Why Flowers Are Still the Safest Valentine’s Gesture (Even If You’re Not “Romantic”)
Not everyone feels comfortable with big romantic gestures.
That doesn’t mean they care less. Often, it means they care enough to worry about getting it wrong.
Flowers work because they don’t require performance. There’s no speech. No timing. No expectation to explain.
They’re received, not evaluated.
We’ve seen time and again that people who describe themselves as “not romantic” choose flowers because they communicate care without asking the giver to be someone they’re not.
That’s why flowers endure. Not because they’re extravagant, but because they’re emotionally safe.
