Should I Wish Him A Happy Birthday Still

Would you wish your ex a happy birthday?

It's tomorrow.

We broke up over a year ago and we have talked maybe four times since then. But he randomly messaged me like... two weeks ago. And since then I've been thinking about him. (Grr.) Should I message him? Call him? Ignore him? What would you do?

If an ex wished you happy birthday?

I don't see any reason to not wish him a happy birthday. An ex is still someone that you spent a significant amount of time and experienced a deep level of intimacy with. Acknowledging his birthday even when he didn't acknowledge your's makes you the "bigger man" and will possibly bring to his attention the lack of sentiment he expressed to you. He may not have said anything about your's simply because of how awkward it would be out of the blue after 6 months of silence. However, you expressing b-day wishes to him could open up the doors of communication again. And doing it via email or internet is a very unobtrusive way to do so. Best of luck, and happy belated birthday!!!

Do you wish your ex happy birthday?

Yes, most definitely wish him a happy birthday.
It shows to him, you still remember/ care.
And maybe it will make the situation less awkward.
How would you feel if it was your birthday and he didnt wish you a happy birthday?
Go for it. You'll never know until you try.

Should I wish my ex-boyfriend a happy birthday?

Unless you two still hang out as friends, I'd say no for your own sake. Trust me, I've been in similar situations before.

You may find yourself getting really hurt if he gives you a cold or indifferent response. The worst thing that can happen is that he might think you're stalking him, no matter what your good intentions are.

In the end it will only make you more sad, especially if you're trying to get over him.

However, don't feel this will be the last relationship you'll ever have though. Always believe that you'll find someone else who will cherish everything you have to offer.

SHOULD I IGNORE MY EX OR WISH HIM HAPPY BIRTHDAY?

Almost 5 years is a long time! If you still have feelings for him, you could send him a simple text message, if that feels right to you. Or, if its more important that you sort of "get under his skin", then Id skip it all together. If you dont do anything, he will wonder why you didnt. Then youre in his head. Then hell be thinking..huh, did she forget already, is she just totally over me, what happened here?? Which is kinda cool, right. That said, only you know how you two ended it, so if its more important to you to have that opportunity to possibly reopen those lines of communication, then go for it, heres your chance. BE BREEZY if you do anything. Do not say, Happy Birthday, do you have anything special planned. Just say, Happy Birthday, hope its great...then move on. If he communicates back, Id maintain a sense of being cool, calm and collected. Keep in mind, you have no intention of letting him break your heart again. You dont need that. Lets say he calls after you send the note. Be casual, everything is well, things are good, nice to hear from you, wrap it up. You acting different, less affectionate, less caring, will eat em up. True story.

PS: I had a guy I was a real hot mess over for many years and the first year that I didnt do or say anything to him on his birthday was the year I knew I was actually over him. Ill never forget how it felt to just let it pass on by. Thats something to think about too. But I was in a different place then you are, I really wanted him out of my head. Maybe you do, maybe you dont???

Good Luck!! Your heart will tell you what to do...

If your ex cheated on you, would you still wish him happy birthday?

I dated a guy that ended up cheating on me and we haven't talked since. It's been almost six months and because we have many mutual friends it's always awkward. I want to ease the tension by casually wishing him happy birthday on facebook. Should I do it?

The only reason I would is just to show that I am the bigger person and don't care about what he did to me. But then again, I don't want it to backfire and make him think I'm still interested in him or still hurt.

PLEASE ANSWER!!!! Should I wish my EX a happy birthday.......???

My ex-boyfriend's birthday is today. My heart is telling me NOT to wish him a happy b-day. I don't wanna say anything cuz I feel like we should both just move on & I should just leave the past in the past. Also, HE was the one who dumped me, more than a year ago. He still says hi to me on msn sometimes & 2 months ago, he called me & set a plan to see a movie w/ him. I went to the movie w/ him, and after he drove me home and he said "I wanna see u sometimes". How rude of him! Since that day he hasn't contacted me much. BTW, we never had sex while dating cuz he knew I wanna save myself for marriage. Also, I was checking his myspace & some girls already wished him a happy b-day. I feel like I don't wanna say anything cuz he probably won't even care if I do, AND I'll be lowering myself. Do you think he will care or even NOTICE if I don't say anything? Should I say happy-day to him?
