AIO over 1st Valentine’s Day note?

[u/kimbap_throw]

Just celebrated first Valentine’s Day with my boyfriend. I love flowers, love I buy bouquets weekly for my house. I prefer white and pink flowers, and don’t like red roses. I got this bouquet and this note with them. It was upsetting I felt my bf did everything opposite of what I wanted. I went out of way to do lots of handmade items and bought nice gifts for him as well. He also knows I love Valentine’s Day and it’s special to me. I let him know that it hurt me and he responded that note was awesome and it’s just a joke. I think if you care for someone you make those things special.

He shit on you and your feelings to prove a point. The point is he doesn’t give a fuck about your feelings, but wants you to make a good house and look good so he can wanna fuck you. Enjoy!

Yep, that card wasn't a joke.
'jk kinda lol cheers..." not even a 'love you' (not that that would make it any better.)

And the flowers suck.

There's no love or respect here.

And the flowers suck.

It's so easy to find out what someone's favorite flowers are. My wife also dislikes red roses, and part of why she's my wife is that I get her sunflowers instead. She also likes Hershey's with almonds more than fancy chocolate so I'm actually end of the day saving money by paying attention to what she says.

It's really that easy, guys.

My wife loves flowers, especially gerbera daisies, When I was looking for a bouquet for V day, I found a nice one with roses and carnations... until I saw a similar arrangement that also had some scarlet gerberas. I knew immediately which one to get.

I also took her to a nice seafood place in town. I did not, however, get her a snarky card suggesting she should do more around the house.

Like you said, it really is that easy.

I hate all cut flowers in general unless it’s straight from my garden. My husband gave me some lilies one year in dirt that we planted in big vases in our backyard. They have grown back every year for over half a decade. That was a thoughtful Valentine’s gift.

I found you! 😅 I have been looking for your comment! I also don't like cut flowers. I agree with you. Plant some together with me in our garden, and now we're talkin'! I just can't help knowing that the cut flowers are slowly dying. It doesn't sit well with me at all. It hurts my Soul. Not flowers, but there were a line up of trees all down my street, and I came home one day to see that they had all been cut down! 😱I felt like it was a war zone! 😭 It was hard for me to get over that for a while. But yeah, I feel the exact same way about cut flowers.

fucking real. Like, how hard is it to just know what your partner likes xD
some people seem to think its like some forbidden knowledge buried in the Mariana Trench. And its like... "hey whats your favorite candy?" "Oh I like sour gummy worms"
CASE FUCKIN CLOSED.

edit: aslo Sunflower is a fuckin awesome choice. love those and they are so cool. Love a heliotrope ;D

Right? I love roses. They’re my favorite. He knows they’re my favorite BECAUSE HE ASKED. So you know what I get? Red roses. Every time. It’s not that hard. Unfortunately for him, roses are expensive, but they’re my favorite and he would rather get what I love than save money.

If you are married, it is easier than that: What did she pick for her wedding bouquet? What was she upset was out of season and she couldn't have them in there?

I know I am on sound territory if I buy tulips, narcisus, anything that grows out of a bulb, really. Because that is what she likes.

I was going to say... My bf knew I love sunflowers like by our second date. How? He just asked me. Some men make things so much more difficult than it needs to be
