Reply To: flowers? or too soon?

Gefen,

That is a beautiful story, and I must say I have never been shy about doing such things, and in the past it always worked out. I dated someone very seriously, and after about a month she started studying for a professional exam which took much of her time and interfered with our dating schedule heavily. About a week after, she started, I sent her a package I put together of study aids and coffees and other items that would help her during the tough time. For other reasons, down the road, We didn’t have the happy ending you did, but things changed after that, and she always referred back to that gift as a turning point in our relationship, for the better of course.

I feel that these days, guys especially, think too much before doing nice gestures for girls, because they are stuck playing ” that dating game”, when essentially girls just want to see that you care for them and will go out of your way to do to something nice. These things really have a way of setting you apart in their minds. I thought I would seek this advice for perhaps at this point in our dating process, it might be a little too aggressive, although I’m about 95 percent sure, the flowers would go over very nicely.
