will you recieve/accept gifts from your ex?

why not?? they're still my friends... and hey... what a waste if i don't

hi sunset. i wanted to be the first respondent of this discussion but my net connection is too slow today. i typed the response for 2 times but it disappeared for server problem. now this is third that i am typing. well, as i am an unmarried guy, i have a plan. at the very first night of my married life i shall discuss all about our past life clearly. after that time i don't hope anymore secret from her. i can easily digest everything of her past and i shall permit her to accept the gift from her ex. but she must has to expose this subject that night.lol

I would definitely love to receive gifts! hehhe but of course, there are other people to consider like my husband and my ex's wife. The usual reason for a guy to give something to a girl is if he likes her, it's not just because the guy is being thoughtful. I think if my ex would give us a gift for our family or maybe for my son,who is his godson, then I think that would be okay. But to give something solely for me... that is a totally different thing

First of all, you have to evaluate your relationship with your ex. If you broke up with him in a good way and you have been friend for a long time, means: your husband knows him and they're okay, I think it is fine to accept gifts from your ex. You don't have to hide anything, especially if the gift was given in one special occasion, like your birthday or your wedding anniversary. If your relationship with your ex is 'not okay' means, he still have some feelings of you and you have feeling to him too, I don't think it is wise to receive gifts. Especially if your husband doesn't feel fine with him and doesn't like him. Receiving gifts and hiding the fact that you received gifts from your ex would just ruin your marriage and I believe you wouldn't like that to happen, right?

Although i haven't married, but i think it's okay to receive the gift from an Ex if you guys are friend now. If the gift is not anything to do with LOVE, i think it's okay to tell your love that you receive a gift from your ex. But if you ex trying to make up with you, better tell him no and reject the gift, and don't tell your hubby, to avoid flights,

Hello Acie, The situation should be considered.If my ex and my husband has nothing ill feelings towards each other,yes,i will accept the gift. But,even if my ex and husband were in good terms,i still have to consider my ex's wife.What if his ex had bad feelings towards me? It could just be a simple gift that has no meaning for me and my ex,but just a simple gift for old times sake.But that simple gift can cause a big trouble if situation get worst. So,there are things to be considered and taken care of. But,if you ask me personally,yes i will accept it,becoz i know that it is given with pure sincerity and (it's still a gift and since he is my ex,he knows my favorite and weaknesses weiiiii hehehee)

Thankfully, this is something I don't have to worry about. My ex could never remember my birthday when we were married! LOL Seriously though, if he were to try to give me a gift of any kind, I would refuse it and tell him that he should worry about the kids. My current husband would, without a doubt, flip his lid if he even thought that my ex was thinking about giving me a gift for any reason.

As another poster has said, I really don't think this would be a problem for me. I'm not married and my ex wouldn't remember my birthday anyway. I usually don't stay friends when I break up with someone. So, if I got a gift from an ex, even as a single girl, I would refuse it and send it back. Too little too late for me. Also, if I do not like the person, the gift is tainted to me.
