You know I never thought of that, even though we like going to the plant nurseries and buying flowers to plant. He buys me flowers that way especially since my birthday is at the right time of year as is mother's day.. He picks them out for himself too, not just for me. But I never thought of buying them for him, even though I know he like daisies..

Talking about flowers is really making me antsy for Spring! Been a long winter here!

We got another couple of inches of snow yesterday but today it is nice so hopefully it will melt the snow off the sidewalk. My daffodils are trying to come up. I hope they didn't freeze.

He is not fond of giving anything , maybe it is his nature . He just sent a message , very simple actually i am no satisfied but he said he is not a romantic person and i am the reversed. If he sent me one to two sentences messages in special occasions , i answer it with a one or two paragraphs of romantic things. He is not demonstrative and i am or he just don't loved me that much that is why it was hard for him to be romantic. A sad truth but it is the reality. Love is madness as i often said.

My husband has always remembered special days like Mother's Day, Birthday, Anniversary, etc. I am more the other way and don't really make a lot of holidays. It seems like opposites sure to attract. My sister is more of the type to remember all their special days while her husband can't seem to remember them.

Weird as it may seem, but I am not the type of woman who loves flowers. I don't know why, but I am just not fond of them. Although my husband has given me them in the past, but told him to not spend on them coz it just withers and he can spend the money on better things, not necessarily for me. And I do think that he would not appreciate that much, too if I would give him flowers. So, what I normally give him would be things that could be useful for him. DO I sound unromantic?

There are some kinds that I can not have in the same room. Mostly chrysanthemums.

I have never done this to my husband.
I am used to him giving me some when we were still sweethearts and early part of our marriage. But on the next years of marriage i told him to be practical. Instead of flowers i would like us to go to a more than ordinary restaurants.
Thus there were no more flower giving.

I was that way too but until the last year or two when I suggested what he could get for me he stopped. He is a contraian

I have not done it yet but have thought about doing this for quite a while. I was thinking of surprising my husband by sending him flowers to where he works. He is always so sweet to me & he's bought me flowers more then once, so I'd like to return the favor. I just didn't know how he would feel being on the receiving end this time rather then the one sending the flowers. I didn't want to embarrass him in front of his co-workers so that's why I've hesitated in sending them.

That is something to think about. Maybe a trial run at home first.

Wow, what a wonderful thought, it's not many women who would actually go out and buy flowers for their husbands! What sort of flowers did you get? I only ever got flowers given me once, and they were wilting carnations! Still I guess it's the thought that counts. I am sure your husband was pleased, I would be too!

I always loved getting things for my husband. But I always thought hand written notes be the best. He recently passed away and while going through his things I found every note I have ever written to him. Along with hand made fathers day and birthday cards. He kept everything I wrote a drew for him. It is always sweet to do things for your better half. If I was to get flowers I would get something we both enjoyed which would be lilies.

That is what I bought for him since it is Easter. Maybe I will get him something for Father's Day.

I'm usually surprising him with loads of tiny gifts, but not really flowers. He's kind of conservative in some ways, so he would feel a bit uncomfortable and would think that the man should give flowers to the woman in the relationship, and not the other way round. But, at the same time, I always get him snacks and biscuits and cakes and theatre tickets and stuff like that :).

My husband doesn't give me flowers and he thinks they are the most impractical gifts. So one time, I decided to give him a silver chain links bracelet for men. Just a simple, flat links. Well, it was not actually a good gift idea because he doesn't get to wear it often. But he always keep it with him in his bag.

Hmmmmmmm you are right that husband love his wife very much but in starting and give her so much importance by giving gifts and flowers but after sometimes he forget to do this. I think husband and wife love increase day by day and love doesn't need any type of fantasy like flower and gift but these things give happiness to your love one. You are right that you should ask your husband for flowers and some more gifts also.
