[LadysMan10]

i've been in a relationship for the past 3 years and had recently broken up. i'm back on the prowl and i have a "first date" this weekend for the first time in a very long time.....i've been told flowers on a first date can be nice or can be very cheesy. i've been thinking about it and can't really come to a safe decision....can anyone advise??

one flower is a safe approach - I think she will appreciate it.

don't you go buying a dozen long stem red roses!!!!

wow...thanks for all the advise. within the 10 minutes i posted this thread, i've already had 4 PM's and two posts!!!

so far the majority says for a single flower. can anyone tell me what "babies breathe" is??

Depends on how you know this girl, how long you have been talking, whether you already have a rapport with her, have been talking to her on the phone for a while etc. If so, then a single rose may be fine.

Otherwise, it looks like you are trying too hard. And smacks of desperation. Definitely NO BOUQUET.

Babies breath is used as a filler and accent in Bouquets of flowers....it is a tiny whilte flower that is very full. Makes the presentation look better.

A single flower....would be my choice...but not a Red Rose.

we met about three weeks ago and have been chatting on the phone about 3times a week. we haven't been able to get together because of conflicting schedules.....but we're seeing eachother this weekend

i guess that brings up the next question.....what kind of flower and what colour???

Girls like white roses.. or maybe pink.. it is not as strong as a red one..

 

[TheIronLady]

Pink is nice....or go to a florist who has some not so common colours...I like white with pink around the edges.....

This shows you put a little thought and effort into it....

 

[LadysMan10]

thanks for all the help.....i'm off to concer the world!!

Girls like white roses...

Not all girls White is associated with death in some cultures e.g. Chinese.

Flowers on a first date is definitely a needy thing. Women appreciate it, but it would definitely make you seem like an ordinary chump. You don't want to give her an impression that you are easy and is already in love with her.

I know it is a tradition to give out flowers on a first date, so here is my recommendation: Don't give her those flowers immediately. Spend some time with her first and see what kind of person she is. Make sure she is worthy of those flowers. Then if she is worthy, then give her the flower at the end. (it would be better if someone else deliver the flowers for you)

When I met my ex gf, we hung out casually for about a week before going on our first official date. I gave her one rose and she seemed genuinely appreciative of the gesture. Of course, it also helped that she was already attracted to me - it took her two and a half hours to get ready and when I picked her up, she was dressed to the nines, looking like she had just stepped from the pages of a fashion magazine. When a girl goes through that much effort to look good, you know she's into you.

Give her a breakfast menu to fill out

You want to go with something different, go to a florist have them make a nice bouquet,something with tulips or lilies...NO roses..too common, you want her to feel special on the fist date...

So you suggest the satin handcuffs?

 

[papasmerf]

That would be my choice...

Making a mental note

Then take her to Timmies for a cup of coffee and a donut for the date.

IMO Just treat her like a Gentleman
