what is the decorum for ex's parents on christmas?

[ChellyV]

I would like to send a christmas card to my ex's parents. Is this a proper thing to do?

 

Although not very close to them, we had a really nice and cordial relationship while I was with him. One of the pains of breaking up with him was losing them too. I am completely over that ex now. We exchange small talk once in a while but that is it. As for the words on the card, I do not plan to put anything, but just sending it so they know I am remembering them and I appreciate them.

Nope. I wouldn't do it.

 

A Christmas card may be painful for them to receive if they were hurt by the breakup = or could make your ex wonder what your aim is. It will also create a situation for you where you are hopeful you will get a response.

 

Move forward and don't create additional contact.

I would send them some coal instead...no its not a good idea, do you want to torture yourself more if they dont respond? Not good, just do the right thing and move on, that means eliminating everybody connected to your ex.

I wouldn't do it.. there just isn't any need for it.

I wouldn't do it either. I would have said yes if there were children involved but if you weren't super close to them, then no.

Now is the time to cut the cord, and I'm sure they'll certainly understand.
