Sending flowers a week after Valentine's Day

[GhostB88]

The girl I like is on vacation the week before and after Valentine's Day, and originally I was going to send flowers on Valentine's Day, but now it seems like I have no choice but to delay sending the flowers by a week.

 

My question is: is it still a good idea to send flowers a week after Valentine's Day (with a note that still says happy Valentine's Day)? Or should I just cancel that and get a different gift altogether?

You like her but don't know her?

Are you in a relationship or dating?

 

I would hold probably do something after V day, but wouldn't get a gift unless you're in a relationship.

Agree with petite - if you aren't in a relationship or dating, don't get her a belated gift. That would just be awkward. If you are dating or in a relationship, then by all means let her know you would like to celebrate V-Day a week late.

I do know her, we are just beginning to date and I wanted to surprise her.

Then send the flowers. Is there any way to send them where she'll be on vacation? That would be an amazing surprise!

 

If you've just started dating, flowers and a gift are unnecessary. You want to send a message of thoughtfulness and romance, but don't overdo it.

True. I won't do more than sending the flowers. The flower idea was from her hinting at me, saying how she wants her relationship to be romantic, and saying she likes to take care of flowers on her own time and showing me pictures of the flowers she likes.

 

I thought about sending the flowers to where she is going for vacation, but asking her where she is staying will a) ruin the surprise or b) raise her suspicion and make her feel uncomfortable (like I'm stalking her or something). So unless there's a subtle way to find out the exact address of where she is staying, I don't know how to direct the flowers to her.
