Do men appreciate getting flowers delivered, or can you suggest another idea?
My boyfriend lives a long way away, I want to do something sweet for him today, he has been having a bad day. Would it be strange to send him flowers, or do men appreciate them? What other ideas do you have?
Some guys do, but others like mine find it a useless waste of cash. If he’s a romantic guy who likes gifts and little tidbits that remind his space of you, then he may enjoy the flowers. But if he’s a practical guy who doesn’t really care for presents unless he chose it himself and he could use it, then sending him flowers might become a disappointing experience.
If I were you, I’d be more likely to send him a nice parcel with stuff he could use. Get a nice basket (or box) and fill it with a smiley face mug, box of hot chocolate sachets, toaster tarts, food bars, instant ramen, and a cute framed couple photo. You can easily pick these up as you do the groceries! That would light up the day of most guys even when they’re not a giftsy person, and definitely has a greater chance of success than flowers.
Your man must be lucky to have such a thoughtful girlfriend like you.
Food
Flowers are nice, but he might be happier with a pizza you order for him and say "I made you dinner"…

I’ve sent my husband flowers before and he loved them
It’s something that men won’t do for themselves but most like having them around –
At least the vast amount of men I’m in contact with.

Flowers die, I’d send him a teddy-gram. He can keep it on his bed to remind him of you

I filled mine with two boxes of instant cereal and a smiley face air freshener, he liked it
I think it would be cool for my woman to have a pizza delivered to me before lunch time.
Maybe call and ask if he had his break yet, if not ask when, and have it their a couple minutes before that time. Such a good suprise.
Even cooler would be a back massage
