I'd get her chicken in a bucket. She'll be sure to swoon. |

As a one off gesture, I don't think there's anything wrong with sending flowers. Just don't get your hopes up  |

Someone sent chocolate to me at work once. A big block from Hotel Chocolat. It was a very kind gesture and it did make me smile and feel special. Didn't make me sleep with him though x |

It's been so long since I've been single that I don't know if I'd like them or not
As long as she knows where they came from I don't think she could be offended in any way
Good luck |

'I really like you' is a tad childish but you get the idea, and know what you will want to put

"Pure, what do you mean  you do not get any ..flowers that is "
I prefer longer lasting presents rather than flowers that die
Although champagne never lasts that long in my presence  |

In my opinion, choose something classy, not rainbow. And no balloon, it'll be a pain to take home and draw attention to her - she may be shy. |

Haha less is more and planning is key
How will she react?
Would she be interested
MOST IMPORTANTLY, will declining cause her embarrassment
Overloading her with flowers chocolates nextdoors cat in front of all her work colleagues could work against you
Keep it low key, try to make it so both yes and no outcomes have limited embarrassment for both of you,
Or screw all that, get a white suit, single red rose, full brass band and serenade her from her companies reception, haha,
Good luck though |

"Cr5, im listening, tell me "
A red rose arrangement is enough, no more than a couple dozen (that's huge, anyway). Unless the chocolates are posh like Charbonnel et Walker, Godiva, Leonidas or Hotel Chocolat, leave them too. |

Doms, brother must TRY or i would never know( as my old manager said you do not ask you do NOT get ) , i think just two of each color roses would be perfect not to much not to less just perfect as she works in a hair salon lol so my plan IS to make her a tad bit shy just a little |

I agree.. Flowers from a stranger might be weird, but we've all done weird things !
I used to admire a guy I used to see after work so one day I gave him a note because I was too shy to talk to him . The note said "hi , I just met you and this is crazy but here's my number .. Call me maybe. " left my number, name and a winky face lol. He messaged me the same night and we had some very fun experiences for a while lol.
Anyway back to the original q.... I would maybe talk to her first, flowers or chocs from someone you don't know is a little weird. Keep us updated |

"Flowers from a stranger. .weird "
I'm curious as to why? It's a show of affection from an as yet unknown admirer, I'm sure if they'd graduated from the Nicolaj Costa-Waldeau institute of handsome you wouldn't be finding their affections 'weird'. |

Weird may be wrong word ... In my opinion though, regardless of how someone looks, its not the 'norm'. I use that phrase loosely. Some of us women , just like some of you men, are a little shy/ conscious. After all, society tells is not to except gifts from strangers and from someone who she's never spoken to , it may just put her off a little.
If he spoke to her first, then sent her flowers, this would be different as shed know who they were from.
We could be wrong, she could be impressed with the flowers. Think of you're response If a woman sent a gift to your work, a woman you'd not spoken to before .....
Whatever you choose OP I hope it goes well |

I think a bouquet of red roses is a bit intense at this point. To me they signify love and romance in an existing relationship and you aren't in that position, yet. I would go with a simpler bunch and therefore less full of expectancy and pressure. But as for receiving flowers from a stranger I don't think it's strange and have been on the receiving end a few times. It would be a good idea to find out if she is available first though, as I never was when I received them so they were wasted unfortunately. |

Alright, perhaps a full bouquet of roses is a bit much, but I still think a paper flower left on someones desk would be seen as a rather sweet and gentle way to let them know of your affections. |

Don't send her anything , do you want a woman that thinks of you as a provider of flowers or money
And don't take any notic of what the women have said on this thread , women are mental and have no idea what they want.
Just a simple " I am going bowling thirsday evening want to tag along "
If she said yes ( which you have a greater chance off than sending her flowers or chocolates at work and having her public humiliation in front of everyone ) say see you at time place , and then walk away .
Your obviously not very good with women , don't try and chat to her, go bowling , have a game of pool and then leave saying you have to work .
At this point ask for her email address, she will gladly give that you, as its a safe bet , then just say scribble your number down .
If she says can I have your number because I don't know mine say " no way you look the type to ring me 300 times a day ,
The les you say the better it will be for you . |

So have you sent the flowers yet OP?
If it was me I'd probably want to gauge how she'd feel about publicly getting flowers first.
If she'd feel uncomfortable or awkward having that happen in front of her colleagues it might backfire. But I guess if she'd be ok with it, it is quite an unusual and chivalrous way to let her know she is admired.
I'm not sure I'd do it without striking up a conversation first but it might work and charm the pants off her.
Good luck in whatever you do OP, I hope it works out for you! |

Men take flowers to their mum and their nans , or to funerals.
Chocolates to kids
Any time a man gives a woman flowers or chocolates except mum or nan he has done something wrong |

Update..
I did send her the flowers, Two Colors Each, and she loved it.
My mate delivered them to her @ her work place, i was on phone to him & i heard a lot of Aww`s and omg those are very pretty .
I left a little note there saying how i thought she is the Most Beautiful Woman i have ever seen and how i wanted to give the flowers to her my self but i was bit shy anyways left my number, and we bin to dinner already and plan to go again 
Who says romance is dead !
Ps, not about me not being confident etc @ times you will come across someone that you do actually like and you wish not to mess it up so i took this route and hey ho paid off ! |

I would freak out.
Apart from the fact I believe flowers should be growning and I don't eat chocolate, can you imaging how awkward it would be at work after that happened?
If you really can't approach her, why not leave a small note in a nice card with your phone number. That way, you won't be backing her into making a decision, especially in front of her coworkers. |

Imagine if you are @ a hair salon and you see someone delivering flowers to someone who works there, initial thoughts are Aww or How Cute/Sweet etc NOT omg that is weird / creepy or if someone sent them to me i would bin them blah blah, that shows you are no where near romantic or you have not come across any gentleman who would show you any sign of romance

I detest being given cut flowers, it's a waste of money and resources.
Your other assumptions are just that, assumptions.
Anyone who wanted to give me a romantic gesture would know exactly what that was which would make it VERY romantic and original. |

Leave the gifts. I couldnt think of anything worse.
Just ask her if she would like to go for a drink or something. Do this then if you get along maybe send her some nice flowers to say you had a good time and would she like to do it again. |

I disagree us blokes if we talk to women just mess it up
Surely you would rather go bowling or darts or pool
It always reminds me of a job interviews siting at the table asking each other questions
I feel like I should have taken my cv and bank statement with me perhaps I am the only one that feels that way |

As i said... A drink or something. Bowling is fine
I just find gifts from someone you didnt even know existed a bit creepy lol... Only my opinion tho |
