t0ri Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Today's my birthday. Many people have wished me a happy birthday, but I can't help but wish/wonder if my ex will do the same. He text me a few weeks ago after not speaking to me since the final breakup four months ago, but I'm not counting on him acknowledging my birthday. It's weird how I'm surrounded by my family and friends that love me unconditionally, yet I still feel alone. I still can't believe he broke up with me and how it all played out. A lot can change in a year. Anyway, just ranting I guess.
icyness Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 *big hugs* I wish you a very Happy Birthday. xo

JenniferxO Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Dont let that get to you. Enjoy the company of your family and friends, those are the people who matter, he doesn't. Happy birthday!!!!
Thaddeus Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Sorry, t0ri, I must have missed this earlier. Happy Birthday!
Author t0ri Posted August 24, 2009 Author Posted August 24, 2009 he broke up with you. the question is would YOU wish him a happy bday when his came round? His birthday passed and I didn't wish him crap! I celebrated all weekend and actually really enjoyed myself! Just have been curious if he'd say anything today...but nope. I'm over it Thanks for the birthday wishes!
Author t0ri Posted August 24, 2009 Author Posted August 24, 2009 He text me a bit ago and wished me a happy belated birthday. Do I bother to say "thanks" or just ignore it? I think ignore.
LakesideDream Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 t0ri, It gets better. Just 4 months ago I sent my ex a Birthday Card and a token gift (snail mail) She was suprised by the gift, happily so. It was fun for me too. This is after 8 years of divorce. She was the "cheater", and the cause of the divorce. I have found over the eons (lol) that the greatest gifts are the ones you give. I doesen't hurt to show off how much you've grown, even when you are an ancient geezer like me. In a few years you might want to sent a message of your own. As for your question about answering his belated birthday wish. If it will cause you pain, or discomfort don't do it. When emotions are still raw, causing yourself pain for little or no benefit makes no sense. It's all a "process" you will learn how to deal with things as time goes on. Try not to be afraid of extending yourself. When you take a chance and it turns out well, I promise you'll feel good about yourself.

I was nice enough to wish my ex a happy birthday and I figured he might do the same, but nope! Nadda! and you're right it is THEIR LOSS!
Author t0ri Posted August 25, 2009 Author Posted August 25, 2009 (for the record t0ri, i say ignore xx ) That's what I decided to do I think it's just better that I say nothing. Why would he bother texting me that, it being a day late?! Thanks for the bday wishes!
