kunalv Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Hello, I am meeting my ex after 3 long years. When we broke up, she moved out of the city for a job. Now, she has returned back. We have been in touch via phone for the last month or so. But the breakup was really bitter and we had no contact what-so-ever for the next 3 years. But now we seem to be getting along really well. So, I was wondering what kind of gift would be suitable for the occasion. I'm looking at something really subtle, something that says "I am glad you are back in my life. Let's forget the bitterness and move ahead". I know that's maybe a lot to ask from a simple gift, but if there's anything that comes close to what I wanna portray, I'll be glad to know. Thanks
joe86 Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 I wouldn't bother with a gift at this stage. I might pick up the tab wherever you go, but no gifts yet. And no talking about what happened after all that time because so much will have changed. 2
amy10 Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Maybe it's a little too early to be giving gifts. But you could just give her a gift if you are having coffee together or something. So it will be casual. Maybe you could buy a nice silk scarf, a book, or hair accessory? It depends on what sort of person she is and what she likes. I know these gifts may sound a bit different but jewellery would be a bit too much for the position you are in i think.
mammasita Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 I agree, no gift. Don't rush. Just pick up the tab etc., that should be more than enough.
keepontruckin Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 If she cares for you, the gift should be nothing more than you... Simple as that.
Emilia Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 3 years is a long time, don't expect too much. No gift, no expectations if possible.
r321148 Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Totally agree. No gift necessary. It's been 3 years and a lot will have changed. Just buy her a coffee and see how it goes from there.
emi Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 how do you feel? Wanna try again or just friend?
PR08 Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 And yet one more for the 'no gift' club. Your key here is to keep it breezy and casual. Turning up with puppy dog eyes and a gift in hand is going to kill any chance.
