Bloom and Wild - help!

Does anyone know if Bloom and Wild flowers have the note inside the box or attached to the outside?

Long story but it was an important day for me a couple of days ago and my partner had ordered me flowers from Bloom and Wild. As yet they haven’t arrived. I’m supposed to be going to stay with him tomorrow and my exH comes and stays at my house to spend time with the kids.

But if the flowers arrive and the note is easily visible he’ll open it and read it. Then he’ll be absolutely furious and probably be awful to dc. He’s not aware I’m seeing anyone and will go insane when he finds out. I’m now actually considering not going away as I hate the thought of him being angry and alone with dc.

Or does anyone know if they’re delivered by Royal Mail? If that’s the case I could speak to my postman and he’d hold onto them as I’m quite friendly with him.

Phone bloom & wild. As far as I can remember the note is inside.

ShirleyPhallus · 15/10/2020 12:26

I had some and the note was inside

Your ex sounds awful though. Poor kids if you think he’ll be horrible to them to get at you.

LurkerTurnedPoster · 15/10/2020 12:26

The note is inside and usually yes they're delivered by royal mail.

The note is inside.

The note is inside but they are quite visibly flowers from the design of the box. Is he the type to open a box of flowers out of curiosity or more likely to let them die?

Cloud21 · 15/10/2020 12:54

Definitely inside & Royal Mail.
Hope you’re ok x

Note is inside but branding is on the box. Good luck with whatever yiur important day is. Hope you're OK as ex sounds controlling.

The issue here isn't the note...

FeckArseDrinkGirls · 15/10/2020 13:03

I don’t think he’d open the flowers, he’s more likely to let them die. It was the anniversary of my dad’s death so he wouldn’t be too curious if flowers arrived as I’ve already got a couple of vases round the house that people have sent me. Hopefully I’ll catch the postman today, if not I think I’ll just stay at home until the flowers arrive. I’ll be uncomfortable enough leaving dc with him, definitely won’t be able to relax if there’s a chance he’d find out I’m seeing someone.

Now I feel really bad as I haven’t been with partner that long. He bought me a bunch of flowers on the anniversary of my dad’s death then booked a hotel for us this weekend as a treat. And now I’m probably going to cancel on h I’m Sad.

Why are you letting and allowing your ex to control and dictate your life?

Surely that's the reason he is your ex, to escape such mental behaviour

FelicityPike · 15/10/2020 13:13

Why would your ex be angry?
Surely he knows you have a boyfriend and surely he knows of the anniversary?

FeckArseDrinkGirls · 15/10/2020 13:25

He knows the anniversary which is why I don’t think he’d actually open the flowers. We only separated at the end of last year and he only properly moved out in May. He doesn’t know I’m seeing anyone else and is convinced that we’re going to get back together.

I don’t want to be letting ex control my life. But he gets to see the kids and is using them as a means to get to me. I’m deeply uncomfortable about leaving dc with him alone as it is but not much I can do about it.

The note is on the inside but the box is very clear it's flowers.

Why would you have to cancel the weekend away?

ScarMatty · 15/10/2020 14:53

I think you need to stop allowing your ex into your house and sort out a visit with a solicitor

FelicityPike · 15/10/2020 15:21

Where does he think you’re going?
Does he normally come and “watch” the children in your house?
Why doesn’t he take them to his for his contact? That needs sorted and quickly!

FeckArseDrinkGirls · 15/10/2020 16:29

Flowers arrived so all sorted, phew!

Dh has a flat in London and I live in Devon so, for now at least, he’s been coming to stay here EOW and I’ve buggered off to my DM’s a few miles away. Not a long term solution but I’m not happy about them using public transport to get to London while the CV situation is what it is. Hopefully once that’s calmed down a bit they can go to him once a month and he can rent a cottage nearby once a month.
