There beautiful, they smell great, there more romantic.. Feels like ur man had to go to a little trouble to get them. They seem more mature. Who wants the calories from chocolate????

Because they soon die, just like he did

Flowers are more personal. Everyone has a favorite flower that so if you get your significant other that flower it shows that you listen. Also getting a flower arrangements shows them their own beauty

So many people give candy as gifts - but this is really hard for those who are trying to be healthy/lose weight/eat less sugar. For me chocolate is such a temptation and can easily throw me off track.

Flowers elicit such strong emotions of love and thoughtfulness, making them a great gift to express how we feel about someone special. I enjoy chocolate, but flowers have a more lasting impression.

Flowers are beautiful beyond words, and don't have diet impact.

As a lesbian with and wife and a one year old i love to give and receive flowers to my one true love Maren

I love flowers, possibly because my grandpa had an amazing Rose garden that I loved to walk through when I was little.

A lot of different kinds, smell good, more thoughtful

Guilt free

Neither are my gift of choice, but I like flowers more than chocolate. I'd rather receive nothing for such a frivolous day.
