I've been dating this girl for about a month. Everything has been going great. We're a good match for each other. I'm happy being with her and vice versa. I was thinking about getting her a rose or another flower and brining up to her job tomorrow. Do you think thats a good idea?

Yes. If she's a girl who likes flowers.

Sounds good :D

But some girls think flowers are over-rated. So watch out for that.

Go for it, you'll find out if she digs it or not. Post her reaction.

add a note or something more personalized; serenade her or something!
that sort of personal additive will help the cliche transcend into something unforgettable. wink wink

Definitely agree! If you get her flowers it doesn't show much thought. But if you personalize it to something that she wouldn't think of. Then it'll be 10x better, so be creative.

I know one time I thought it'd be cute to write my girlfriend a few love notes. So I hid the first one in her cigarette box, because she smokes as soon as she wakes. The next in her duffel bag, for when she gets dressed. And then a third on her windshield, like a parking ticket.

It's little things like this that are fun and keep things special.

I added a note. Nothing over the top. I gave it to her. My timing could've been better. She was at work, and it was seriously crowded. She looked sort of mad before and after I gave them to her. I found out she wasn't mad at me. She loved my gift. She said it made her day. I was cheesed out for the rest of the night when she told me that.

Sorry it didn't go as well as you thought. To make you feel better I'll tell you a rather embarrassing/hurtful story.:

On valentines day years ago, must have been freshmen year. I had my little McJob going on and I saved up some money to get my, at the time, girlfriend roses. I planned it out so when she would drop by I would meet her out at the car. Well I walked out to her with a bear and roses. Her response I'll never forget. She let out a long exaggerated sigh and said "Not flowers! I already got these today." I asked her who gave her flowers and she replied that it was nobody. And yes I found out that she was cheating on me.

That was the very first time I gave a girl flowers and I'll always remember it. So don't feel bad that it wasn't the response that you were looking for. Women are weird like that....And so are men. We're all just f*cking weird.
