Valentine’s was yesterday, and in the spirit of it, I (a girl) decided to gift my new friend a bouquet of red roses because she once mentioned she’d never received flowers before. I thought it would be a sweet, wholesome gesture.

She absolutely loved them. Smiling, hugging me, taking pictures, smelling them every five seconds. I was feeling like Best Friend of the Year.

About 20 minutes later… she starts sneezing. Then her eyes water. Then her nose gets stuffy. Turns out she’s mildly allergic to roses.

So yeah. Instead of just giving her first flowers, I also accidentally gave her the discovery of a new allergy. She refused to throw them away because “they’re my first flowers,” so they’re still sitting by her window like dramatic forbidden romance.

She’s fine now. Just mildly allergic.

TL;DR: Gave my friend her first-ever red roses for Valentine’s yesterday. Accidentally conducted an allergy test.
