Wisdom is timeless; and when you have reached the top of the mountain, all "progression", regardless the direction, is downhill.

I have read enough of the posts,replies and comments
by the three of you to know I am
in the company of three of the brightest most articulate
women on FR and perhaps the whole world.
There is no doubt the three of you

Talk to a woman, and she is always ready willing and able, except that he just wants it at all the worst times. What, like at the supermarket?
Hey, it wasn't as if we were in the frozen food aisle.

I knew an MD and his wife who insisted that sex was best when praying in tongues/in The Spirit. I thought I'd heard it all. Guess not.

As a woman who understands what drove your girlfriends comments, I feel conflicted about your post.
I see how the comment, which she shouldn't have made, would kill the joy of giving.
Flowers ourchased on a whim as a stop-and-shop afterthought are fine, and a joy to receive out of the clear blue sky, especially from someone you want to love you.
Except...when that's all the thought that ever goes into the gesture.
I don't know how else to explain it to you other that to tell the secret code among women -
How much effort you put into a gift counts. It should be like a "kill" to impress us... your skill at the hunt matters.....because that establishes our worth to you, and among our peers getting flowers from their boyfriends, and proves your relative value as a provider and protector.
She's thinking, am I NEVER worth the effort for you to plan ahead, plot and plunder a bouquet made especially for me? The flowers ARE nice, but why do you always do it the EAASSSY way.
You say it's "always" late and night and the flower shop is closed - but florists are not always closed. You've had opportunity, one can call ahead and request a bouquet. Flowers can be delivered.
You only think of her when it's easy.
That reflects on how much you think of her and are trying to woo her.
Especially when there is a "gold standard" that young women secretly wish for...the exquisite bouquet hunted down by our dearest caveman, for no special occasion, because he wants a grand gesture for the grandest woman on earth.
Of course her words were cut you down and were counterproductive. She should have found another way to get the point across.
But I have to confess I would start to wonder after several stop-and-shop afterthought purchases, if you ever intended to go the full monty, if you even thought I was worth it.

Good points. I guess when you add up always picking up the tab for dinners, movies, outings, etc, the thought of overpaying a flower shop becomes less atrractive. But Iam a guy and we think that way.

Christ declared that a husband/wife's relationship, closeness was a parable, metaphor, parallel to His Love for us, The Church.
Why not?
It's clear S&M would be the 100% WRONG direction to intensify that intimacy, relationship!

Nothing personal, but I think you are probably off the mark. I think she just wants the fancy flowers from the big store. And the better jewelery from a better "brand" store.
If he brought her a cup of coffee she'd be embarassed that it wasn't from the french bakery down the road. I know and have known a gazillion women (and lately more and more men) like this. It's all about the status.
