Yeah, but not at work... that's a little bit too much.





Make sure you get the right kind of flowers, too. They have their own language, ya know. You wouldn't want to send her roses or anything like that, that might make her feel awkward.





If you've got a garden, then pick some nice fresh ones and take 'em to her house when you visit. That's always a nice thing to do.





EDIT: No, chocolate is worse. Stick with the flowers, but take 'em to her house.
Reply:I want to say Yes, it's OK, but I hope you guys are good enough friends that you are not going to confuse her by your "step up" into the flower-giving level, that's all.





There are so many questions in Y!A about "how do I tell my best friend" that I *like* like her. If that's not what you're trying to do, just make sure she knows it or you could have some misunderstandings.





(Edit) You know that all her friends at work will tease her and say, Oooh, somebody likes you!!
Reply:Sending flowers could send a very wrong message if you are not romantically in to her. If I got flowers from a guy friend, I think it would make me wonder if he was trying to go to the next level. If you want to send something, how about balloons or one of those cookie bouquets. Less romantic association with those.
Reply:i would send them to her home or give them to her yourself, as work mates could raise an eyebrow as they do.


yes flowers are fine i mean you give them to your mother and it only means what it means so go for it!
Reply:that would be sweet, but you might give her the wrong idea if shes "just a friend" maybe you like her more than a friend? none of the friends I know send anything to friends just for being a good friend :)
Reply:No woman can resist flowers.
Reply:I would send them, I have done that in the past. Of course I was not dating anyone at the time. And perhaps stay away from roses...
Reply:yellow roses=friendship! go for it!
Reply:perfectly ok..
Reply:they are good. yes it is also ok to do that.
Reply:Yes! You are a great friend.
Reply:as long as it's not like a dozen red roses it's ok
