what's the best way to tell an ex-boyfriend (who you never see) happy birthday on a birthday card without overdoing it?

"Happy birthday. Hope you're well. Take care. From ....."

...then again...it comes down to WHY you are sending the card in the first place.

im sending the birthday card because i care enough to let him know that i remembered. i dont hate the guy, i think its nice to know that someone remembered.(me)

would u be suprised if u got an unexpected happy birthday card from an ex-boyfriend?

its the thought that counts.

I wouldn't mind getting a card from one of my ex bfs...but I'm still friends with them and we keep in touch every now and then.

If I was him I'd be wondering what your motives were for sending the card. Trying to score some brownie points?

On the other hand, maybe you're just trying to be nice?

Why not just call him on his birthday and say, "happy birthday! hope you're having a great day, talk to you later."
