marmaliade Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Hey toy is my b-day. Ex wrote me a message "happy birthday, bla bla bla". What's up with him writing the sms? Why do they do it? We broke up on a bad terms, so actually I didn't expect it. It got me a little backwards. But thirst mind that popped into my head was ignore it, then maybe write why the **** is he bothering me, then that i am so happy and greatfull that i didnt end up with him and life's so much better, but in the end i worte a short thank you (not worth being impolite, i guess)
BeagleGal Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 (edited) Don't worry too much about it. My ex did the same to me as well. After dumping me for someone else (unbeknownst to me at the time), kicked me out of the house with no place to go and then finding out a couple of weeks earlier that he had been cheating on me and did leave me for OW, he had the nerve to text me: "Happy Birthday T!!!!! Hope you have a great day!!!!" He had texted me that 731am the morning of, he was the first one to wish me a happy birthday, Like, if nothing had happened. I was stunned as well as I didnt expect it just like you. I didnt bother to reply as I didnt owe him any sort of "thank you" or anything after what he did to me. Why they do it? Who the hell knows? Maybe he felt guilty because before we broke up, we had plans to go away for a weekend for my birthday to the Bahamas. Maybe he just wanted to "reach out". Who knows, who cares. He's an assh*le.

PegNosePete Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 I'm wondering if I'll get the same next monday... but if I do, it'll get no reply. Been NC for 2 weeks now. Happy birthday btw
Leandro Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 My ex left me two weeks before my birthday. I was hoping she would say something that day. She never did . That told me how much she cared about me.

My ex text me on my birthday as well. My birthday was in beginning of June and we had broken up the month before. It said something like: "I know this probably doesn't matter to you right now, but I wanted to wish you a happy birthday and hope you find something fun to do today." Gee, thanks a**hole. And you're right, it doesn't matter to me that you are wishing me a happy birthday. I didn't respond. F*ck him. He didn't deserve a response.
BeagleGal Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Exactly. The nerve of them to do that after the sh*t they brought onto us. Whatever. Chris' bday is coming up in about 2 weeks and my sorry as* was actually contemplating texting him, then I got real (well someone helped me get real) and said if I text him, the message I am sending to him is that I can't stop thinking about him, and despite his crappy treatment of me the last few months, its more important for me to give in and send him a happy birthday text. So forget it. He ain't hearing from me on his birthday or any other day. My ex text me on my birthday as well. My birthday was in beginning of June and we had broken up the month before.

So forget it. He ain't hearing from me on his birthday or any other day. Good for you. I won't be sending any texts either. No christmas texts, no birthday texts, no nothing. It will be like I never existed and he never meant anything to me. If he sends me anything, I won't respond. I don't think he will though because my last correspondence with him was an email telling him never to contact me again in any way, shape or form and that he was dead to me. If that ain't a hint that I want nothing to do with him, I don't know what is.
mickleb Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 in the end i worte a short thank you (not worth being impolite, i guess) IMO, a bad break up is every reason to be "impolite" on your birthday, or any other day but no matter! It sounds as if you have given yourself a wonderful gift: the determination to have great life without some complete jerk-off in it. Happy Birthday, marm. x
