A single Rose or a dozen Roses for Valentines Day?

  1. Is twelve roses too many? or is a single rose not enough? Which one is more romantic, or holds more symbolism?
    Ladies, I would feel it is safe to assume you would rather receive a dozen roses, but how do you feel about this?

  3. I like the idea of one rose. I find it more romantic. Not sure why.
     
  4. Really? I find this really surprising. Everybody I've asked in person has said a dozen. But I'll ask a few more friends for some more opinions. Can I have some more consensus as to to why or why not I should or should not get this girl a dozen roses? Or a single rose?
    lol, thankss, goin to pick her up from work now:D
     
  5. How old is she? How long have you been together? What is your relationship like, are you married?

    I think a dozen roses is more suited for a 10 year anniversary or something similar. As for Valentines, one rose seems more appropriate and just nicer. I also think the type of flower is important. Like a bouquet is nice but I wouldn't get a bunch of roses and I wouldn't get a single flower either. I think a long stemmed single rose is romantic and plain sexy and thoughtful. A dozen is just over the top, expensive and unnecessary.

    Yeah..just my opinion. I'm quite surprised other girls would prefer a dozen roses for Valentines to be honest.
     
  6. It really doesn't matter what you get, if you just get the one rose, but plan something really romantic I doubt your girl will mind.
     
  7. Were not dating yet, but I asked her on a date about a week ago, and we've since cuddled and kissed, and im hoping she doesnt work on valentines day so i can take her out then. I really like her and she keeps posting on facebook how shes always wanted flowers, so i kinda figured i should get her a dozen.
     
  8. A long stemmed rose would be so nice. Esp so early in the relationship..it is just weird getting a dozen. If you want to get a dozen, don't go with roses..go with a nice looking bouquet.
     
  9. shes 21, forgot you asked that by the way. I still think she would just flip for a dozen roses though, and moneys not really the problem hear, i lent out my ps3 and black ops for three weeks to my friend to borrow a hundred and fifty dollars, so i kinda wanna go all out if you know where im coming from. shes a real cool chick and i dont know, her facebook posts say flowers, not flower, so thats why im leaning so toward the dozen roses. Let me hear your feedback though, I'm totally open to suggestion, I just want your opinion to kinda cater to my situation, ya dig?
    lol, im really high, so i dont know if that makes sense, but yea...lol
     
  10. get her zero and be like "betch! YOU get ME some fuckin roses slut!"
     
  11. 21..pretty young. I still say long stemmed rose lol. You could also write her a letter. My boyfriend writes me letters, fkn awesome. Oh wait, don't write a letter..it is way too soon in the relationship for that lol. Since you want to go all out, you could spend the money on something else like a romantic dinner.

    Either way, they both look nice but a single rose is a simple but meaningful gesture. Perhaps before Valentines you could get her some flowers..for her to get excited about your valentines date.

    Flowers are so pretty but they are also so useless lol. I like getting gifts that have meaning and something I can keep. It is why I love letters from my boyfriend. It is the best gift. He is an amazing writer. Soz this isn't about him..getting sidetracked.
     
  12. 1 Red rose, 1 White rose. :wave:
     
  13. A single rose, without question. A dozen is too much for both Valentine's Day and a second date. A dozen is for anniversaries. If you want to go all out, get her the rose and something else, like dinner at a nice place or concert tickets, but don't buy her anything expensive that's personal. Too soon for that.
     

  14. Yeah, it does sound a little soon for a dozen roses.

    I think one rose would come off as sweet and thoughtful, but I'd worry that a dozen roses when you're not even dating yet might come off a little creeper-like. :p

    I'd say one rose and maybe get her a box of chocolates or take her out to dinner or something. Can't go wrong with food. ;)
     
  15. Not to mention, once you set the bar, it's hard to go backwards from there. You'll be stuck buying a dozen roses from now on. I'm just sayin'...:D
     
  16. Considering the price of a dozen roses is 59.99$ because of Valentine's Day (normally 19.99$), I'm only going to get a single rose.
     
  17. Six (needs more characters to post message)
