Hi Portia! Is your SO a Scorpio? Mine is too, a lot of our MLCers seem to be Scorpios. Hmmmmm.... Some astrological character flaw leading to crisis?

I vote for the less simple text. I would not mention a GF though, maybe something like "I hope all is well with you" like he does. It would leave the door open if SO cares to walk thru it. Would you feel comfortable actually calling him for his birthday? You are obviously on his mind.
