Equivalent of giving a guy flowers

[Anonymous]

I second the favorite snack suggestion. My husband loves black licorice, so once in a while I buy him some really high quality licorice. Nice little gesture that shows care and thought, whatever the treat.

Before someone suggests sex or a blow job, all bases are already covered there.

I once send flowers to a man and he told me he was so touched because he had never received flowers as a gift and he loved them. Send him a bouquet to his office, guarantee you, he will love them.

Haha. OP here. Your post made me laugh.

I've thought about having a nice lunch delivered to his office, but he works in a secure facility, so that won't work. Maybe I'll try the beer, but he is not into dark/hoppy/heavy or high alcohol content brews. He actually really likes Blue Moon. I am more into the crafty beers than he is.

That's fine. If he likes Blue Moon, there are lots of others like it: http://whiskeygoldmine.com/beer-reviews-best-beers-beer-forum/ale-belgian-ale-pale-ale-ipa-porter-imperial-stout-esb/belgian-beers-belgian-ales/the-top-ten-belgian-whites-blanche-de-bruselles-witbier-hoegaarden-ommegang-victory/

I am a man and I liked it when someone sent me flowers, but mostly it was the meaning behind gesture and not the gift itself. Flowers are kind of a unique gesture.

Please send him flowers! Kidding - don't do it unless you want his guy coworkers to abuse him for the next year! We have a guy in our office and a year later people still rib him about receiving flowers from his wife. The women coworkers will think you're an incredible wife, but the guys will never let him forget it! Stick with beer!

OP here. I can't have anything delivered to his office since he works in a secure facility, so don't worry, he is off the hook for getting flowers. Really though, he works with a bunch of extreme nerds, so I can't imagine them having much room to rib him. He is a nerd too, but I suspect he is one of the cooler ones.

Thank you to the PP who gave me the beer link. That seems like a good starting point.
