Is it possible...
to tell your husband to quit buying you a certain kind of flowers without hurting his feelings? I appreciate the fact that roses are supposed to be "the" flower... however, I am not a huge fan. I don't really dislike them but they are not my favorite, and I much prefer yellow or orange to red... however whenever chase buys me flowers for anything he buys me red roses. They are pretty but I really like daisies, tulips and even carnations sometimes. Roses just seem overdone and they are a lot more expensive than other flowers and don't last as long. I appreciate that he buys me flowers, and have hinted that I like other things, but he's pretty dense sometimes.
Re: Is it possible...
YES! I straight up told B that I perfer gerbs or daisies to roses. I think they say more about a person. Any fool can pick out roses, but I think it takes more to pick out gerbs, tulips or something else...or even yellow roses.
My mom's favorite are yellow roses, and my dad knows that if he is going tobuy my mom roses, it has to be yellow. When I had B, my mom and dad sent me 12 long stem yellow roses. I LOVED them. It has meaning, ya know?
Maybe next time you are out together and you see flowers, tell him how much you love ______ and that you think you should buy some for the house b/c they brighten the room and last a lot longer than roses. Then segway insert next holiday here, I would love to get some _____ for the house. Would he get that? B picks up on my hints. I always say "I'm just saying..." LOL
Maybe not. He's pretty dense sometimes.
I have actually told him "You know you don't always have to buy me roses, right?" which apparently to him also translates to it's ok to buy them every time. I think I might wait a few days and just tell him. It's pretty difficult to offend him.
