I think one flower might be ok.
A full bouquet though is just being too clingy from the start.

I went with flowers once on the first date, and though it went well then, it’s not something I’d do again. We’d known each other for a few months prior to dating and the whole thing was rather formal, so flowers fit well, but under most circumstances I would never buy flowers.

Flowers on first date is already too much unless you already know a person prior the meeting, say she’s a friend of a friend that you met a few times before actually going on a date.

I think its all in the presentation. If you just whip out a huge bouquet of flowers as soon as you knock on the door, thats reminiscent of a magician’s act or something. But a single flower can be given sweetly, more of a “I was thinking of you and wanted you to remember me by something.” A whole bouquet on the first date is like trying to buy someone’s love or win them over with flowers and gifts. You would be relying too much on the flower and not enough on wit and charm. A single flower is a great first date gift, if done correctly.

I’ve never brought flowers to a date. Never. I’m gay, and I don’t really think that guys (even the gay ones) like flowers. Do they?

And I think that an entire bouquet is a little creepy. I’d even say that a single flower on the first date is a little odd.

Flowers on the first date are definitely creepy, or any other gift for that matter. For our parents and grandparents, it may have been the right thing to do but today it’s a sure way to creep a girl out!
