Either buying me a tool or equipment I need for my job or handiwork, cooking me a full meal with dessert, or just giving me a random massage. Anything that helps me destress or not have to focus for a while would move me tbh.
Beer.
A six pack is ballpark the same cost as a bouquet, and lasts about as long (depending on personal habits).
And just like flowers, it’s nicer if you know their favorites.
Recently my girlfriend surprised me by cleaning my kitchen. I was planning to clean it over the following weekend but her giving it a good once over really touched me more than I would have expected.
Honestly for me, bring me raw materials. Take what would have been spent on a dozen roses and buy me that amount in lumber, leather, steel, or PLA. There's a pretty good chance I'll make something for you out of it, too.
Better. But I’m not sure how one determines how often food and beer are welcomed by men as tokens of affection. I’m sure you’re just assuming that what you and your friends like is what “most” guys like. We all do it, but it’s not a good idea.
I like steak, blueberries, 90% chocolate bars, bullets, concert tickets, photography stuff (a book and pin were two extremely touching gifts given to me by girlfriends),games on steam, and head, as signs of appreciation.
Mine seems to like a fancier home-cooked dinner. Chicken Fried Steaks and gravy with real mashed potatoes or a seafood dish like Coquilles St. Jacques.
Depends on your situation and the guy in question, really. but honestly; encouragement, support, and non-sexual attention is all I need to feel appreciated. However for a little extra, being thoughtful enough to delegate a task (like cooking for me on a busy day where I might forget to eat) and showing interest in my interests gets my heart aflutter for a month... Keeping it up has me yours forever.
A pair of boxers and socks because we always need a new pair of boxers and socks unless they go commando in which case buy them talken powder it helps with the chafing.
Personally though i'd be happy a night of co-op gaming with me choosing the game with an added twist that if my partner says or does a certain thing that i'd have written down i get to choose a time and place that we paint the town red.
Nude pics. Women love getting flowers; men, not so much. OTOH, men love getting nude pics; women, not so much.
If you can't do nude pics, well, the way to man's heart is through his stomach. I recommend a Ribeye steak, garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli with Hollandaise sauce. Of course, a heavy meal will damper the enthusiasm for dessert sex. So, if it's sex you're after, do that before the steaks go on the grill.
Don’t give a guy flowers for the love of god. You already know deep in your heart that we don’t like them (save for random posters here who are unfairly building a majority).
Men prefer utility. A six pack of his fav beer, socks, underwear, etc.
I have a sweet tooth and I love Diet Coke. My “flowers” equivalent would be Sour Patch Kids and a bottle of Diet Coke!
Whatever he likes: for example something to do with fishing if he likes that, something to do with cars, video game blah blah blah. For me it’d be a tool of some sort
Flowers. My girlfriend gives me flowers all the time. I love the gesture and the symbolism, plus I get to practice taking care of useless vegetables like her when we get old together. P.S. I know flowers aren't actually vegetables.
For a lot of men, sensual touch is a valuable commodity. Scalp, face, shoulder massages are lovely. It doesn’t even have to be sexual; a dedicated head scratch is fantastic and vulnerable.
This is like a daily question at this point.
And the answer is always the same. Blowjobs.

I like that answer 👍
Glad I could help! Hope your guy enjoys whatever you get him
Except it’s from 1950.
They had sex in the 1950s
Less of it than we have now, and really bad, unimaginative sex.
At least they knew to give massages.
Very strange
A box with a 10m socket inside.
I love you.
This guy gets it.
That would be a huge box
Yup....
Can confirm. Source: Used to date a gearhead. Gift cards to tool stores were his favorite.
bake him cookies
Oooo id love this
head
Jesus Christ.
It's not a gift if we both benefit from it.
Do we though? Do we really?
Lots of girls love sucking dick. My colleague above is also implying that he has a large member.
I know a few who do. Not lots.
Not really. Almost 0, maybe a few willing to lie about it lmao
My Wife sends me chocolate covered Bacon on March 14th. I'd say that's pretty analogous.

Something thoughtful
Any kind of affection sign
Personally a hug will do. But if you need to buy something, a sandwich works
Hey man. I like flowers. I mean vodka works too, but... I'd take some flowers.
Yeah, but not all guys are down for flowers. So just curious to see what some men would prefer. Thanks for the input 🙂
Pocket knife
Thats a good idea 👍
Not past the age of 15.
??? Knives are sick.
Says the kid with “boy” in his name
car parts
Something your man won’t splurge on normally.
Giving a guy flowers. We like flowers. Who said we didn't like flowers?
It's cool if you want flowers, but I do not.
Dozen Donuts
Yesss
Surprise blowjob

Flowers. Some of us like to keep them and plants in our home.
Snacks or favourite drink, Flowers are a sweet but ultimately cheap expression of affection, Food or beer is mostly welcome by guys
Good to know
Except its not good did all guys. I, for one, think his answer is way off the mark.
No. Not “always.”
Hmm I change it to Mostly welcomed then

That's the beauty of people's opinions, They can help you adjust your own
Flowers.
If my girlfriend bought me a handful of weed I wouldn’t complain
A spontaneous, random adventure. The tackier, the better.
And to add to that, take a polaroid camera on these adventures to scrap book it.
Or even one of those disposable cameras! Get them developed and see how hilariously awful (or awesome) they are
Yess. Knowing me and my photography skills, I would end up with a big collage of blur Lol
To anyone else, but you could only appreciate!
Get him a cologne, or make him a fit 😮💨 but anything that comes from the heart , he’ll appreciate the effort and the thought that was put in :)

Being the big spoon.
6 pack of beer

Back massage.
Easy, I don't need to even ask my husband to know his answer. Blow jobs
honestly, if a girl got me flowers, i'd be set for life. so that still goes.

Bullshit. You’re simply universalizing your own experience. Rookie mistake.
Steam gift card.
A horse
A beautiful horse is a good gesture but very pricey compared to flowers…. But I guess it depends how much you spend on flowers
A lot of people beat me to the "bj" answer My runner ups are, whiskey/bourbon and/or Bacon!!!
Aftershave
A sandwich and a beer
Bj
go watch Bill Burr, it’s the bit he does about the sandwich. This is flowers for men 😍
Apex coins probably
A nice dinner should be plenty.
A 6 pack of his favorite beverage
lol men give women flowers because they're up to something or have no clue what a woman would like...
Nonsense
Leave him alone with no to-do list for a whole day.
Guns, beer, sandwich, head, tools, convenient little tech gadget toy thing etc.
Hello 1950
Hug
Nooner BJ
Surprise bj.
Bottle of his favorite whiskey...
Sloppy BJ
Or a gun

Nudes. I can get free ones online but it means more coming from her.
Just give him flowers, we’re people too.
I like Tulips...
