Anyone ever try sprinkling rose petals on the bed to surprise your lover? I was thinking about trying it to surprise my girlfriend...is this a good idea, any problems with it?

Jonsgirl

I did that once for my husband. Sprinkled them all over the house, actually. He thought it was really sweet.
The only bad part was getting out of bed to clean them up later.

Messy. But fun.

Come to think about it, most of the really fun stuff is messy...

I made a bathtub filled with whole milk, rose peddles-and lavender...The whole milk helps the skin, the roses scented the mind and the candles, Oh the many candles..Tub sex.

As far as the bed, well I gave her a message with over a pint of extra virgin oil swishing around..(I used a tarp for coving my bed) WOW...Olive oil sex, yum!

I did that a few times. I leave a trail of petals to the bedroom. Then I have them all over the bed. They are realy soft on her skin. It is nice to take a petal and slowly run it all over her. Start on her face (chheks, ears, etc.) then down her nech, circle her breasts. Get the idea. I think she will enjoy it. Don't forget the candles!! Have fun.
PS. As for the mess? We never have one. Maybe a petal or two gets stuck to her, but no stains or anything like that.

I think just about any chick would love that. I haven't done it for my wife yet, but I will at some point in the future cause I know it would drive her crazy!

OMG?! What I wouldn't give for such a nice surprise!

hmm, my gf and i are finaly home, but our houses are so hectic with thanksgiving and all, so we rented a hotel room for today/tonight. I think ill stop by the flower shop and see if i can get some rose petals. I think im going to check into the room, put petals everywhere, then when she gets off work well meet up and goto the hotel, and when she sees it ill go off her reaction...

Every couple needs something like this every month or so. One night were you do something out of the way for your woman.

The key is foreplay. Blindfolding with candles and roses is awsome, being blind increases her other senses. The scent of the candles and roses, the feel of the pedals teasing her, and the faint glow that seeps through her blindfold. I know, sounds corney but one night of this erases any retarded things you have done in the past 3 weeks.

I love the way rose petals feel... I've never had anything like that happen yet, but I have an extremely active imagination. And a hint for the guys... go to a flower shop and buy a bag of just rose petals...not too expensive, but worth it.

I went to the flower store and it a box of petals was about 1.5 dozen roses worth for 25 dollars, so naturaly i just decided to get 2 dozens of short stem roses for 9.99 each. I took off the petals off of 23 roses, and spread them on the white sheets of the bed. I tied the bow from the 2 dozen roses on the door handel of our hotel room. Then she met me at the hotel, i went down to meet her, and i surprised her with the single rose. Then i gave her the key and we walked up to the 2nd floor, and i made her guess what room it was (naturally she found it to be the one with the bow on it). She had the biggest smile once she saw the petals all over the bed, things were great from there. I also bought some chocolate cake frosting, and we had a nice midnight snack with that Overall it was a great night, pretty wild. The first time we went at it, we just went at it ontop of the roses, they were cold and for forplay i sprinkled them over her and used them all over her body. It was a bit messy, the sheets got some stains from the roses (it was a hotel, i hope they dont charge me lol)....but other then that, we both smelt like yummy roses If you havent tried it yet, you really should

crossova

lol. aww give it a try.

Amano

Phant84

One night I tried to suprise my wife with lit candles, rosepetals on the bed (a "few" whole roses too) and "Bed of roses" (Bon Jovi) on the stereo.
My plan was
1. Suprise her
2. ....do I really need to explain this??
3. Fall asleep exhausted


I waited.....
...and waited...
...and waited...

at last she came home - exhausted. She went allmost straight to bed - and fell asleep...

She felt really bad about it - but there were some major trouble at work and she was allready weared out by her cold.

So good luck - it's very romantic, but be prepared for a different outcome

I would love for something like that to happen for me! I love roses and that would just be so damn sexy!

little_tippler

That sounds like a really thoughtful surprise to me...although i wouldn't know where to go about buying that many rose petals around here. Anyone who gets to be surprised that way is very lucky, and loved.

Most florist will have something like this. A quick google turned this up too: http://www.petaltoss.com/
Im not sure how much having them frozen will change their feel, but it says that prevents staining...

Locs

Had a girl do that for me.

She a nice white oriental rug. Bad idea. Not sure if it was the actual rose petals or some spray they put on them to keep them red. Either way, it wasnt pretty after we were done.

kajagoogoo

shortynickel

amonkie

Any guy (or girl!) who's willing to put in the time to do something like this, or any other romantic thing gets a big kiss from me - even if it never happens to me. Thanks for making the lives of your SO so special
