  - Thats fine except I paid money for those flowers I just want to make sure she got them - eag Apr 6, 20:28 6
    - No, subconsciously you want to use them as an excuse to talk to her. Assume they were delivered, and she'll call you when she's ready. - JaxSean Apr 6, 20:32 2
      - I say this because we've all been there: The next step is finding one of her hair clips in your car and convincing yourself you need to return it. nm - ralph wiggum Apr 6, 20:36 1

  - just be honest - moles Apr 6, 20:24
  - But yeah, I agree with below, don't call. That's a deal breaker. -- nm - MDH Apr 6, 20:24
- space means space - moles Apr 6, 20:21
- Just leave it alone. You'll find out eventually - otherwise you'll come off as overbearing. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 6, 20:21
- do not call. just assume they were delivered, and try to put it out of your mind. -- nm - prayformojo Apr 6, 20:21 4
