A South African man found a creative way to show appreciation in a video posted on 3 August, in which he's presenting a woman with a bouquet made entirely of leafy greens rather than the traditional flowers.

TikToker @tsirelezow captured the outdoor moment on video. The clip shows the man kneeling dramatically to hand over the spinach while onlookers erupt in laughter and cheer him on.

The woman accepted the gift, and the creator later confirmed in the comments that both of them came out ahead:

"They are just beautiful... we both benefited from these flowers."

Understanding the seven types of love

Love can take many forms, including friendships, family bonds, romance, and self-connection. Ancient Greeks identified seven types: eros (passion), philia (friendship), storge (family), agape (selfless love), ludus (playfulness), pragma (enduring love), and philautia (self-love), each reflecting different emotional connections and experiences.
