Flowers SENT to my boyfriend's HOME or OFFICE?

My boyfriend recently got a new job as an college educator in a conservative environment, and I want to surprise him by sending him flowers. The question I have is whether I should send them to his house or his new office? If I had them sent to his house then I can send about anything with any message, but the flowers are meant for his new office. If I sent them to his new office, it might raise questions. Any suggestions?

Flowers SENT to my boyfriend's HOME or OFFICE?
Send them to work with a note, "congratulations on your new job" and sign your name...but I would not send flowers...send a plant instead. More suitable for this type thing. Don't do anything that he will have to "explain." Not good taste!
Reply:do NOT send flowers to his office, he will not appreciate the gesture. it shows a lack of concern for his career, and like it or not some jobs require discretion. i think you also (subconsciously) have an alterior motive, it would put you in a place he's forced to keep you out of. do not feel threatened or left out because of this, being supportive of those we love means having to swallow hard and get over it sometimes.plus straight men do not EVER get flowers for the office, to them flowers=pansy silly but true lololol..........good luck
Reply:The key word you used is "conservative". Let him decide if and when he wants to come out to his colleagues. That is his business. He just got the job - let him keep it!





Send the flowers to his house.





I like the idea of an office plant that people mentioned above! Wish I had thought of it myself! You could always give him a sign with his name and new title on it or a gift certificate.
Reply:georgie-pooh, my house of course
Reply:if he isn't out, then to his home. if he is out, to his office. that simple. :)
Reply:Flowers for the home, a Plant for the office.
Reply:Send to his house with a note telling him to bring it to work
Reply:if he is ''out'' office





oh he is a lucky thing!
Reply:send a plant. plants are more suitable for office environments than flowers are. plus, flowers dont stay fresh and die. a plant if taken well care of will last much longer.
Reply:LOL I love you
Reply:If he's out at work, send them there. My partner loves it when I send him flowers - he says all the women in the office go "How come my husband never sends ME flowers" and stuff like that.





If he's closetted at work, then obviously DON'T send them there!
Reply:If they're that conservative at the college, maybe don't sign you're name just put "I'm proud of you" or love you or something. That totally sucks that you even have to worry this crap. Good luck!
Reply:I like the idea of sending them to his office, but of course if people there are too conservative, they will wonder. I'd suggest send a plant or a fruit basket with a neutral message like "congratulations on your new job." And, send the flowers to his house, who says you can't do both? :)
Reply:Just use your initials..leave it up to him how he wants to explain it.
Reply:becareful as to what you say but my vote is the office.
Reply:If you want to send something work send a cookie bouquet that are really nice and you are saying the same think but it is not too gay...
Reply:send the flowers to the office and if he is fired or questions arise sue them .


THIS is america and lawyers need work too.
Reply:Office - no reason to fully sign the card you can just put an initial. He should be able to figure out from where they came!
Reply:To his house, don't send a boy flowers to the office
Reply:If you send to the office, send a plant or a nice fruit basket instead.





No eyebrows raised on those.
Reply:Send them to his house!





I made the mistake of putting a note in my b/f's lunch, and some other people at his job opened it and posted the note on the community bullitin board for all to see.





Don't make the same mistake I did, please!
Reply:Send him a nice plant,not flowers, for his office ,to his office with just a note of congratulations ,its done often and is very accepted
