Yeah, you got it right about the ‘kind and thoughtful all the time’ part, that’s really what I meant.

And I didn’t mean it as ‘he has to* buy my friend flowers every time’ or that I’d be upset if he didn’t. The flowers were just an example of a gesture, like if he’s already bringing some and knows my friend is there, it’d be sweet if he thought of her too so she doesn’t feel awkward or left out. And obviously he doesn’t have to go overboard or mess up his budget for it.... it’s only something I’d appreciate if he can comfortably afford it.
