Fave’s reaction to the anonymous flower delivery triggered different reactions online, with users debating the value of the gesture and how gifts should be received.
X user @itsSh0la said the sender was fortunate not to have included personal details with the gift, writing:
“On the other hand, the dude who sent this flower to her is lucky he didn’t put his contact or personal details on it. Imagine this level of humiliation with a face on it. God saved him.”
The user also criticized spending money on flowers, claiming many Nigerian women do not value the gesture beyond social media appearances.
“No Nigerian woman likes flowers, stop wasting your money. Ask your girl about the flower you got her 6 months ago? She probably doesn’t even know where it is anymore.”
Meanwhile, @santaluceya questioned why some men continue giving gifts to people they believe may not appreciate them.
“Men will never learn. That is my problem. You people don’t learn. Why do you give things to women that would never appreciate and respect you?”
However, @OurFavOnlineDoc said the same people who often emphasize the importance of intentions were now mocking the same gesture.
He wrote: “It’s the thought that counts. It’s the intention that matters. It’s not about the money but the gesture and the heart.”
He added: “Anyway, as you see, the same crooks who say these things are the ones now mocking good intentions and good gestures.”
