Just wondering what is more common... do women receive flowers only or flowers and another gift from their husbands/boyfriends on their birthdays? Men... what do you normally give?

On our anniversary, her birthday, and Valentine's day, she gets flowers, a card, and a gift.
On Mother's day, she gets a card and flowers.
Honest.
We men are all still waiting for you girls to celebrate March 14. (See below.) Hee Hee!

I don't think that most women receive flowers or two gifts. I think that it depends on the man and the woman.
It is quite a gift to just have a man remember and do anything particularly special for his woman.
More often than not my male interests have taken me out to dinner for my birthday. Some have given a card or flowers particularly if they are the mushy sort.
If I had to pick the most thoughtful things a man has done, it has been knowing exactly what I would like the most. Often times it isn't a gift. I think it is the thoughtfulness that matters the most.

My birthday is on Valentines Day. I am lucky if I get flowers and another gift. I figure they are 2 days in 1 and should both be celebrated. We have argued this many times. I am lucky if he takes the initiative to think of a gift for me.

I always get flowers or something on my birthday, now on valentines day that's a different story, but men are a little clueless, you have to tell them what you want sometimes. It would be nice to think that they just thought of you and were sensitive like that, but a lot of men just aren't. It doesn't mean that they don't love you, they just don't think that way.

I usually get flowers dinner and jewelry for my birthday from my husband.I'm not materialistic and I don't demand anything at all but he treats me very well to celebrate my life.But then again he gets me flowers about every other week too!! I guess this should make up for the times he's "less than perfect"

NORMALLY, I would take my woman out for a real nice dinner, at that time I have a florist deliver a bouquet of flowers(not roses) as they are way to over used, then I have certificate for her to use at a massage parlor (while I wait) then home were I have dessert waiting for her. (usually something chocolate that I made myself) Then after all is well and done, I draw her a warm bath, with her favorite bath solution(usually from Lush). After she is all dried off and in her favorite (NEW) silk bathrobe, I go down on her for at least 20 min(takes only two minutes for her to experience true pleasure) and than I let her go to sleep.

In the past I would remember from during the year what she liked
and give that as a gift,with a card & dinner.
Plus chase her around the bedroom.

I am lucky if my husband even remembers my birthday!! But flowers are nice! Some men are sweet and do things for their wives but then you have the ones who don't remember their own names....lol!!
