yayy, for those of us who didn't even get a merry christmas from the ex!

lol i know it probably sucks to get merry christmas msgs from your exes b/c well they still don't necessarily want anything to do with you romantically anymore. BUT it also sucks just not getting anything from your ex. it's like you realize just how much they don't give a sh*t about you anymore. they're enjoying the holidays without you in their lives. f*ck them all!

Well I had a feeling my ex's ego is too high to ever be nice. I'm glad though she didn't text, because it probably would've hurt more. And it woulda been nice if she did too in some ways too.

 

But at the end of the day the better of the two is NOT getting a text.

Couldn't care less if they text or if they don't. Christmas is about family and fun, not wondering about stuff like that. My best friends didn't text me either. It doesn't mean anything either way.

today my ex tried to add me on facebook and send me texts talking about the gifts she got, and how one or two were for me

 

 

 

didnt respond

I live with my ex 2.5 yrs post break... We barely made eye contact in the house let alone any warm wishes for the holidays.

I am intrigued by this. Care to go into more detail? How do you do it? My ex is living in one of my rentals rent free and I'm currently waiting until February as we discussed for her to move out. Don't want to hijack this thread but I don't understand how you could live with an ex and after such a long period after calling it quits.

I got a Merry Christmas text. Getting bread crumbs sucks but at least she was thinking of me. It wouldn't be fair if I was the only thinking about her all the time. It doesn't give me any false hope but I least it tells me I meant something to her. I'm sure after my text she was kissing her new BF.

I wish I had gotten a text, but we exchanged merry Christmas wishes during his break-up. Still, i hoped that he'd contact me on the day of, and wish me a happy Christmas again, but no such luck Out of sight of mind I guess, huh? :(

Grrrr I still need to return those gifts to the store. It is nasty outside don't feel like leaving home. I have a gift card too. I wonder if I can return gift cards or not

Just because you didn't get a text doesn't mean they don't care or aren't thinking about you. You are thinking of them and didn't text right? There is plenty of reasons why. Maybe they care but they know they never want you back and don't want to open any doors or give you any hope so they figure it would be a bad idea. Maybe they think you would just ignore them. So many reasons.

 

Why is everyone so stuck on what their ex thinks though? Who cares, the only thing that matters is what you think. Your ex isn't part of your life anymore.

I didn't send my ex a merry Christmas because to be honest, I don't care. Not in a mean way, he's just out of my thoughts. Does that make me a bad person? No. We weren't married, he's not my family, not a friend either.

 

I agree with you, who cares what they think of us? I have been dumped by guys I liked a lot, didn't expect a merry christmas, happy birthday, or anything of that nature.

It's common courtesy to say Merry Christmas to someone you've spent X number of years with. If the person that left you won't take 30 seconds away from their day to give you common courtesy then I say good riddance.

the most realistic reason however is that life is just happier without us in their lives, at least romantically. i know that should be obvious, hence they are exes now. but at times like christmas, a time for loved ones, and not hearing from them just solidifies that above fact that they don't want you back in their life, that's all. just hard to let go when last christmas/new years she stayed with me and was posting new years pics of us on her facebook, loving life, and me. now we're strangers.

 

just venting, it'll pass.

Christmas is for family.. not for exs to dwell over... come on people, give your hurt ego a break.

Didn't get a Merry Christmas text. I got bread crumbs texts from my ex for Christmas. How lucky am I?

 

I hope everyone had a good Chrstmas. She made me think about her when I didn't even want to. That witch!
