Bring your lady some flowers for no reason sometime. It doesn't need to be anything expensive. I promise you, it will make her day, and most likely YOUR evening! ;)

    thats a lie. no girl will get mad and give you the ***** eye when she sees flowers that you got her!

    I once told my fiance that " I would rather have the cash so don't waste it on flowers!" I didn't mean that I would NEVER want flowers, but now I haven't gotten flowers... or cash haha but I just meant I didn't want flowers every week!

    Nothing sexier than a guy that cooks dinner especially for you, just because. Honestly, it's just about doing something unexpected on a random night that is not a holiday, birthday or anniversary. (This goes for women too)

    To be honest, I (bold and emphasized) don't even really like getting flowers! Unless it has been a REALLY long time. (And it has.) It's more about the sentiment than it is the flowers. It's just that flowers typically last a week and when I head down the stairs and see fresh flowers from my guy in open view, it brings a smile to my face every time.

    And YES, it goes BOTH ways. Guys deserve surprises too, although most cases, they would order something different from the catalog.

    Friday Presents... For the last 15 years I have randomly brought home little gifts for my wife on a Friday. I do this probably once a month, and they are almost always under $20 and ALWAYS something frivolous.

    Remember the age old adage... Happy Wife, Happy Life

    That being said, I think it's time for a shopping trip.

    That's freaking awesome. Lol. I'm all about random gifts, just because you saw it and thought of them. I'm also the weirdo that starts buying birthday presents months in advance as I see things that resonate for that person. :tongue:

    smiley-laughing017.gifHA HA HA!! You are SOOO funny!!! The last time I bought flowers for my wife, she chewed me out for spending the money! smiley-rolleyes009.gif

    I have women pretty much figured out. I call it Ted's Law in Dealing with the Opposite Sex.
    1. You (The male) can NOT win.
    2. You (The male) do have to play.
    3. The rules WILL change to suit the game.
    4. The reasons for this are still somewhat unclear, the most promising theory on causation of the order of relationship status is that the female has a microchip with mood altering programming embedded in her at some point in life. Conventional thought is that it coincides with adolescence, but this has not been definitively proven.
    5. When a precious metal; most commonly in conjunction with a precious stone, is applied to the 4th digit of the left hand, the microchip is then activated. Mood is from this point altered, often irrevocably.
    6. The female is free to behave in any manner she wishes, and exercises total control of access to the nuclear storehouse. smiley-rolleyes005.gif
    6a, All men are considered Third World Countries and women alone have coveted "Nuclear Technology"
    Any variances or questions regarding the application of this law will be referred to rule #1.


    That's pretty much where my science has taken me....

    Oh man, I totally agree...just something sweet and thoughtful every now and then. I bring him Tim Horton's coffee every time I come home from the gym...I think that's pretty sweet of me.

    I don't like flowers. But I would appreciate it, I am sure.

    On another note. In MY opinion, you should never bring flowers on a first date. You don't even know if you really LIKE her/each other at that point and it comes off as very insincere. Bring them on the SECOND date to show how much you appreciated the first. Or don't, and just get her really drunk. I don't really care, tt was just a fleeting thought.

    I used to live it when my ex would clean my car. Not sure why it was such a big deal in retrospect, not like he cleaned any things else. Or cooked, or did laundry, or any of the shopping. Yeah, he for of easy cleaning my car a few times a year. Hmph!

    Still made me happy at the time.

    One year for Mother's Day, my dad brought home a bunny for my mom - said flowers would only last a week, and she could keep the bunny for years. He was so cute. A week later, a cat ate him. Dad said, "Shoulda just got the flowers."


    One of the sweetest things my husband ever brought me was an old window - 1930s? - from a building he remodelled on one of the Pribilof Islands. Everyone thought he was crazy because two panes are broken out and it's permanently dirty. And I love it!

    Also, an antique scale - which he said went against his better judgement, but I like it, too; an old glass insulator from a jobsite; and he built me a plant bench from some old wood in the back yard.

    Basically, he figured out if it looks worn out and useless to him, I'll love it. He has learned what I like and caters to that.

    LOL!! Guys make you want to be a lesbian...but you wouldn't date someone as crazy and emotional as yourself =p.

    And you guys WONDER why we haven't a freaking clue how to behave?!

    Sorry lol, not poking fun...I've seen a lot of your posts and enjoy them, but that struck me as borderline hilarious =D.
