 |
|
| My best girlfriends say no, I should not be giving him a gift. We are on good terms and I do not want to get back together I am happily remarried. We are good terms. I see nothing wrong with it and rather think it is a nice thing to do, since we were married for 20 years and have two grown children. |

| It is rather unusual, but I commend you both for being on good terms after the divorce. If your husband is okay with it, then I'd say that a card is enough of a good will gesture. Any gift, if given at all, should be nominal, and again ONLY if your husband is truly okay with it. |

| Well I wouldn't but then my ex and me are not on good terms.What does your husband feel about it?If your husband doesn't have issue then it's up to you. Just make sure you don't send out mixed messages. |

| I used to do it, but not anymore./ Don't want to waste a cent on him, even though we are on good terms too. |

| No it might start problems with your new husband if he found out.Or it might give your X the wrong idea. |

| If your new spouse does not care...which be my first concern, then go ahead. If you are on good terms, you should be able to be friends..you would buy other friends cards and presents...why not your ex. As long as your new spouse is cool with it, that would be all that matters. |

| No. it is not proper, nor is it appropriate. The fact that you are on good terms with him should be "gift" enough. |

| I don't think it's wrong. You two have a history together, you have two children together and it seems that you two are friends. Nothing wrong w/ giving a friend a gift. |

| I don't feel it's wrong, but you would need to consider how your husband feels about it. Obviously you have a long history with your X and it's good you are on good terms both for your current marriage and especially for the children. If your husband is privy and is totally okay with it, then great. |
