Valentines this year is on a week day.....

I'm thinking of sending my girlfriend flowers to her work. She works in a large open plan office. Is this a nice gesture or something that will make her embarrassed/awkward?

I wasnt thinking a massive bunch of flowers just something simple.

Thoughts please?

    Guess it depends on how she feels about her co-workers. Do they bug her? Does she dread having to talk to them about anything non-work related? I've asked my husband NOT to ever send me flowers at work again because I DON'T want to deal with them any more than I have to.

    She quite likes the team she works in and next to. I know there is one girl she doesnt get on with well buts its only one person.

    Hmmm..... Not sure what to do!

    Personally I'd love that. She might feel a little embarrassed but she'll also feel so special. It's little things like that, that I think mean a lot. Go for it : )

    Definitely send them! It is embarrassing but a good kind.

    I would hate that. None of us know your girlfriend so you're better off asking one of her friends/mum/sister etc instead of asking a bunch a strangers.

    Do it, but on practical note, chose an arrangement that comes in a vase. Keeping flowers in the toilet sink until home time is somewhat unglamorous!

    I think she will love it. I would.
    just make sure they have a vase or come in one of those packets with water that stand so they wont dry out and wilt over the day!
    And i think your idea of simple especially if you know of a flower she likes is great!
    maybe a scented bunch.
    Good luck and I hope she loves them!

    One year my husbad sent me flowers and a stuffed bear. I was a little embarressed and my co-workers teased me all but I smiled the whole rest of the day! I thought it was a romantic thing to do but I cant speak for your girlfriend.

    I wouldn't be embarrassed at all! It would make me feel special. Can't imagine why anyone would feel embarrassed to get flowers in the workplace?!?

    Do it. Simple & romantic. She will love it! The only embarrassment she'll get will be a good type of embarrassment! :smile:
