So flowers it is. I don't want to drop them off and it doesn't seem Walmart delivers. So I will call and find a flower shop. Maybe just a summer time bouquet?

I would have already drug her to the range but the weather has been hot. I want her to enjoy the experience as much as possible so I am holding out for a 70-something day instead of wandering out as satan's butthole burns us alive.
Aha the lady is SMART, she reads people well too!!!!!!
She is playing a GrandMaster chess game.

But the problem is, many women start to develop feelings and eventually may want more than something casual.
I’d go with wildflowers or sunflowers. Roses have pressure.
That was my thought as well. Business gathering. Looking for others she could network with.
Glad you had a good time, sure sounds like it. Even if a little uncomfortable.
I agree and that explains the charity event, but not the "Tasting Menu" meal thing. However she did make it sound like that was a special occasion and perhaps intended to show her daughter the finer side of life. She just ended up taking me.
How about this one? It's called Radiant Sunshine and it's $49.99 plus tax/delivery.
Also how about this for the card: "On my mind" and "xoxo" but no name or anything else?

Screams I love you to me. Looked up yellow rose and it says platonic friendship. I still wouldn't do it, this soon.

IMO, things are moving along rapidly. I'm going to bet the flowers are already ordered. Does she have a cat? Some cats don't do well with lilies and other flowers, so be careful of that.
In the store yesterday I saw some beautiful bouquets, one was white, pink and blue. LOL I almost bought it for myself.
Maybe, just maybe, you have never met the right person. Stranger things have happened.

I haven't order yet, but I am probably going to even with @Peepaw from Tex warning. I picked out the yellow because it's not supposed to be a love thing. Pushing the friends with benefits lifestyle.
No cats, no pets at all anymore.
This lady is definitely different than every other female human I have personally encountered. At this point I sort of feel like I am going for the ride just to see where it takes me. I don't have much else going on in my life other than job opportunities.
It is a lovely bouquet. I would lean towards multi color. Lots of variety.
Monotone bouquets remind me of first communions, weddings and other religious events. But I’m not receiving them so it’s not for me to have an opinion. Even though I’m sharing one now.

xoxo means love in my opinion.
on my mind, well, that means something else.
Myself, I wouldn't read anything into the colors.

I thought it meant hugs and kisses. The internet is lying to me!
It was a chance to see if he could dress up properly and do the do!! Plus, her ex or someone who knows him was probably there! Smart move on her part!!
Red, pink or yellow. Flowers be Flower's. More so when given by a single man to a single lady. It’s generally seen a sign of commitment and love with single ladies. But wiser ladies be more astute to the wiles of the devil even when it comes to flowers. The yellow rose of Texas does look down upon you now. It is to be honoured and not dishonoured. Choose wisely your colour. Perhaps scarlet for you would be a better colour choice : )

XOXO - It looks like it depends on what decade, country, state, etc you were born. Just go ahead and scratch off all of my advice. I’m obviously an old lady with values of the decades before I was born.

you used the words - 'I protect'
that was enough for her to begin to gulf about herself.
that lady knew exactly what she wanted and what she desired.

I sent the same bouquet of flowers as pictured above in the blue mason jar, only I asked them to mix up the colors but avoided red and dark colors. Which made the cost go up but the message less confusing. I skipped the xoxo on the card and just went with 'Always on my mind'. I am sure I will hear the minute she gets them. I am now getting good morning texts, good night texts, and several other texts in between. No one will ever accuse her of being a lackluster communicator. I am glad I have unlimited texting through my phone plan.
Forgot to mention I called pops last night. It had been a couple weeks. Got the old "What happened to the brown girl?" and "Maybe I will give her a call." I thought I had told him that she was gone but either I didn't or he forgot. More likely he was distracted or didn't care. Has happened before. Before I got to the new Lady he had to tell me all of his thoughts on Kamala Harris. Hint, they were not positive. When I told him about the new lady I just got "Well don't ******* tell her where you live" then eventually "Sounds like she's got money, maybe it's time to buy a ring." He has a new lady friend too, someone from the social space at his condo complex. "If I play my cards right, I might need another hip replacement." I would invite him to join the forum and start a thread but I am 100% certain he would be banned within a few days.
Flowers before sex is smart!

Good. I feel outgunned with this one, so smart helps.
Yes..this is true..which is why checking in on that at some point would be a good idea so they are both on the same page.
The flowers have arrived. Text "Wow! They are beautiful! Thank you so much! You are always on my mind too." and three kissing emojis. Then like 15 seconds later, "First time someone has sent me flowers in years" and a tear dropping from an eye face emoji. I sent back a standard "you're welcome" response and included "anything I can do to bring a little more joy into your day." She replied "This 2 day a week thing isn't enough time together." Next thing you know we're meeting for lunch tomorrow at a place near her business. Lunch only though, she is working.
I don’t text, which is good because I’d have sent a text “flowers?"
Or.... I could have texted that picture of the flowers.... and saved some money.
For 2 seconds that sounded like a good idea. This is why I need help.
There would never be a "third date", lol!

It didn’t work so well with the First Lady.
