should i wish my ex boyfriend a happy birthday or not?

ugh this is driving me nuts. tomorrow is my ex boyfriend's birthday and we broke up 2 years ago. after our break up we hardly talked. but last decemeber he got out of the army for good and now is back in the area. we talked on christmas day and after that we kept in touch by texting. but about 3 fridays ago i called him, but he didn't pick up and he didn't even call me back yet. i know he is at college now, so in my head i think he's just busy. our relationship was actually pretty good. so i'm wondering...is a good idea to wish him or not? or should i move on and forget him?

    yes, just because he's your ex doesn't mean you can't wish him happy birthday

    Texting is private and intimate. Texting is the perfect way to create a private and intimate world between you and the man or woman in your life. Learn here https://tr.im/AKiLB

    For women in particular, texting can end up being a fun “game” where they can do or say anything (even things they would never do in the “real” world). Texting is non confrontational. Odds are your relationship ended on a heated note. I don’t know why you and your ex broke up, but there was probably at least one (if not a few dozen) big fights. Done properly (the way I’m going to teach you), texting is simple and subtle. You can slowly feed your ex tested and proven messages and ideas without the risk of either one of you flying off the handle, falling back into old and destructive patterns, and throwing plates at each other.

    i think you should ask him becaus eit can work to your advantage as well. a few days ago it was my ex's birthday and i wished her happy bday late in the day so it didnt look like i was dying to text it. it is like an opening to talk. by u saying happy birthday u just popped into his head again and he might start the relationship all over again. u get it??? its ur way in........ however it doesnt always work that way so dont bank it all on me

    good luck

    ATL forever

    Yeah, and I also think that you should buy him a present. If you don't want to continue in the relationship, just be his friend and that's it.
