My boyfriend buys me gifts every now and again and so I want to do something for him. Do guys like flowers?

Some guys do, my boyfriend does, not always but I think he likes it that every once in a while I send him flowers. But you would have to know if he is one of those guys that would be mad about it.................

Some guys do but most of them don't. When buying a gift for a guy, food is always the best option. Find out what his favorite food is or sweet. If he likes a certain fruit, get something flavored like that fruit. Also, see what kind of music, movies and books he likes.

Yes.If they're gay (the guys, not the flowers).Seriously, most guys would rather have 12 longnecks than 12 long stems, anyday. Of course, if he drinks 12 longsnecks on any single day, he's an alcoholic, and you should probably dump him.

Some guys do. I myself like cactus plants. Less amount of upkeep and they last a long time too.

If he really loves you then he wont really care what gift you buy him...he would love it simply because it's from you Smile If he's a nice guy then he will appreciate the flowers.

Maybe but it depends how he perceives receiving flowers. He may think that it is sissy or something like that. I suggest you ask him if he minds otherwise forget it totally.

Guys like flowers. They will NEVER admit to it, but they do.

Depends on the guy. If he's really "macho" he might not appreciate it. Another idea is a cookie bouquet! You feel like you've sent him flowers, and you know the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, so everybody wins!

Absolutely!!!!! I actually gave my boyfriend flowers last month..It was just because...It will also bring attention to his co-workers at the job..That's when he gets noticed and is also notifying the othe women that he is taken and he is worth every penny

I doubt that flowers are on his "wish list", but still, I think any loving gesture should be appreciated.I wouldn't make it a regular thing, unless he REALLY likes it (in which case, he might be gay), but I do think it's a sweet thoughtful gesture, and he'll always remember you as the woman who gave him flowers.Go for it!

Personally, I buy my husband plants, because they last longer and aren't so feminine. He has two at his office and three in our home- and he loves them because they are from me!

I used to send my ex blue gerber daisies to his work on each of our one month aniversaries for our first year! It was a super special gesture between the two of us! Plus all the girls that he worked with in the ER would gather aroudn to read the special card I sent with and smell the flowers.. He'd always blush... and have a huge smile on his face all day (so his coworkers said..!) Plus he always loved me all up when he got home from work! I say go for it.. its not like he'll get pissed! Very Happy

it doesn't really matter whether or not he actually LIKES flowers, it's the appreciation and thought.
