is it lame for a girl to buy a guy flowers and chocolate
 
I did this for my partner yesterday, and when I got to his work to give them to him, another of his workmates was all smiley and saying he wished HE would get something like that


is it really that weird?

am I just a nerd/romantic?


I usually bake a cake or special food once a fortnight or so and buy random things when I see them.. I used to draw pictures but havent really had time for that lately.

Hell no it's not wierd. It's as cool as fuck.

shentov 10.31.2008 12:56 AM

what? you are asking a bunch if unknown people on thae internetz if this or that is lame to do? now that's lame!
[hey i'm 100% kidding.]
as for the original subject, no, i don't think it's a bad thing to get a close person this kind of things. he don't have to be gay and shit. these are nice things. i'd like to get 'em from someone i know/love.

I didnt think it'd make him gay by giving him flowers and choc, thats funny though.

"here you go! now you're gay"

i'm sure he was okay with it!

greedrex 10.31.2008 03:21 AM

why would it be? It's nice indeed. unless you're dating a dumbfuck who listens to Limp Biscuit, cuz he would think it's an isult and beat the hell out of yr sorry face.

_slavo_ 10.31.2008 03:54 AM

Some of us are, yes. Especially works when stressed at work.

atsonicpark 10.31.2008 04:17 AM

Lamont Cranston 10.31.2008 04:54 AM

_slavo_ - watch out for this, as what al shabb is really gonna send you is a a pack of Bratwurst and some German porn. He just can't help himself, he really can't.

al shabbray 10.31.2008 07:14 AM

hahahaa, and for the exotic flavour some weisswurst, blutwurst...
for decoration a bunch of coocoo-clocks, hrhrhr
and a bavarian leather pant

shentov 10.31.2008 08:18 AM

the flowers were for me or for slavo?
bulgaria vs. slovakia?

!@#$%! 10.31.2008 08:20 AM

of course it's not lame to buy flowers and chocolate, it's very sweet-- but it's lame to ask for reassurance on the interwebs

ha ha ha ha ha ha.



(the closest ive been to that is to wash with almond soap, which smells yummy, but i dont find myself at appetizing at all).

tesla69 10.31.2008 09:04 AM

Were the flowers yellow and pink?

tesla69 10.31.2008 09:05 AM

Were the chocolates high quality?

SuchFriendsAreDangerous 10.31.2008 10:54 AM

I smoke weed, I'm down. It is both a sweet and practical gesture.

one of my favourite shower gels is a lush one called sonic death monkey, its chocolate, coffee, lime juice and hemp oil.. it doesnt make me want to eat it but it smells pretty awesome.

i have given flowers before to a boy. i m wondering about the chocolate. if boys are that fond of chocolates as we are.


he doesnt eat a lot of chocolate, neither do I really, but we both enjoy really nice chocolate occasionally.. they were little hand made ones, i had to choose them it was pretty cute.. I felt kind of funny looking at them all choosing them trying to figure out what to pick.

why? Im not really asking for reassurance, because I already did it./ I was just asking out of curiousity..

Yes i have used the chocolate wash. It was shampoo and body wash, which meant my entire body smelled like rich chocolate.

It was amazing. Until I tasted it.

cars_willkillyou 11.01.2008 01:27 PM

As far as the original question is concerned, I think everyone agrees that there is nothing wrong/weird with that.

I like to buy things (when I can afford to do so) for my girlfriend (when I have one), but random things. I like to make things, so usually I find something that gives me an idea, and get it. Then work on it at my leisure. I found a nice bike frame that was abandoned, and needed restoration. So I was in the process of restoring it for my girlfriend at the time who didnt have a bicycle, and I kept telling her how she needed to get one. Unfortunately her actions and words caused me to stop talking to her before i completed the project. So I sold the bike for like 50 bucks and bought some groceries.

The bitch still has my iPod though.

Anyway, I dont know why more women dont do this. I like women who are self-confident, but also straight-forward. I dont think there is anything wrong with a girl calling a guy, making the first move, asking a guy out, whatever.

Hehe.

Yeah, I think it's cool. I mean, if we send guys heart shaped Valentines, then why not the whole fancy deal?

I would have little stars and lovehearts above my head if my boy made me a bike. That is so gorgeous. hand made anything on a regular basis is awesome.

cars_willkillyou 11.03.2008 01:47 AM

yeah, i thought it was a good idea too. Too bad she was a shit cunt.

uhler 11.03.2008 01:57 AM

i always wished on a non valentines day or birthday that a girlfriend or any girl would buy me flowers and chocolate (well now that i'm vegan again it has to be dark). so, of course, i think it's an awesome thing that you did that.

pbradley 11.03.2008 02:09 AM

... followed by strap-on sex later that night?

discussing my sexual tastes has always brought on hate towards me at this forum, so I dont do it anymore.

i don't remember any hate, but it might have been before my time here.

i never discuss something personal like that, even not to my closet friends. unless it's a girlfriend.

Post-feminist straight males would prefer nuns of their inaccessible lusts? If I may, I would like to direct your attention to Glice's sig.

I have no idea what the problem was, mostly it was just a scapegoat for people to hate me for something irrelevant.

ihateyouth 11.03.2008 05:32 PM

I have and it's a waste of money. They'd rather get condoms.
