I think it's just the type of love that's different. Seems blue ones are for unrequited or like an admiration, so the love would be like an idolised love or admiration. And love that isn't reciprocated.
Whereas red would be a romantic love.
Just a theory tho(A game theory hehehe)
1) blue roses dont have a traditional meaning because theyre made up, theyre not real, theyre dyed white roses
2) IF some florists claim they have a meaning, it is usually true love that is unrequited
3) its not red means love blue means love, red means love blue means unrequited love, most rose meanings are made up, and theres always gonna be overlap
4) if the other manhua is adamant on blue *flowers* meaning something theyre making shit up because flower languages are flower specific not colour specific
I initially said blue roses in my comment and was referring only to blue roses, sorry about the mix up I guess I can see how you misunderstood since I used blue flowers after. he got his lover blue roses and was super exited abt giving them, after he left he immediately came back saying “I almost forgot to tell you what blue roses mean” but it cut before he could say.
I’ve seen unrequited but it’s just not the case for this couple that’s why I was curious. It’s not just this manhua either I’ve seen a lot of stories use blue roses but this manhua mentioned it having a meaning without giving it so I wanted to know.
I know blue roses don’t exist, the continuous use of them in fictional love stories just caught my attention.
thankyou that makes a little more sense, in the story I was reading it wasn’t unrequited love which is why I was confused! and he himself mentioned the meaning of the flowers while giving them to his lover so I was super curious.
If it was someone that he started off admiring or like the person that received them is older, i think that'd make sense. Or maybe it's symbolic to something like their first meeting or something they work with. But maybe it's not like too deep, just something he wanted to gift to admire the other person.
what r the meaning of blue roses? Is it something specific to korea? I used google but if blue means love and red means love then what’s the point + saw something abt unrequited love but another manhua i read w the use of blue flowers doesn’t fit that desc and were adamant abt blue flowers and the meaning behind them
