I’m newly married. If your wife says “don’t get me flowers” does she mean that?

I tried to combine the birthday / Valentines day into one since they are a week separated by getting her an iPad.

Then I remembered she slid in this comment during a conversation last week, "You are still gonna do something for Valentines Day though right?"

She has something waiting for her tm lol.

My wife is not a flower person. Dinner and a movie and she is happy with that.

Pro Tip: Send them to her work. Women love to make it known they’re better than other women. They all secretly hate each other.

Flowers are a rip off, but guys will do anything that increases their chances to get laid...
