Not many of us feel comfortable expressing our love and affection. I personally find it very difficult. I could not even say a simple "I missed you" to my brother, whom I had not seen for over a year. But I had something that did the trick for me, Flowers, Words were not needed, those flowers said it all.

There are a numerous occasions where you can send flowers. Your best friend just gave birth to a baby, your brother has got a promotion, your parents' wedding anniversary, sister's wedding, your sister-in-law's birthday, Mother's Day, the reasons are plenty! But that doesn't mean that you have to wait for an occasion to send flowers. Sweet affections flowers sent as a surprise are even more fun.

My husband and I travel a lot because of our work. We spend days or sometimes even weeks apart not seeing each other. Those are the times that I miss him the most and I'm sure he feels the same. I just order a lovely gerbera daisy bouquet, as daisies are his favorite, from OnlineFlowers and send it to him when he is least expecting it. It is this element of surprise that keeps our relationship alive
