Valentine's is coming up. Can you send them something without ANY expectation of getting anything in return? Yes I can.
If you can and only if you can, then send some balloons or candy or flowers-whatever THEY like. No, not your ex w, just your d's. I plan on sending something similar to what you've suggested to the girls...and nobody else.
A card that says "hope you have a great Valentine's day, Love dad"
says enough. That's all I'll say.
but if their inability to respond or say thanks, means you'll be down in the dumps even more
then don't do it. I'm not gonna have a problem doing it...period. I'll have no expectations for anything back from either of them. I won't be affected by the lack of a response from them.
Give b/c you feel like giving... That's the ONLY reason I plan on doing it.
don't give if you HAVE to get a return and besides, that's more like trading than giving anyhow.
ok? OK.
