Why Is It That Some Nigerian Girls Don't Like Flower Gifts? by Omicron007(op): 5:41pm On Nov 04, 2021
Fellows,

A quick one wink
One of my friends celebrated her birthday recently.
I was lost in thoughts over what to buy for her.
So I surfed the internet and I saw a lot of suggestions.

I ended up getting a flower for her. I ordered the flower on an online flower shop and it was delivered to me.

On her birthday, I took the flower and went to her place. I presented it to her during the little birthday bash she organised.

To my utmost surprise, she and her friends looked at me with contempt. She was not happy I got the flower. It was glaring on her face.




I have seen a lot of movies where flowers are presented to girls and they are very happy.

Why is it that some Nigerian girls don't value the gift of flowers?

I spent NGN 7,500 to get the flower!

Not every women, even in the movies you watch, like flowers for a gift. And a bigger problem here is in your assumption that movies accurately portray real life.. undecided

Indian girls cannot reject flowers especially red ones, because they actually believe red flowers is a sign of true love and romance. Which Nigerian girl will collect flower as a gift? Girls are actually materialistic and money consious.

Yeah, i really love your idea, presentation of flowers show true love or affection. But she should had at least collected it To just show appreciation...

You should have given her 5k instead and sprayed the 2500 balance on her in 100 naira notes

Then tell her to buy flowers with the 5k

It's the most romantic gesture ever when it's coming from someone you love.

A boyfriend, fiancé, husband...

The intentionality is beautiful...

The princessy feeling...

But from anyone else... Please keep it. undecided Feels inappropriate.

So a friend giving you flowers on an occasion such as graduation or award celebration is pointless?, undecided

Flowers are not really useful as a birthday gift. Flowers ought to be paired with something else, like a teddy, jewelry etc. not a standalone gift. Besides, I have severe allergies to pollen.
