I got the flowers picked out, just not sure what to write since that part is always the toughest part for me. To give an idea what I am looking at she works in a office next to where I work part time and she knows I am interested in her, the thing is I only work there on the weekends and she works during the week so I never see her, I only met her because I filled in for a week. Her boss gave her my number and it's been almost a month and nothing yet so I am going for a bold move here so I need to write something with some moxy in it. Any suggestions? And here are the flowers, or orchids I plan on sending to her: http://ww4.1800flowers.com/product....rBeacon=true&gclid=COS0-s3O8pwCFQtN5QodvSSurQ EDIT: I think I got it: To brighten your day. Simple and sweet.
That'll work, keep it simple.......if you say too much it will appear desperate or stalkerish. If this doesn't work, THEN get stalkerish...lol
Maybe something like..... "Deepest sympathies for breaking your hand.....I can't think of any other reason why you haven't called".
"these are for you. if your not interested, please return quickly so i can send to someone else before they die completley." your welcome.
Nice, Sick. Here's the thing: if she's interested, this will be a sweet, romantic gesture you might one day tell your children about; but if she's not, you'll never hear back. Or, if she's like so many women today, she'll react badly. But don't let that stop you - goddamit, romance HAS TO survive this graceless age somehow! (special thanks to Don Henley!)
don't send flowers. Man up and ask her out. What the worst she can say no. Who cares and move on. At least you'll keep your $50 bucks. That what I'll do and if she likes you she not going to say no. Im not a fan of showering girls with gifts especially before I even go out with them.
Years ago that would be the way to go but I fear times have changed some, girls now have so many avenues to get to know a guy like cell phones, facebook and such they now can afford to take their time to get to know a guy before commiting to going out, the closest thing to getting a date from someone you don't know well is perhaps drinks at happy hour where you both meet someplace instead of you picking her up. I ain't got time for all that crap so I need something bold to get the job done.
I wouldn't change a thing Ronnie. Orchids with a nice quick "To brighten your day" is actually perfect. It will let her know you are indeed thinking about her without completely commiting anything. The next move is of course on her, but I imagine the next time you see her you will have a pretty good idea of where things are going to go Good luck and let us know hw it turns out
Well you're 44 according to your profile so I'm going to assume she is in your age range. She should be mature enough to handle it like an adult no matter what she thinks, and I think what you did/are going to do is perfect.
do you like me, check one for yes, check 2 for no. to whom it may concern: I wish to pollinate your garden buuuuuzzzzzzzz
Send two sets of flowers, The first says, "I got you these because I wanted to make you smile." The second says, "...And I got you these to make the other women around you jealous."
I think maybe some of the other posts may be right. Forget the flowers. Just go up to her work. Stand outside of a window that she can see out of and drop your pants. If she waves and smiles she's probably interested. If she calls the cops - forget her and move on.
to be honest, i agree. if she likes you, she rather you ask her out, then send her flowers. she wont know what to do once she receives them. she's not going to ask you out. girls like playing games, but hate making the bolder moves. she rather you just bring up a place to meet. she could care less about the flowers.
thats what he should put on the card. That or "Biological clock is ticking sweetheart tick, tick,tick."
I could tell you that what you think of as your personality is nothing but a collection of Vanity Fair articles. I could tell you your choice of sexual partners this evening was decided months ago by some account executive at Young & Rubicam. I could tell you that given a week to study your father and the ways in which he ignores you I could come up with a schtick you'd be helpless to resist. Helpless.
Actually she is 30, but I also don't look anything like 44, I have been told by many I could pass for at least ten years younger.
Well it's not really about age. I guess my point is you are both adults, and if she isn't adult enough to handle it well you wouldn't have wanted her anyway.
Yeah maybe I will throw this to my sisters and some of my lady friends to find out what might be the best approach, I mean lets face it, how many of us guys actually have a clue what these people of the opposite sex really want.
Dear Love, My life is empty when you're not with me. Knowing of your existence without your company has brought anguish to my soul. Accept this token of natures beauty, and meet me in the bathroom on friday afternoon for a quickie. Forever Yours, Ronnie Bass P.S. You're Welcome.
Oh alright, I suppose I can give you a serious answer. First of all don't take that she hasn't called you to necessarily mean much. A lot of women still want the guy to make the first move. To be honest, I think flowers are the wrong way to go for now. Because you are still dropping the ball into her lap to make direct contact. Without knowing if this is even feasible, the best thing to do would be for you to get up there to where she works while she's there. Bring her a cup of coffee and see if she can take a break. If she's interested she'll either take her break with you or let you know when she can take it.
Maybe if I sent her the flowers AND then approached her shortly after? Hmmm...what to do, what to do....
I swear I just got spammed with a text that said this - if you want to impress a girl, buy a ferrari.
Yup, send the flowers then approach her. Like late said, without showing up, you're putting her in the position to call you first.
OR, send her flowers anonymously. Then show up and ask "Hey, who sent you these beautiful flowers? I bet it's someone with a large expense account and an above-average sized *****."
Yeah, that did strike a cord with me as well. I can always have the florist call me the minute she gets them and I can there go there or just call her.
Maybe..I don't know. I guess my thinking is that if you send flowers then she may think that you're the kind of person (since she knows little to nothing about you) who will expect something in return. By the age of 30 most people have developed at least a small amount of cynicism. Whereas a cup of coffee is pretty innocuous. You walk in with some coffee and an offer to keep her company during her break at work and the exchange should be fairly pure and honest. Sometimes less is more, as they say. If the relationship develops you'll have plenty of opportunities to give her flowers Meanwhile, the best way to impress is to be sincere, easy going, considerate. Just show her who you are. I was just kidding earlier about dropping your pants, too. Good luck, brother.
