just wondering. Do Nigerian babes appreciate flowers?
I have heard of instances where some guy sent his babe some flowers and she just threw the 'thing' at him and exclaimed, 'You spent all that on this rubbish. why didn't you just get me recharge card instead'.
Let us share other experiences on this so we will know if our ladies actually appreciate flowers.

@all, i think the take away from this thread is, don't give your girl friend flowers as a gift , it's not appreciated by naija babes??? (apologies to any babe who appreciates flowers) if you are inclined to give flowers, wait till you have committed to a woman (probably in marriage) and there's no doubt in her mind about your ability to give her gifts and for heaven's sake, buy real flowers!!! don't buy all those artificial flowers they sell at gift shops  , the value of giving flowers is first the symbolism and second, the fragrance. artificial flowers have no smell so the meaning is lost on a woman if you must give your girl friend flowers by force, add the flower to the 'gift' to make a single package |

No baby! That Benjamin pales in comparison to that "Pound". Say it loud! "Pound" and feel your heart "Pound"! What is the exchange rate again? Get me some "Pounds" and we can talk "things over"! I am so glad you understand! Only send us flowers to impress our "oyinbo" colleagues---on Valentine's day or Mother's day. We usually like to leave those flowers at work too. |

Come on sweetie, un-seal those lips! Depends on what? depends on the giver and reciever. don't give a babe that you are just about to date a flower because she would RUN. you can give your wife a flower(better if its real live ones) don't give a babe a flower when recharge card is readily available. don't give a girl that you desperately just WANT for sex flowers. the list is endless jare |

I had some flowers delivered to this girl my cousin introduced me to here in the States on her birthday! The funniest thing is that she's this American-wannabe type of naija girl so I thought flowers will mean something to her but was wrong. The next day I got off the plane and with her still at work had her room mate pick me up. We got to the house and guess where the flowers are? the trash can in the batroom! I felt very bad cux it was a wasted effort and money, I wasted my time calling different flower shop to schedule Sunday delivery and yet it all went in the trash! so guys if you ask me I'll say most of our naija sisters don't value it and please and please don't even bother to buy flowers if you don't know anything about flowers! sending or giving the wrong flowers or colour is like sending a Congratulations card to someone that lost a loved one!

Ifyalways: point of correction. You can send/give flowers to someone you're about to date or have never even met as long as its the right flowers! and ofcox if she doesn't know anything about flowers herself then the whole thing will read different meaning cux she'll run like you said or might think you're already saying "I Love You" without knowing her!

I can see some girls here are really local. I feel buying a flower to a girl is just simply romantic and it show you really
love them or feel for them. A guy that can afford to buy you a flower, can also afford to buy you a gift too.
A cheap guy wouln't even buy you a flower.

What does been local have to do with flowers , gosh don't understand what kind of mentality some of this Naija guys have , lol so have you thought of giving a flower to a girl when you were in Naija, abi isn't when they gave you a free visa to the US that you realized flower = Romance.
Lmfao village boy like you have the audacity to call the ladies local
