Thoughts please...present from ex!
Jump to: Newest in thread
The ex dumped me out of the blue in July after a long relationship. Christmas is upon us and while we've remained on good terms I'm struggling to make sense of the present he has bought me for Christmas.
Would you buy your an expensive gift for Christmas? If so why? What would motivate you ? |

"Good terms or not, if dumped out the blue, I wouldnt be breaking the bank .. a card would be suffice... a commiserations on his/her loss .. or is that just me being bitter and twisted "
Love the sentiment...sent a card that has 'From the best thing you had Happy Christmas' on the front..as a joke! |

I'd never buy an ex that I'm just on good terms with a gift that is expensive. In fact I'd not buy any friend a gift that is much more than £50, with the exception of me wanting to enforce our friendship.
I may spend a little more if I wanted to get back with them.
If they did that for me but I'm not interested in getting back together, I would question them why, and I'd tell them there is no way I could accept a gift at that cost. |

If I was good mates with, cared about them and valued them the yes, the same as I would any other friend of I had the finances to do so.... however...
If they had a new relationship then no, I feel it would be wrong of me to so especially if it was an expensive gift that could "upstage" the new partner so to speak

Several years ago an ex dumped me over summer. The following Christmas he bought me a links of London charm for a bracelet I owned. The charm was nearly £300...
He wanted to get back with me. I was having none of it. |

I don’t even buy my friends presents never mind an ex. It’s nice to see so many of you are friends with your ex’s. But to me an ex is an ex for a reason. If I received a present I would be very suspicious. |

I'm very good friends with some of my ex's and they get presents to the same value as other friends (which is pretty much stocking filler / secret santa / token / bottle of tipple - so £10-£20) no ulterior motive just that their friendship is as important to me as other friends. Moreso sometimes. They have seen really sides to me sometimes. |
