If you could buy a Christmas present for your ex..... 

As I walk through the stores and see all the Christmas decorations, I find my self realizing that I am not buying my stbx a present this year.  Our first Christmas apart.  Oh, I see things and think...he would like that and then I remember. 

 

So, just for fun, if you could get your stbx ANY present, what would you get them?  I mean anything....

 

I would give them this dice game called 'Cheaters' ....'nough said!

Hmmm....I have to think about this one and the only thing I can come up with is....I wouldn't buy him anything becuz I wouldn't want to spend MY money on dumbass HIM, he always said when we were married that it was HIS money--that's why I say that.  The only gift I can think to give him and it doesn't require any spending of money, is actually something my dad did when he was a teenager.  Yeah it's a little immature but what the hell!!  I would get some dog crap out of the neighbor's yard, put it in a brown paper bag, sit it on his doorstep (or I should say his and the bitch's doorstep) light it on fire and ring the doorbell and watch him as he stomps the fire out!!! :)  Becuz like I've said before - he is a worthless piece of shit!! :)

I would buy him a heart so I could rip it out and break it just like he broke mine.

Wow, Cornfused......That is really wonderful!  I'm not sure I could be that forgiving and understanding, even for the children.  It's a wonderful example!

Very funny posts, all of them. 

At my most very painful moment, I would have given my ex a broken heart.  Just like the one he gave me.

But on a healing note:

In the end because we still have a daughter, I didn't want to be the bitter ex-wife.  I wanted my daughter to have her father in her life.  So... I always bought a present for him from my daughter until she was old enough to spend her own money. 

Since I wanted him to be in her life and he lived out of state (military) I always invited him to stay with us (my second husband and me).  Only can be done by an understanding second husband.  After a while he moved to the area.  We would exchange dog sitting when each would be out of town. 

We established a friendship that began with the need to provide our daughter with a "loving" home life.  Too many of her friends never had a good relationship with one parent or the other because a parent would withhold visitation from the child.

Now 17 years later - we remain friends, exchange xmas gifts, will go to dinner to celebrate our daughter's birthday.  We, as in, me, my husband, my ex-husband, his gf.  In my daughter's words "her whole disfunctional family".

Becksmom - I would do the same thing.  He thinks that having a lot of people around him is what he needs to be sane and happy.  But that will only be his regret in time.  While all this craziness is going on at his house with his new girlfriend and her son and his mother and her granddaughter...he barely has time for our kids or himself for that matter...and let's not forget how expensive it will be to feed all those people and also house them.  Wow, don't want to see his utility bill in about 5 months!!!

I would definitely give him the future now. Make him live 2013 now.

Because he thinks he has everything he needs to make him happy (he ran off with his high school girlfriend, who just got divorced for him, has 2 young children and is pregnant with his child). So now he has everything he wants...except money. I know that 5 years from now he's going to be even more miserable than he currently is. Sometimes the worst thing is getting everything you want! Sometimes what you want is the last thing you need!

Nice bear, but I think Herelgo takes the cake.

BTW, honestly I would have said a pound of C4 or a grenade with the pin pulled, but where would that get me but in jail.

I would give her two awesome kids, a great house, a good job, and a spouse who would lie, steal, and cheat on her.  But I'd do it with nothing but love in my heart.  ; - )

Well, everyone here is being half way nice so I won't say what I really would do. First ...I don't have the money to waste on him so I would hunt around the back yards of people who have dogs and collect the waste the dogs got rid of and then I would place the items under his pickup seat. LOL...It would simply give him all that he has given me.

i did/do buy my ex xmas presents....from the kids.  and since they are too young to do it, i pick them out and they hand it to him.  last fathers day 'we' bought him one of those novelty books called 'how to be a good dad'.  it was ironic.   cuz he's a horrible dad.  naturally it went way over his head and he actually thanked me for it.  i should have written a little note in the front cover saying something like 'you could start by giving your children child support'. but i didn't.
