AITA Bought my girlfriend flowers bouquet and she didn’t liked it

I don’t know what to feel.

I gave my gf a bouquet of flowers with sunflowers and some daisies on the side (I assume they’re daisies but I am not sure).

Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinions…

She says that the bouquet looks like funeral flowers and says she’ll just find an angle so it could be postable on her social medias.

I argue it’s not ugly, and it looks beautiful.

I tried to pick the best bouquet I can afford and this hurts my feelings.

I told her that she kind of ruined my day 🙁

While it’s clear he had good intentions, her dismissive reaction to the gesture has left him feeling down, wondering if it was worth the effort.

What does Reddit think of this reaction?

This person says to run. FAR.
