so happy if they grow their own roses in their yard to save money on flowers than give smelly hand me downs. Better a bracelet from Pandora on a discount than give a smelly necklace. I hate those type of men.
When you do something nice for a person he needs to respond like an echo he returns what you put out there.
Cheaper flowers often have lilies that are poisonous to cats. Ask how I know.
Gas station flowers dry up so fast. The least they can do is support local flower vendors and they can't even do that lol.
I don't accept cut flower bouquets anymore. Nice or not. You want to impress me? Bring me an actual plant (houseplants or outdoor perennials are acceptable). A variety that he already knows I love or one I don't have yet, so it shows he went to some effort.
I give amazing, thoughtful gifts to the people I care for. I do not accept less than I give.
You can just tell when a gift is thoughtless.
Shitty flowers, chocolates, and clothes are high up on my list. I have two windowsills with plants, so if the orchids aren't the giveaway of what to buy me, he really has not been paying attention. Second, chocolates. I like truffles and other candies. Don't assume what I like and definitely don't buy me that Russell Stover garbage. Do better. Third, clothes. Please don't buy me clothes unless I say something specific. Save us both the trouble and do not guess my size.
There are some gorgeous grocery store flowers and plants. Wegmans and Whole Foods are up there with the high quality. However, some not fresh things do tend not to get pulled out by the workers. About a year or so ago, I was doing a build your own bouquet to bring to my grandfather's grave. I watched this guy picking out the rattiest flowers. I stopped what I was doing and was in disbelief at how he wasn't even putting in the effort with anything colorful. I hope whoever this atrocity was for threw them back in his face!
Thank you for saying this 👏🏼 an ex of mine would give me a SINGLE rose for Valentine’s, birthday’s, etc. And he acted like it was a 100 flower bouquet to the point that one time he suggested that I preserve the single fucking rose. 💀
I love flowers but I hate every time I’ve received flowers. Every single time, a man has fucking ruined it by telling me how it was soooo hard to get them or how expensive they were or just generally getting me worst flowers imaginable (already wilted).
Here’s to only beautiful 100+ rose bouquets in our future 🌹
