Do you give a girl flowers on a first date?

[Doctor Dbol]

I broke up with my girlfriend of 3 years last month. Now I have a date next week with a girl I met through a friend. After being with the same girl for 3 years I fell into a comfort zone but now I'm nervous as hell to go out next week.

Should I bring her some kind of gift like flowers or something when I pick her up? Or should I wait and see if things work out and get her something on the second date?

Damn I sound like a pussy but I'm really nervous.

bring her a clump of broccoli.

no....the crabs are usually enough





(dont btw....IMHO you'll scare her away)

NOT a dozen roses....and NOT red. Maybe a single rose....white, pink, or yellow. However from what little bit I know about women it is more of the gesture than the actual gift. Most would appreciate some hand picked flowers...rather than some commercial ones with the price tag.

As an added twist if you decide to give her a gift....give it at the END of the date. For 2 reasons. First by that time you will have a pretty good feel for her and how she would react to the gift, and also whether you want to give them to her. And 2...to quote a line from Finding Forrester...

"The secret to a woman's heart is an unexpected gift at an unexpected time"

No woman expects to get flowers at the end of the date.

Good Luck

What Hannibal said.


A small bouquet of wild flowers or something similar, fine.

A dozen roses, no, way over the top.

Great idea, vitamins AND fiber so she won't be constipated on your date!!

Hannibal..... u r da man.

Actually, may I make a suggestion?

Alstrameria Lillies are my favorites. They are very pretty (wild and exotic looking hehehehee) and are VERY INEXPENSIVE!

I was greeted w/a boquette of them on a date w/one of the sweetest men I had ever dated.... actually, he may have been the "one that got away". They are my favorites to this day because he was such a good man. This is the ONLY thing that I ever kept from my ex-husband.

Yeah, give her the flower but make her pay for it, that way she is recieving "Equal Treatment."

I never have that I can remember, ussually give them a pint of good whikey to get them good and lubed up. Maybe if I tried some flour I would get more dates with women that cook.
