    Roses

    I met a girl some day ...

    Now i am wondering if it's good idea to send her flower at work.

    I was planning to send lot of roses with the following message:

    I don't want to set the world on fire,
    I just want to start a flame in your heart!

    Your husband


    My question is, is this your husband appropriate. I consider it to be sort of trick giving her impression that i am serious guy. Maybe i am just silly?

    Please advice, thank you so much!

    how well do you know her, ''I met a girl someday'' sounds pretty ambiguous.....

    Roses

    Actually i don't know her at all. She works in an institution and i did notice her there. It happened a few days ago but, since than i am often thinking of her.
    I've seen her only three times in my life.

    Look I am not into all that love from afar-romantic-anonymous stuff, but I think If you want to send her the flowers, do, but a) do not sign it from ''your husband'' and b) make sure you introduce yourself first, or you will seem like a stalker....or worse, a crazy infatuated stranger!

    Well i am not too brave to introduce myself just like that. I need to go in this institution the next week and ... omg this becomes harder than i thought.

    How about sending only the flowers plus the message with the last part omitted?

    Any other ideas are welcome.

    send the flowers, then introduce yourself a day or 2 after.

    Omg. hahahah. sorry. But you are setting up yourself to be laughed at or she will think you are obsessed with her thus she will avoid you. You shouldn't gift someone who you haven't even talked to. I'm sure you are capable of introducing yourself when you have the guts to make such a grand gesture. Slow down. Introduce yourself, talk to her, ask her out on a first date, then if everything goes well, you can give her flowers.

    Ok probably my story sounds funny to most of you but, i strongly disagree that sending flowers can be considered as an obsession.

    Rather i would consider it like a small attention, gesture etc.

    However thank you so much for your opinion. It is much appreciated.

    Flowers to someone you haven't met and not presenting them in person? As everyone else has said, it's a bad idea. Especially roses, which are presumptuous.

    For the secret admirer thing to have any chance of working, you have to at least know each other to some extant; part of it is making her speculate on just who sent her those flowers... a complete stranger sending them just comes off as creepy. Doing it at work is really creepy.

    Also, think of the message that is sent by sending a lady flowers at work. This is a powerful statement and one she won't appreciate from a stranger danger.

    Don't do it; man up and introduce yourself. Really, what makes you think you'd have the stones to say anything to her after sending flowers if you won't even try to chat her up a little beforehand? What would you even say after she got the flowers "Hey, those flower? From big papa fun."?

    Just don't do it.

    You seem to be correct. Even if not, your story sounds very convincing so, yes i am not going to send the flowers.

    Thanks for all other replies. It's greatly appreciated!
