Girls! Valentine Card Suggestion - shoot me down guys!
Discussion
I wish to give a valentine's card to a lady who is a tuff nutt to crack (so to speak). Think she just needs softening up.
Ordered and received card off t'internet. Front looks like a photo. It's of a pile of rose petals and the person's name is spelt out in said petals too. . .very realistic, all done by 'puter you know. Her name is very unique and I doubt many guys will know how to spell it so she'll probably (hopefully) figure out its me.
The thing is I dont want any mention of "love" in the card's text so was thinking of leaving it blank save for maybe a "X".
I also had the daft idea of sticking a single freeze-dried rose petal inside as well stuck with a piece of dbl-sided tape.
Now will this leave her with the impression that my feelings are too strong, and therefore should I forget that idea.
The impression I want to leave is that I am there for her should she ever want to start something more serious over and above a friendship!?
I'll allow a half dozen typical PH responses before wanting genuine answers

How about a poem?
I wish you were my Valentine
Though I may not be yours,
And I may, in my ignorance,
Be speaking to closed doors.
I have no inkling of your heart,
No hint what you might say;
But when I think of you the sun
Will just not go away.
There is in you a loveliness
That makes my darkness shine,
And so I'll wait, if wait I must,
To be your Valentine.
I wish you were my Valentine
Though I may not be yours,
And I may, in my ignorance,
Be speaking to closed doors.
I have no inkling of your heart,

But when I think of you the sun
Will just not go away.
There is in you a loveliness
That makes my darkness shine,
And so I'll wait, if wait I must,
To be your Valentine.

I thought of sending you a card,
And then maybe a flower.
But instead I asked PH for their views.
Have you been up the Oxo Tower?

IMHO (and I am a guy so girls may correct me)
Thoughtful, romantic gestures like that would actually send a stronger "I want you" signal than say a pair of Tiffany's earrings...
So ditch the petal then?Thoughtful, romantic gestures like that would actually send a stronger "I want you" signal than say a pair of Tiffany's earrings...
Basically, if she is really special and you feel that you two, do connect - she should, in theory, reciprocate.
If she is already attracted to you on some level, your card will not ruin your chances.
Wish you luck!

[Pisses on romantic bonfie] BTW: As she is a "tuff nut to crack" have you thought your feelings towards her may not be mutual, and a card with her name spelled out in blood (or whatever it is)may be unwlecome. [/pisses on romantic bonfire}
