Weird. And potentially quite humiliating, depending on how much his co-workers enjoy busting balls.

I can't. I don't really work in a garage.

I'm in prison.

Me too buddy. It may not have guards and bars, but it sure feels like it does.

It may be unusual but I think it would be awesome.

Why not a cookie bouquet or one of those edible arrangement ones instead?



No guy is gonna bitch about getting cookies at work

Calm down, fatso. Why would a goddamn cookie bouquet go over better with your Clint Eastwood type co-workers than flowers?

not to work.

privately, but only if there is a legit reason not to bring them with the wine.

So the wife of a friend of mine just texted me and asked if it was weird to send a guy flowers at his office like guys do for women



Also....your friend may want to consider if his wife isn't trying some passive aggressive tactics here.


She sends him flowers at work to guilt him into doing more nice stuff for her. A woman isn't usually gonna do this without some sort of motive behind it

I am actually. My husband's office is 2 miles from our house. I always bring him Starbucks in the afternoon when I know he's dragging at work or lunch to him on a weekly basis to his work.


Sending flowers to him though at work? No, not my style.

So impute that to other people and accuse them of being passive aggressive. Seems real sweet.

I worked on a construction site a few years back where a guy I worked with received flowers from his woman at the job trailer. I'm sure we can all imagine how that went for him...no way don't send me flowers.

Women are champions of being passive aggressive though. We excel at it over men any day.


Men confront about issues they are having with their spouse or others typically

Women usually don't like confrontation.....so instead they will mess with your mind and try other tactics to get the results they want.

My husband probably would very much appreciate the thought, but he would definitely catch shite at the office.

If I was a guy, I would probably be impressed that a chic went out of her way to think of me and spend her own money on me.

And then I'd wonder why she wasted the effort on flowers, but I would still appreciate it.
