Avatarofkaine Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Ok in disgussions with those of the fairer persuasion, (not implying inferiority in any way, your just a lot... fairer) I have been told that to find my way into the heart of a girl I love, I should send her flowers while she is at school, I however dont know that this is such a romantic notion. I then got to thinking on variations, i.e. filling her letterbox with rose petals, covering the lawn in rose petals overnight, etc etc.(what can i say, im just a born romantic :love: cough cough) But the question i want to ask, is, flowers or poetry?(poetry writen for that one girl alone). So go ahead and put forth your opinion, or any other romantic notions you have had, maybe we can prove to the girls we arent, as a gender, a bunch of boofheaded imbeciles when it comes to being romantic. Or then again i may just prove that i am the exception to yet another rule:freak: . Either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transtic Nerve Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Poetry shows an artistic side. it says you worked on whatever you were doing. It says you were thinking about what you were writing. It takes talent, time, and thought to write poetry. Flowers take money and less thought. I would personally rather recieve a poem about me (which I've gotten several times) and it always means much more than a rose or a card or whatever, although a girl can show off her roses and no so much a poem all the time.

wrist cutter Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Screw rose petals, fill her letterbox with venomous snakes. Now there's romance. But since I'm sure nobody will like my idea, just make sure to keep the focus of the poem (if you choose to do one) on [i]her[/i]. Don't let too many "I"s or "me"s get in there. Keep it to "you".

Delian Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Give her a single red rose (or her favourite flower) and a poem. Personally I think that should be the way to go. Just don't make the poem too sappy or you'll probably scare her away.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorykoAngelcry Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 [color=darkred][SIZE=1]While I think Wrist Cutter makes a good point about the snakes in the letterbox, I think most girls would rather enjoy what Delian suggested (she is a girl, she might know about these things) I don't know though. . hosptial visit, or flowers and poetry? *shrug* With the single flower, she has something to look at, or show off. . ? (what?) And with the poem, she has something to reflect on weeks, months, or years down the line. Just this poor sap's opinion ^_^[/SIZE][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sui Generis Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 [COLOR=indigo]I'm not really the big romantic type, I've always felt stupid with doing anything considered Romantic for some reason. Although I think its sooooooo cute when people do things romantic heh. Why don't you write her a poem and put rose petals all around the edge of the paper?! I don't know. The best of both worlds?![/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatarofkaine Posted June 17, 2003 Author Share Posted June 17, 2003 As my blood do flow into the ground, and from my head fade the sounds, then i know i am defeated As the light does fade, death held at arms length, then i know i have failed As she slips from my arms, fades from my mind, then i know i am lost As i forget the notion i once believed, lose my faith in myself, forget my love of her, then i know i am pointless, and so berieved. As my hand drops her fingertips, my mouth fall from her lips, then i know i have realised my fears my death bereft of her is torment, my loss is damnation my life is forefeight but my love still lives eternal, think that might be getting a bit away from the "I love you" poem, its about her but possibly not the typical romantic poem. whenever i write proper romantic poems, to me at least they come out MUCH to corny. I'm intent one something like the poem resting on a bed of daffodils, (her favourite flower, ive done my research). I should get plenty of opertunities for romantic gestures once i move to her neighbourhood, so we'll see what happens. Good feedback guys, i may have to use the snake idea on someone else i have in mind, should reinforce my standing as an occult freak, an image ive done nothing to dispell. I can't wait to see what else people come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven's Cloud Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 [color=indigo] It is your life, but, personally I would avoid sending a poem declaring your love in such a bold fashion...it seems as though you are writing about dying in the arm's of your love. I'd try to be a bit more subtle...talk about the girl, the curve of her neck, her musical laugh, the way her hair falls on her shoulders, the way she moves...just don't write about you dying in her arms, I think that will scare her away.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree though, if I were the girl reading this, this would sound just a little too "valiant" and, even worse, self-centered. I mean, she's barely even mentioned. Make a poem that spoils her, like all the things Heaven's Cloud mentioned. Don't worry if it sounds really corny or anything to [i]you[/i] because trust me, unless this girl doesn't like you, she's going to love it. Or you can leave a scorpion in her shoe if you want a more direct path to her heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Macaiodh Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 [color=darkblue][size=1]Yeah, I'd agree that a really deep poem would be a little too much, unless there's already a known attraction/romance between the two of you. I'd say go with the flower and a [i]short,[/i] more light-hearted poem. ...Unless the girl is like me, and desires constant ego strokes, whereas a long, soul-wrenching epic will always do. Heh. What? You think I'm kidding?[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losing Faith Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Feh. Females. Greh. I wouldn't do anything for her, but, of course, I'm a bitter *man*. Females don't do anything but complicate things. They manipulate you. They play with your head. Don't do anything unless she's made it clear that she actually cares for you first. Otherwise you're just setting yourself up for a world of hurt.

Juu Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 [color=ff00cc] [size=1]I'd actually like a rose with a short note/poem attatched to it. Probably because I love flowers. Flowers just seem to light up the whole room. But a poem would show that they actually put fourth a little more effort and thought. But either would work for me. ^^'[/color] [/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatarofkaine Posted June 19, 2003 Author Share Posted June 19, 2003 OH, believe me Losingfaith, i know what a world of hurt is like, i know much more than anyone should know, but i trust her, i care for her one hell of alot, so i think i should be pretty safe this time, ive learned quickly how to know if someone can be trusted or not. I believe and hope that she can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Majin Buu Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Well I think it depends.. If its like a first date thing then a Rose but if like she really understands you maybe a poem would mean more, Idk im just a stupid 14 year old guy so dont listien to me.. Ask her :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dayday Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Flowers would be much better. For instance they might not like poetry. But all girls love flowers, unless they're allergic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 [quote][i]Originally Posted By dayday[/i] unless they're allergic[/quote] There's a good way to get to their heart. She is obviously beautiful in your eyes. But all these things are, to me, last resorts. If you love someone, and they love you, then there sould be no problems getting together. Maybe I'm just going off my own experiances too much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
