Valentines debrief

[Darth Somethingorother]

A lot of women like pretty expensive flowers that will fade over a period of time, but the love of the man that bought them, will hopefully last a life time.

 

It's the thought that counts.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

So artificial flowers would be fine, then?

 

Or is the thought in question simply to spend money?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Plastic is cheap.

 

You sacrificed your hard earned money by buying real flowers, for someone you love.

 

If a man bought me plastic flowers, he would be kicked out the door with his flowers.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Out of curiosity; what would you do if a man gave you a bunch of wild flowers?

she wouldn't know. It's the thought of spending money that counts. If she thinks you forked over 100$ on flowers, you are clear, even if you picked them off the side of the road.

[Darth Somethingorother]

I don't know many shops that sell bunches of say, wild primroses, bluebells and crocuses. But then, I don't frequent florists, lol. I meant a really obviousely wild bunch, which I personally would think of as very romantic.

Me too.

 

But remember, it's the thought of the guy spending money that counts

 

So no matter where you get the flowers, make sure she thinks you paid a heavy price for them. Like a kidney or something. Only then, will she know you love her.

So the conversation might go:

 

"You cheapskate! They're wild flowers!"

"Cheap? While I was picking them, a wasp bit my finger off! Viscious bastards, wasps."

 

?

[Dark_Raven]

Wild flowers are ok. I do not find something fake to be appropriate as a gift on Valentines Day.

lolll

 

It's the gift that keeps on giving!

[Rosbjerg]

how come every holiday turns into an excuse for consumerism these days ...

How about we just go the whole nine yards and declare every day for "big spender day" .. might as well accept defeat!

Or make a special day for not buying anything and then sell things that allow you to spend that day without buying anything

[Walsingham]

Indeed. It's like one of those displays that male animals make to prove they can build a nest or something. 'Look at me, I can arrange and afford a whole day of attention'.

 

Speaking of flowers, as luck would have it I ran into the only bunch of flowers I've ever seen that looked like they were worth the effort. A dozen of the most gorgeous red roses. They were like whatsitthingy ideals of roses. Platonic. But even then they were already fading when I saw them last night.

 

On the other hand, maybe flowers are a good thing. They are impermanent, but then love can be too. Best enjoy it while you can.

 

My girlfriend actually wrote a poem about how much she loves me, after I did such a good job. This is the equivalent of a normal women going out and killing a yak for you with her bare hands.

[astr0creep]

What you could is you get her the most expensive bouquet of the most gorgeous flowers you can find/afford.

 

And then you tell her :

 

"These are the most expensive bouquet of the most gorgeous flowers I could find/afford. Take good care of them because when they fade, so does our relationship."

[Dyan]

All she said was "hey!"

 

And then "what if i dry them, does that count?" when I told/showed her the source of the comment. <_<

[Surreptishus]

Flowers fade and then you get new ones, so it takes effort to have nice flowers for any length of time. Like a relationship, both parties have to be dedicated for it to be successful

 

...or some crap.

[Silvershadow]

My bf gave me diamond earrings.

 

Yeah, I was pretty shocked.

[Surreptishus]

Yep, you are soo getting married.

[Dark Moth]

How sweet.

[Walsingham]

In my opinion if you are going to give jewelry, make it yourself. It's really not so hard, and provided you work in silver and semi-precious stones, it's not so expensive.

 

What? I can't be creative? :">

[Surreptishus]

Whateever you do, don't buy it from argos or h.samuel.

[astr0creep]

Are there any fields of wild diamonds I could pick?

[Silvershadow]

Yep, you are soo getting married.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

How did I know you were gonna say that?

[Rayth]

Because it's true?

[Silvershadow]

Actually, more because Surreptishus has been saying that for the past six months.

[Blank]

Actually, more because Surreptishus has been saying that for the past six months.

That's because he is jealous

Actually it's because I crept into his house in the night, and re-arranged some of his neurons into a moebius strip. You just wait and see what'll happen if he ever tries to make a paper aeroplane while drinking Dr Pepper.
