thanks spy:tongue:

well it is her 14th birthday too, so it will be a special day

no i joke...serious assistance is needed

I would suggest flowers to her office/middle school, dinner out, and maybe a small gift. Most of it is all so she can show her friends she has a boyfriend. Good luck!:drunk:

[Souter Fell]

yeah, best off something that shows your a good guy to the crones she works with but nothin that sets the bar to high. worst thing you can do is come out guns blazing.

Pink rose, not red.

Red rose is for love, pink is for I like you. Yellow is for friends.

Flowers (Not to her office) and a dinner. If you send it to her office people will ask her who is it from and she may think it is too soon to talk about yoiu. A nicer than usual dinner is alwys safe.... No gifts

Does a 14 year old have an office?

[ozzie]

Need more info... How old are you? Do you have a job? Driver's license? Car?

yes but the principal might get suspicious

Stupid forum.:annoyed:

A nice dinner out and a little gift. Lke a Vermont Teddy Bear, or maybe the $20 Pro Flowers special.

[LordJezo]

She's 14.

Just get your parents to drive you to the Olive Garden and she'll be happy.

additional info might make me look like an actually creep. I'm 33, job..yes driver's license and car..yes. She doesnt have a job, because she's a 22 year old college student. haha thank god for the forum rules or the creep jokes would be flying. We already planned a little trip into Boston for the weekend for dinner and whatever happens. (granted i am from Pa , but she goes to school in CT). I feel like I still need a little gift of some sort. Flowers good?

Yes, flowers are good ... and you'd earn bonus points for showing up with a vase for them. When I was in college, I never had vases. I'm hating to agree with Jezo, but don't do red roses this early in a relationship; it could come off wrong. Pink roses are fine but whatever you do don't do lilies or carnations. Carnations look cheap and lilies make a lot of people sneeze. On the other hand, if you know she's got a favorite flower, see if you can get that ... when I was in college, I always wanted someone to give me irises, but none of the guys I dated then ever did.

Alternately, candy is a good bet if you know she's got a favorite kind to show you've been listening to her likes/dislikes.

Pink rose, not red.

Red rose is for love, pink is for I like you. Yellow is for friends.

So you're getting red roses for the guys at the gym?

A card and some flowers or candy is probably enough.

If you're going to send her flowers use a legit florist; pro-flowers sends their flowers in a box and half the time their dead.

It's like that superbowl commercial with the flowers arriving in a box...

Spy has the right idea, a nice dinner and some roses will do just fine..

Does jezo having his gym buddy's balls in his mouth really count as love?


Back to the question.....


Ya, flowers are OK but a little hack in my opinion. How about you sending her for a day at the spa?

[KittenMittens]

Since you havent been together that long I think anything with romantic overtones to it would suit her fine. The first few months of a relationship is called the honeymoon stage we're both parties are crazy in love and haven't found out all that fucked up shit about each other.

Take her to a nice dinner then bang her.. works for me.

...

I disagree.

ProFlowers' roses (mixed bouquet, which is probably the one on special right now) usually arrive just fine. Order anything else, on the other hand, and the quality definitely goes downhill.

I've been the recipient of ProFlowers roses on multiple occasions and haven't had bad experiences with them, but the one time we got anything other than roses, they weren't as nice.

..Do it, who gives a shit ! You can't possibly think too much of her or yourself if you are soliciting date advice from this group.
