i think flowers for guys are unnecessary (unless he likes them..)
as for a grad gift, i know this might sound lame but a frame for his graduation diploma. you'd be surprised how expensive those frames can be!

plus a night of sex is always nice no matter the celebration.

A watch is usually a safe bet, Cufflinks maybe, a good money clip with something engraved, etc. Shit like that. Unless it's a Master's or PHD most guys don't give a shit, I wouldn't frame it. Anyone can get a Bachelor's degree. Flowers are a bit weird though.

Exactly. Most of my friends were bent on other professional degrees and didn't even bother going to their Bachelor graduation ceremony.

to tell you the truth, that was the ONLY thing i HAD to buy before i left SFU.
i told myself, "SFU, u have ripped me off in these 4 yrs, i will let u rip me off the LAST TIME". i bought the most expensive picture frame. Cause if u don't, i'll be just a piece of paper that u'll never be able to put up.
Flower for a guy is not necessay but it's nice with pictures. (oh, get it from safeway, not on SFU)

great ideas, but its more like a bday, celebration gift. Plus, 90% of the time girls get gay ass shit the guy has to pretend to like.

where are you looking? the ones they were selling for mine were from 120-300!!

Fortunately I was at the costco in the states and found a couple for like 20bucks for solid mahogany, and bought the medallion off the company's website to save myself like 90bucks

Haven't you noticed that all the responses in this thread have said that flowers for a guy is kinda weird?

Since you know your guy quite well, does he even like flowers? I know I wouldn't want flowers!

+1. No to flowers please, unless you know for a fact that he LIKES them. You wouldn't want him to be the only one guy with flowers at grad would you?

I love flowers!

It's always nice when a girl opens the door for you, pays for dinner, or buys you flowers!

it doesn't really matter what item my gf gives me on my convocation. i'd be happy with anything she gave me, as long as it wasn't a mcdonalds coupon or something.

is that hint enough?

by the way when guys say weird to give flowers to a guy, the term weird is not the same term that women use.

when women use it they mean weirdo

when guys use it they mean unusual, but not necessarily bad, like out of the ordinary.

trust me, it doesnt matter what you give your bf.

Holy shit, I just realized that you're right (once again). I did mean weird, in the sense that it's unusual or out of the ordinary...

I'm sure your BF is not me but as for me if I were to receive flowers regardless whether I want them or not, I would honestly not care what type they are. What's important is that you were the one who went out and picked them. So I suppose the question is what types of flowers are appropriate for graduation, and I have no idea about that.
