We've broken up, but I would regret not wishing him a happy birthday. Should I send him a card?

A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Well, I have a bit of a situation. I finished my relationship with my ex, about a month and a few weeks ago. To tell you the truth, I didn’t finished things because I stopped loving him but because his actions showed no love for me. I was with him for about a year, I tried everything I could to make it work but I guess it wasn’t enough. I consider him my best friend and someone I care for with all my heart. But his actions showed me he no longer cared about me, and that he wasn’t going to try anymore.

So, I am writing this because his birthday is coming and I wanted to send him a birthday card. I wanted to send that card not to get back with him, or to tell him that I am going to be waiting for him, but to show him that I still care about him and to express to him that he is a very important person in my life. I know this sounds silly, because I should avoid him by any means possible and I been doing that. Is just that is his birthday, and I feel like I would regret not wishing him a happy one.

It would be lovely if you guys could help me out on this one. :)

Honestly I struggle with that and I broke up with my boyfriend about two months ago. Even with all this advice your going to do what you want. I have gotten better with this recently and my advice is to not do it. He hasn't cared within that month and he probably won't care now. It is hard so hard because you do love him but what is more empowering is knowing its his birthday and you can move past that without doing something for him. Think would he send you a card? Probably not if he wanted it to work he would've tried in the relationship and would be trying even harder after you broke up with him. Hope this helps!
