Just as you must know WHEN to send a woman flowers, it is equally important to know WHEN NOT to send a woman flowers. Â If you want to know when it is appropriate to send flowers, check out our other article entitled, When To Send a Woman Flowers. Â This article here is where we cover WHEN NOT TO. Â Here you go …
1. Â Don’t send a woman flowers during a breakup. Â Don’t throw good money after something bad. Â Flowers won’t save a relationship. Â The only possible exception might be if the breakup is being caused by one of you moving away (like for a new job or similar). Â Otherwise you risk being viewed as PATHETIC for sending flowers to a woman who wants nothing to do with you. Â Keep your self-respect – and your cash!
2.  Don’t send a woman flowers simply to impress her – as it sets a very bad precedent.  One of my buddies just loves to spend big on new women he goes out with.  He sends them flowers … takes them out on limo rides for their dates … and he is not super-rich mind you … he makes maybe $100K/year.  Anyway – these women come to expect a lot of flash and cash from him … and although he seems to haul in some pretty cute women, none of them stay around very long because it is all just a show. My advice – send flowers for a specific reason only … not simply to impress her.  Unless you have money to burn, of course!
3. Â Don’t ever send a woman flowers just for the hell of it – she must EARN those flowers. Â I have taken some heat from several of my female friends over this point-of-view but for me it just makes the most sense. Â The woman must be contributing something to you and the relationship for you to send her flowers … as one-way relationships are bad for the “giver”. Â Don’t be that one-way “giver” … best instead to give AND receive … and in that case it is fine to send her flowers just because you love her. Â If you send flowers too often then it can marginalize their effect.
4. Â Never send flowers if SHE has misbehaved – you don’t ever want to reward bad behavior. Â I cannot emphasize this point enough. Â If she is being bad … like cheating … or doing anything destructive to the relationship … then do not reward that bad behavior with flowers or jewelry or anything … because it sends the wrong message, and will ultimately make you feel bad about yourself. Â Better to save your money!
