    tomorrow is john's birthday . he will be turning 30, big one. yippy.
    here's my dilemma. i want to get him a present. i was gonna get him a journal and Matrix Revolutions. now to me this would be just fine. however, in the course of all this seperation, he misunderstands acts of kindness sometimes. instead of accepting them, he gets pissed at me or else he gets hope.

    on saturday we had a great heart to heart and are on a good page right now.

    should i get him a gift or not?
    i dont wanna mess w/ his mind. i love him, just cant be with him, but still want the best for him and to be friends. is it too soon to give him a gift?

    Yeah, like olhippie said, just a card. Maybe a gift certificate or something to that effect. :)

    I agree. Why be overgiving with someone if it's going to possibly mess with their emotions, or how they perceive you? It's not really healthy.

    Hey Marie,
    If you think that buying your ex a gift for his birthday might mess with his head, then defiently would not. I would have Arianna make him a card, paint a rock or some type of craft for her to make for him. I would not buy him anything because it sounds like that he might think that you "want him back". Unless you do want him back...............

    I read the whole thing this time because I was gonna say one of the portfolio's of yourself in sexy nightware until I saw that it was a guy that you are trying to brush off so here is the deal. Just get him a card (Not romantic but humorous )and get him a gag gift or a box of nuts. (I don't know why but guys love nuts). Express your friendship and wish him well. ;)

    ...does anyone who posted on November 10, 2004 realize that this thread was started almost six (6) [VI] {1,2,3,4,5,6!!!} months ago???

    Just thought I'd indulge my anal retentive side and point this out.




    So, marie, what did you end up getting the boy? :cool:
