Here’s a pro tip for the men of #nostr
Do not buy flowers for your missus on special occasions.
Not for her birthday, not for Mother’s Day, not for your anniversary, not for Valentines Day.
And definitely do not buy her flowers after an argument or to try “make up to her”.
Always buy her flowers, randomly.
On a Tuesday. On your way home from the gym. When you’re out running errands. When your train is delayed. When you go to the hardware store. Before her friends come over. These are the times to buy flowers - when she’s not expecting them.
Women love flowers but they are an unimaginative gift for a special occasion, and as she tops off the water every day it serves as a subconscious reminder of how many days since she received them.
You don’t want her mindset of “it’s 4 days since Mother’s Day, 3 months til I get something nice again”. And you definitely don’t want her to see flowers and think back to some big argument you had.
You want to see that spark in her eyes when she receives flowers much more often, decoupled from the calendar. She will appreciate you and the flowers much more this way.
Bonus tip: pick bouquets that aren’t fully bloomed yet, they’ll open up and give her more days to enjoy them.
Go get her some flowers today for no reason and see the difference.
