So on Saturday night, when Ken & I were all dressed in formal attire to go to his Christmas work party, Ken arrived at my house to pick me up with a bouquet of flowers. (This is partly because I've been nagging him about buying me flowers...something which he hates to do because he claims that they die and are a waste of money). Ken & I often have disagreements over flowers (as we did later that night) cause he simply hates buying them, claiming it's a waste of money while I advocate on behalf of giving flowers, claiming that they are necessary in a relationship.
So in tribute to all the women out there, I would like to make a bold claim.
ALL WOMEN LIKE FLOWERS.
What in the world is wrong with flowers? They're aesthetically pleasing to the eye and the nose (they smell good and look good). And if they bring happiness (however, temporarily) to the receiver, then why not allow the receiver to enjoy these moments/periods of happiness more often? That way, the giver can delight in the fact that his/her gift made someone happy. HMPH.
Now whose with me?
And no, these pictures aren't the flowers that Ken gave me. He has them on his camera still. These are just some pics that I found on the web. Gerbera daisies (the bottom pic) are my favourite type of flowers.

thanks jenn...i'm definitely not posting pics of the flowers i got for you b/c you're so slick and posted really nice pics of other flowers that i didn't get you.
wow, two birds w/one stone... you made me look bad and made my flowers look bad((by saying i'm depriving you of happiness and by posting these really nice pics).
stop being a grouchy baby...you know you love getting me flowers!
when i read this post i opened the comments and though if anyone is gonna respond to this its gonna be naomi because in the words of usher (who i never thought i'd quote)
she's got it bad...
wutever it is
but lo and behold no naomi
on another note ken ur mind is mischevious...i woulda never thought jenn was one upping ur flowers by putting up pictures...but u somehow did
oh and i agree all girls like flowers cuz they're fun...
and everyone knows girls just wanna have fun...
sing along now...
haha made u do it!
lool. i got it bad? too funny.
well, here is my comment...a little late mind you, but i am sure still welcomed.
i do think all girls like flowers. but this depends on who they are getting it from. in jenns case, she would love flowers from ken because she loves ken. its a simple and friendly reminder that you care/love that person. and yes, they do die, but i agree with jenn. no matter how temporary they last, if it brings a smile to that persons face then why not give it to them. and it doesnt even have to be a bouquet or flowers ken. a simple rose, or lily is still always nice...and in a way more meaningful. ya know? and if it comes with a small card too, all the better...
sorry ken, i am so not helping ur case right now...but i gotta back up jenn with this one...
nay 'i got it bad and don't i know it' shiqua
ya, that's what i was confused about. i didn't understand why ken was upset about me posting other flowers...i didn't see it as upping. i was just posting them in the meantime in wait of your pictures.
steve, where are you!? back me up brother!
i have gotten flowers for jenn numerous times! it's not my fault she forgets and doesn't remember! so why am i the bad guy? lately i have refused b/c of that simple reason. i've even brought flowers to her work place as a surprise.
i just think that it is a waste b/c she forgets and they die after a week. they are nice to look at but only for a few days. i rather use that money to buy something more meaningful and longer lasting.
lol...i think this post is causing a lot of trouble for you two...and the fact that me and d are backing jenn up isnt helping...maybe we can talk about something else...
i don't forget! the only reason i forgot what your last batch of flowers looked like is because it was two years ago!
TWO years ago, around february, you delivered flowers to scotiabank at which calvin and radley said you were gay and that you make them look bad. after you picked me up, we went to find simon who was wearing that maple leaf suit, handing out flyers.
SEE? I REMEMBER!!
....lol...ken man, u have gotten urself in trouble...
solution: send jenn some flowers. ha!
Sorry Ken, Ive been out of the blogging world for a while....Im not sure what to say...i dont buy flowers all that often so they dont put a dent in my bank account. But making people happy is always fun
i bought flowers for you so many times. what about first year for valentines? what about the rose pedals i laid down? what about the flowers i got for our one year anniversary when i made you dinner for the first time? what about the flowers i bought for one of your birthdays? what about the flowers i bought for no reason? what about the rose i gave you when you came to st.kitts? what about the flowers i ask my mom to give you? i'm sure i bought you flowers another time...
i've bought plenty of flowers...
just for that, i refuse to buy flowers for TWO years!
are you going on a flower strike?
classic.
lol.
Aaw Ken, sounds like you need a hug. I think you two should forget the material b.s. and just give eachother a hug!!
jen, have you ever picked up some pretty flowers and given them to ken?
This is probably not even my place to be saying anything, seeing as how i dont know you two that well . . know that i only mean well <3
yah jenn...what about the flowers u and ken bought me for my birthday...does that count?
no they do not count.
ok, ken, you win. i'm sick of this debate. you've bought me flowers many times yes. adding up the total number of times in 4 years, yes it is a lot. but if you really think about it, most of the flowers you got me were within the first two years of us dating.
this goes to support my hypothesis that the longer a couple dates for, the less effort they put in for each other. it's like how i wear my sweatpants & home clothes every weekend you come to see me. this is why married couples fall out of love b/c they dont' try to impress each other anymore.
i already wear my sweatpants in front of ronnie (and vice-versa) and we haven't been together for nearly half the time of u and ken...so what does that mean?
and i think that even before marriage the 'impression' stage needs to be over. i mean, doesn't it sound a bit strange that you are still trying to impress the person you are supposed to spend the rest of your life with??
and i think that people fall out of love for much more deeper issues than that. no?
but hey, thats just my 2 cents. throw it in the fountain and make a wish if u like. or just throw it away.
i find it a little hard to believe that u wear ur sweatpants w/ ronnie. by sweatpants, u probably mean sweatpants w/ a matching top & makeup.
when i say sweatpants, i mean like i haven't showered in a couple of days' nastiness, bed-head, a t-shirt that says "Bear Camp" w/ a hole in the armpit.
as for the impression stage, i don't think u understand my meaning. couples should be comfortable w/ each other definitely & know that they love one another w/out the need for constant "impressing." however, romantic sparks are needed from time to time (e.g. flowers, presents, candlelight dinners, etc).
i also find it a little hard to accept someone, whose in a 5 month relationship, giving me advice...that's just my 2 cents.
guys thats 4 cents...i can't even put that in the candy machine thats gives 25cent rings and get me a boyfriend to go to NYC on new years...lol
i think...from my dabbling in the dating world that sometimes the dating period if when people are at their best...but realistically who is at their best all the time...not me thats for sure.
marriage counsellors (like my parents who counsel me and my sister who are not married) also recommend that couples who are in a cooled down kinda period make intentional acts of romance and appreciation in order to spark their relationship in various areas which we will not mention...since neither of u two should even know about that yet!!
;)
marriage and dating like everything else in life has ebbs and flows...ups and downs...the test of a real realtionship is being able to say
i've committed to loving this person no matter the circumstances and though i may not feel all that loving right now my committment is the foundation of this relationship...even if they have holes in the armpits of their pyjamas like jenn ...or fart onthe bed like naomi...
omg. first of all i dont fart in my bed. thats gross.
second of all, i wasnt trying to give adivce, although even if i was it shouldnt matter if i was with someone for 5 months or 5 years, sense is sense.
and when i say sweats i mean the same kind of sweats as you. contrary to popular belief i dont wear make up all the time. its kinda sad that you should think that. its sadder that you might think that i dont feel comfortable enouhg in my own home and with the man i am going to marry to not wear any makeup and just be natural in front of him, baggy pants and all.
make that now 6 cents.
i like flowers.......wish someone can understand the importance of them
this is hilarious! I'm just looking for flowers to paint and i come across this!
ha ha ha
you guys are so stupid, they are just flowers
wouldnt you rather have his love and affection?
so petty lol
oh! i love flowers !
a guy or a girl how one can dislike flowers those are so lovely
well jeez, I was looking for a picture of a gerbera daisy and instead found this....good stuff, now lets make that 6 cents 8.....I happen to agree with all of you, everybody loves flowers, nobody likes spending money on them.....sweats are the best, and wearing makeup all the time is ok....thank you all for perking up my night!!
hey those flowers are adorable what type are they?
hi all,
Stef-the flowers in the first picture are plumerias, we have quite a bit of these in hawaii
and the second picture is of gerbera daisies
Heyy!!

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
