Gifts and flowers are just 'means'
I am the owner of a large flower shop in Saigon. Every March 8th, I am surprised to see that in the late afternoon, even after 10pm, late at night, there are still many customers coming to buy flowers for their women. The evening of March 8th is even more crowded than during the day.
At that time, the guys looked both adorable and funny: one guy hurriedly went in to buy "any flowers, hurry back to finish the mission"; one guy was drunk, staggered into the shop, tongue-tied, hugged the bouquet of flowers and left. Another guy hurriedly brought in a gift and said "wrap it with flowers as a combo, it's late, hurry up, whatever".
I wonder how she will feel when she receives the flowers and gifts when she gives them to me like this? Buying flowers in a hurry and giving them to her late at night will make it easy for her to get flowers that are not to her liking.
She thought March 8th was a special day, but her husband never came home. Late at night, he appeared, looking as drunk as a "noodle", carrying a flower basket. She was so happy.
On March 8, the husband said nothing, not a single sweet text message, not even a kiss on the forehead before going to work. He didn’t interact with his wife all day, and by the end of the day, no amount of flowers or gifts could save him.
Many men do not understand that women need "what's behind the gift" and not the gift itself. That is, women need to be loved, cared for, cherished, and cherished, and gifts and flowers are just two of the many "means" for men to express that.
What is "behind the gift"?
My friend has not given his wife flowers or gifts for many years, even on March 8th, but his wife is always happy with her husband. Every time she mentions him, she speaks with pride. During meetings and parties, I catch her looking at her husband with affectionate eyes.
Why does a man never give his wife flowers or gifts his whole life but his wife is still happy?
It turns out that this man always cares about his wife down to the smallest detail. In the afternoon, after work, she dragged her feet on the porch because her shoe soles were loose. The next morning, when she put her shoes on, she was moved to see that he had secretly fixed them without her knowing. She always wanted to sleep on a bed with white and clean sheets. Knowing his wife's wishes, he bought 5 sets of beautiful sheets, all white.
He always washed the sheets separately to keep them white like new. He even lit scented candles for her to relax.
Every time his wife goes into the kitchen, he quietly checks and sharpens the knives. The knives are always sharp. When his wife "dances" in the kitchen, he plays a supporting role. As his wife cooks, he cleans the dishes, dishes, and kitchen utensils. After washing, he helps pick vegetables and arranges the dishes.
He thought that it was "very awkward" when his wife was mopping the floor while he was lying on the sofa, so he "looked for something to do while she was mopping the floor." If he wasn't cleaning the toilet, he would hang out the laundry, if he wasn't hanging out the laundry, he would clean up the furniture.
The little things just mentioned, more than anyone else, the wife knows that he does them out of love and care. The wife knows how lucky she is to be living with a husband who cherishes her so much. Therefore, on March 8th or other holidays, flowers and gifts, if there are any, it is fun, if there are none, it is okay. Simply, she has received "heart flowers" every day from her husband.
I also read a friend's sharing: "My husband, looks like he's really good. When my watch battery runs out, he knows and changes it right away. He also knows what size shoes and dress I wear. On March 8, he always proactively buys gifts a few days in advance. And he buys them with great care, spending a lot of time choosing."
Every March 8th, there is still a debate "Should we have flowers and gifts or not?", "Living together sincerely is enough, why do we need to elaborate", "Do women need gifts that much?"... The answer is already in the stories above.
Women do not demand gifts, what they really need is the love, affection, and care behind that gift.
