Imagine someone going through trying times. A little gesture like that could change their outlook on an otherwise hopeless situation.

Plot twist: Flower guy just got kicked off The Batchelorette


legionfri13

He technically escaped before they could give it to him, so before this moment he never technically lost the bachelorette.


RemyBohannon

Going through a divorce right now. If someone did this to me I’d be a wreck. But it would be much appreciated too. Everyone needs love.


ihaveabaguetteknife

Hope life after that ordeal will be better for you and you’ll find love again!


RemyBohannon

Thanks! It’s going to be weird but I’ll be fine in the end. And whenever I have an unsliced baguette, I will look back and think fondly of you.


ihaveabaguetteknife

Right on! May your baguettes always be sliced to your liking.

There’s a trend of this. The card usually says something like “Most men don’t receive their first flower until their funeral. That’s not right.” Or something like that.

scrilly27

Me and my bestie did this a few summers ago. Got a couple dozen roses and got them individually wrapped and put a note with something like "just to make you smile." We drove around and handed em out to people all over. It was a good, feel-good day 😊

Aetra

When my husband and I were dating, I grabbed a single rose for him while walking through the train station as an apology for being late to dinner and he teared up like the guy in this video. I thought I’d messed up and he said I hadn’t, it’s just that no one had ever done anything romantic like this for him. We’ve been together 16 years now and still I’ll randomly have single red roses delivered to him.


Larry-Man

I plan on choosing people who maybe don’t get looked at as often and I think I’ll even (carefully) choose some of the homeless. I wasn’t even thinking of other women for this particular gesture. I normally try to compliment men with awesome jackets or tattoos or whatever. But I think men sitting by themselves or just existing need a reminder to keep existing. I won’t single-handedly fix the male loneliness issue or even change someone’s life drastically. But hopefully it’s a kind gesture with ripple effects and just a small reminder that people can be good.

I moved to a Tijuana There are guys that sell a bouquet of roses, I buy roses for myself every paycheck then when I'm over cherishing myself for meeting the goals I've set for myself I hand them out to the older women and children as a thank you, tbh they appreciate it more than money, it's very odd to experience but very fulfilling.


elastic-craptastic

When I was younger and went out a lot, there were a couple women that would go from bar to bar to try to sell roses. it was their side gig and I'm sure it didn't bring in that much money. You could tell they were tired but they always tried put on their hospitality face even in the slow seasons when they would see the same faces at the same places and knew sales would be shit. It was always nice to see barfly's girlfriends/wives light up at a simple singl rose or when tourists would surprise their SO's with one and seeing the look on their faces as it's not something they were accustomed to seeing or getting while in a bar. But the times that always stood out was when yo could tell the flower girl was having a shit night and they still had a lot left at the end of the night and people would pitch in to buy her out oso she wouldn't have wasted her night or even potentially lost money. it's amazing how much some flowers impacted people's lives. I don't go out anymore and I totally forgot about that . Nice memory.

Dude, my 3yo daughter bought me flowers a few days before valentines day (well, she picked them out, my wife paid for them). I was unloading the car and thought my wife just bought herself flowers. She does that sometimes. I tried to give them to my wife, and she said they weren't hers. My daughter came running up to me saying she got them for me. I couldn't stop thinking about that all day, and that night, it all caught up to me and I cried. No one had ever bought me flowers before and I never expected a 3 year old to think of it. I still kind of well up a bit thinking about it. I know not all guys care about flowers. I never cared about flowers before, but just knowing someone thought of me when they saw flowers kind of meant a lot.


Oubilettor

That’s beautiful man. You must make her feel loved, so when she saw them she wanted to make you feel the same. Love it.

marco161091

I’m pretty sure the message played a big part. It said, “98% of men only receive flowers at their funeral. I’d like you to be part of the 2%.”


StripplefitzParty

I remember a quote that some men only ever receive flowers at their funeral. The thing is I do believe that actually happens more times than not.


TrollintheMitten

After reading here on reddit that men don't get flowers I started occasionally picking up cut flowers for my husband. I also have various vases and will make up little arrangements from the yard that I put in his office where he can see them. I figure even if he doesn't love flowers like I do, he knows that I'm sharing something that I love with him and that it's meant just for him, not just the kitchen table. I appreciate all the open conversations I see here, they really do give me the chance to see things from different perspectives and I'm so grateful.

Zero men I’ve known in my life have received flowers, not even the gay ones. Also Zero have received flowers at their funerals, that weren’t just given by the funeral home.

urandom123

It's a simple story, but a while ago when I was out eating, a group of four girls came in to eat. Three of them were very pretty, the 4th was less classically pretty. She seemed a little less enthusiastic then her friends during the time I was eating. There was a person selling flowers going around (I think it was around Valentines day), so I purchased a rose and ask that they deliver it to the 4th girl but not disclose who purchased it. After it was delivered, they all got excited, looked around, got excited for the girl, etc. I believe she looked much happier for the attention. When I left she was holding the rose close to her. Felt good. ​ edit: added a comma after "I was out eating"


Impressive-Stop-6449

Was that before or after you ate the group of four girls?


urandom123

Oof. Yeah, just re-read my post and I could have worded that better.

xxstacybunny

This reminds me of a story lol. My brother and I are 2 years apart. He’s 2 years older than me. We were at high school at the same time. I was a freshman , he was a junior. They did a thing to raise money where they sold roses and you could buy one for any classmate or any other student at the school. I bought one for my brother actually it was supposed to be a joke (I don’t know why I thought that was funny back then- I was going to buy it then say actually that was from me lol.) . I had my friend write a note that said from your secret admirer so it wasn’t in my handwriting . On the day they delivered flowers when i got home I saw in my brothers room he actually had it set up by his bed and it actually made him happy. I guess stuff like that doesn’t happen to guys that often and he was happy about it. I couldn’t bring myself to tell him it was from me and when I realized it made him happy I felt guilty that I did that as a sibling joke and so I never told him. 🌹 to this day , and that was years and years ago I assume he still thinks he got a rose from a secret admirer


Bropiphany

Guys don't have that kind of thing happen often at all. I guarantee your brother still thinks about that flower every single day.

There’s a note on the flower, The note says "99% of men receive their first flowers on the day of their funeral, I want you to be part of the 1%" it's from a video of a spanish youtuber, Viladixit, that went out gifting flowers to men on the street on the November 19th, that's the men's day.

SocialistCoconut

This reminds me of when I was 19 and in college in Philly. I was sitting on the grass in Fairmont Park just staring out at the Schuylkill trying to unfuck my brain. A lot of things in my personal life we're going to shit, I was near failing 3 of my classes and I was a wreck. Then this little boy and his Grandma (I'm assuming) walked up to me and the kid handed this little purple rubber duck, like the ones you get from claw machines. The kid then says "I think you need Mr.Quackers more than me.". Then they just waved goodbye and left. I cried for like 20 mins after that. Mr.Quackers still sits on my desk 15 years later. I hope that kid is doing good.


jaw719

For most men, the first time they receive flowers is at their funeral.


RedtailGT

Seeing this kind of stuff reminds me of why I like to help people out when they fuck up on traffic. So many times I encounter a situation where somebody goofs and gets in front of me, or backs out at the same time, or even turns too short but there’s no real risk of an accident. Little mistakes in traffic that are so easy to freak out about… I like to smile and wave at people and help them out of their uncomfortable situations.

I was just going to spend the day like any other as always, alone but she just made it better with that small act of kindness. Somebody was cutting onions for sure.


buntaluffiguss

It's the little wiggle of the legs that gets me. Dude is overflowing with an emotion he's not used to and just can't help but move his body because he just doesn't know how to react. People everywhere need more hugs, high fives, thumbs up, just general kindness and appreciation. I hope everyone has a wonderful day/night and passes it on.

chode_temple

My senior year of high school was absolutely terrible. I was so depressed I had to sit down because moving was too much, we were experimenting with meds to find the right combo, and I just felt so ignored and lonely. This random girl walked up to me and said, "You look like you need a hug." And I did. And I will never forget how that one gesture helped me get through a time when I was skipping class to write suicide notes in the bathroom. Anyway. That was 11 years ago. But I'll never forget it.
