"OK, so a beautiful bouquet just arrived on your desk at work (so unexpected!) and your first thought is, Aw! Your second thought is: Wait, what does this mean? We&amp;#x27;ll, there&amp;#x27;s no one better than a florist to decode a guy&amp;#x27;s flower intentions. Eric Buterbaugh, chief floral designer for The Bouqs, has worked with big names like Rachel Zoe, Nicole Richie, and Molly Sims (and he even did the weddings of Demi Moore, Salma Hayek, and Paul McCartney). But more important than working with celebrities, he fields floral requests for regular guys all the time. And today, he&amp;#x27;s explaining what some popular bouquet choices typically mean. Red Roses = I&amp;#x27;m in Love &amp;quot;A guy who is head over heels in love will always pick red roses... And the bigger the better&amp;amp;mdash;it is the clearest message of all.&amp;quot; Cute, right? Non-Red Roses: I Like You a Lot &amp;quot;A guy who really likes someone but is maybe in a newer relationship and doesn&amp;#x27;t want to scare her off or look too interested will send roses...but will send any color other than red. He would most likely pick a color that he knows she likes.&amp;quot; So that explains the pink roses on your desk from that new guy. Calla Lillies = I&amp;#x27;m Having Fun You know those relationships that are going well, and you like each other but still aren&amp;#x27;t quite sure where it&amp;#x27;s going? &amp;quot;A guy who is dating someone he likes will send calla lilies. It is thoughtful, but there is not too much meaning behind it.&amp;quot; Your Favorite Flower = I Want to Get More Serious OK, so you adore peonies, and somehow he figured this out (perhaps by scanning your Instagram photos/asking your best friend) and sent you a bouquet of them? He wants to show you how much he cares: &amp;quot;A thoughtful guy who is dating someone he really likes and wants to show her how much he cares will send her very favorite flower.&amp;quot; Mixed Bouquet = I&amp;#x27;m Not Too Into This (or Just Really, Really Lazy) Are you the recipient of a random mixed bouquet from the first supermarket he passed on his way to pick you up? &amp;quot;A guy who is dating someone he likes to sleep with and isn&amp;#x27;t too serious about (just doesn&amp;#x27;t want to be in the doghouse) will send a generic mixed bouquet.&amp;quot; As long as you don&amp;#x27;t mind, there&amp;#x27;s nothing wrong with that. But if you&amp;#x27;re looking for something serious (or someone more, um, thoughtful), it might be a good time to start seeing other people. What V-Day flowers do you all hope to get this year? Anything you love (or hate)?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
