All I can do is answer for myself ......... so in considering my experiences ... if its a nice comment - I'll respond back ......... if the person is being rude - sometimes I blast him, but most times now I'll ignore them because its really not worth the effort.

I appreciate "original" thoughts .......... not just a comment from the drop down box (think that is very tacky)

I usually reply to the flowers I get from people on the forums who seem sane or semi-sane.

But, if I get flowers from people I don't know with a oneliner message that is supposed to be funny. BUT, I don't think it's funny at all...then I reply with an evil flower and block them so's they can't answer me back rolling on the floor laughing & if I get the one that says "Do you believe in love at first sight" barf I just block them straightaway.

I would advise that you cut a little off the stem and then put the flowers in a vase with a fresh water,, if you wish to save them longer you can latter hang them to dry upside down and keep them that way....especially if they are from a very special person.
You can also reciprocate by returning the gesture.,,,or a "thank you" card.

If it's a comment actually from someone, I usually respond, even if just to say thank you.

If the comment is one of the canned ones, I usually ignore it.

unless it is from someone I know or at least in my age range, I will answer but if he is a young guy and from a country I cannot even pronounce I will just delete it.

If it says....... Im into older women....I delete

If it says...god has decided we should get married...I delete
