Need an opinion

    Hey, new to this, hope it's being posted in the right forum, apologies if not! already posted to the wrong one once!

    So, need an outside opinion.

    Went on a blind date. Lovely girl.

    Met again two times, lunch coffee drinks etc.

    Turns out shes just out of a long term relationship and doesn't know what she wants.

    Said we'd be friends, you know the usual convo. But I really like this girl.

    To send a single rose to her work place on Vday - too much?
    (I don't know her home address otherwise id send it there)

    Honest opinions please. I don't want any one to tell me how to react but if you were the girl in this situation how would you react, have you heard of similar situations or anything like that.

    Thank you!

    Sorry, I would have to advise against sending the rose. You both have agreed to be just friends I don't think she'd appreciate it. Especially at work.

    Just my opinion but NO NO NO. You have been on 3 dates sending a rose to her work is overkill.

    I think a lot of girls would be cringing big time at this.

    At a very big stretch a card marked personal and a note saying you'd like to get to know her better or you look forward to another date. Even that makes me a bit cringe

    Cheers for the feedback, see she's said that she doesn't know what she wants, we live in diff counties but I could be moving there. she has complimented me alot that im fun, lovely, really nice etc. I want to send it in a nice way you like i could sign it just saying from your new friend. We agreed if i was in the county we'd meet for a date. But yeah, I see your points. thanks for the feedback! last thing I want her to think is im a creep. just trying to be romantic you know!

    Thanks for the feedback, this is why I came here!

    Ive only been on a handful of dates and I get stuck in my head about things so I wasn't sure, I just figured it'd be nice you know. Thanks again!

    Think you're better off just deleting her number and forgetting about her. Sounds like she's still hung up on her ex and with her making it clear that she's not interested in a relationship with you, I only see heartache and drama further down the line.

    Be careful here. You obviously like her a lot but don't let your eagerness to take this further blind you to what she has told you.

    It's not always the case of course but "doesn't know what she wants" often means she's not into you. If someone she fancied the pants off showed up on her doorstep in the morning, she'd not be long about changing her tune. Don't let her string you along.

    Yeah I guess your right, I guess in my mind I just want it more, bit of companionship and all that stuff.. Back to netflix I go.

    Thanks everyone for the advice.
