My ex (F24) and I (M29) broke up about 5 months ago after being together for about 1.5 years. We left things on pretty bad terms. I messed up, I got dumped, we tried to work it out, ended up making it worse. The usual. Today I randomly got the impulse to have Lily flowers delivered to her at work. IMMEDIATELY, I realize this was a terrible idea because the most likely response is for her to get PISSED. So I try to cancel the order, only to be told by the automated answering machine of the florist company that same day deliveries can not be canceled. A few hours later I get an email update saying due to having to replace a certain color of flower in the set, the flowers would get delivered tomorrow. Thinking since it’s no longer a same day delivery, I try to cancel again only to still be told no by the robot answering machine. I DON’T EVEN KNOW IF SHE WORKS TOMORROW. And to make it worse, I had the late realization that Lilies are severely toxic to cats, and she works at a veterinary clinic.

TL;DR I got the impulse to send flowers to my ex at work, and can’t cancel the order. The flowers are toxic to the animals she works with
