what did you do wrong? Umm i was at her friends party and i decided to a mates and watch the rugby at 10:30pm and she thought that was bad of me, or something. How much is a bunch of random flowers @ a florist? last edited by Alt_F4 at 20:32:02 07/Oct/07 |

First off. Don't be a pussy whipped chump. If you don't believe you did something wrong then you can't possibly be sorry for it. If you are, for some strange reasons, truly sorry for it. 'a bunch of random flowers' that you want to get out as cheaply as possible, is a really piss poor apology and an insult. |

second the above. Don't buy flowers just because you think you should buy flowers. If you aren't sorry don't apologise. if you are sorry that she is upset but still feel you had every right to do what you did, just tell her that.
Don't make a rod for your back |

Clearly if she has a dummy spit about you going to the rugby then it's not going to work out in the long run.. therefore no point in wasting money on flowers.

you can get some decent ones from a florist.
about 40 bucks will do it. thats reasonable and they look pretty good as far as flowers go. always my last minute birthday prese for my female friends if i havent got around to getting a prese. you cant go wrong with flowers in any situation. even if she doesnt "forgive" you strait away when shes alone next time she will when she looks at them again and go all goooey. |

Grow your own flowers, that way you actually put time and effort into it and it is actually worth something..

There's this thing that we learn about in psychology (and I'm not pretending only ppl who do psych know about it) and it helps to explain why some people engage in certain behaviours.
Reinforcement - increases the likelihood that a person will engage in a behaviour in a future. For example, if you buy her flowers because she whinged that you went to the rugby, you are rewarding her for being a bitch. That is "positive reinforcement": you're ADDING something to the situation to REWARD her behaviour. Let's say now that instead of buying her flowers you just decide that next time you're with her you won't ditch her given the same circumstances. This would be an example "negative reinforcement": you're REMOVING something from the situation to REWARD her behaviour. Either way, these options will make her more likely to complain about you going to watch the rugby next time you do it, which is something that you should be able to do in a relationship, provided you weren't being a jerk about it. |

what girl wouldn't appreciate flowers?! she might say she doesn't expect flowers or whatever, but as if she'd ever turn them down. but that said, buying flowers is a cheap apology. had an ex bf who always bought me flowers when he was a dick, huge insult really thinking that a bunch of flowers was going to make up for him asking me for permission to mack on some other chic! flowers are best when bought for no reason... better to just take her somewhere or do something she likes

Well I'm a girl (ok an old one) and I hate flowers too. I would rather be given something that doesn't wilt and die after 2 days in the hot weather. In fact, I would rather not be given anything... (Furry Bear take note for our Wedding Anniversary next week)
If you don't believe that you have done anything wrong, then maybe it would be better for you to actually just be honest with her about why you did what you did and maybe it would make for a better relationship. mmmm Maybe I should talk to my psych at my next appointment as to why I dont like flowers!!!!! |

You missed the fact that she doesn't deserve an apology.

Just go out and pick some, geez.
BTW flowers suck, I went out and picked the last chick a MASSIVE amanita muscaria (google it). She didn't really appreciate it much, but I genuinely thought it was a cool idea. I don't get women, since when does paying some dork at coles on your way home from work more meaningful/romantic then going out yourself and sourcing something really interesting from the wild.

Hay Chub, instead of stealing the flowers, how about growing your own. Even more effort then.
I've recently learnt how to graft plants to each other. I'm growing a tomato/eggplant tree.. Gunna give it away to someone who likes tomato AND eggplant. Do the same for flowers, how cool would it be to give a grafted plant with several different flowers (provided there in the same family they should graft wooo) |
