Its her birthday on thursday and i THINK she would like tme to get her something involving dolphins.
she's told me not to get her anything as she doesnt know what she would like but i believe dolphins are the way to go. Now do iget her something or not and if i do should it be her favourite thing?? If i get her that she may think i'm after her again maybe but if i dont she may think i'm not bothered with her at all. Any suggestions about her pressie too?
She has a dolphin necklace.

Okay, go with the dolphins, but go for good taste or cute, not expensive.

Hey, I send my first wife cards for Christmas & birthdays. We're good friends; we just couldn't stand to live with each other.

IF you wanna be just friends, get her something nice, but NOT personal. Not like "I've been thinking a lot about your preferences".
Dolphins are out of the question. Give any dolphin gift and you're telling her: "I want you back, please".

Well, maybe a National Geographic DVD about dolphins can fit.

Just give her something small, nice ... nothing overdone, but enough to come across as thoughtful.

(I still see a German ex every now and then; last time she came here with her bf and we went to the film festival together. Time before that I visited her and stayed at her place (on the living room floor ;-)). We do exchange kind gifts every now and then, and its something that makes me smile. Why not?)

Let me say that in general, I wouldn't disapprove as heartily -- but Roystonius, we've read SO much from you about how difficult it has been for you to distance yourself from your user of an ex, and giving her thoughtful personal presents seems like the last thing your particular situation calls for.

The little dolphin necklace screams: "I'm clingy!".

Seems like...

Right now, your ex has a dolphin necklace, your actual gf, "has something else lined up for her... along them lines".

I won't dare you to tell your gf about the necklace gift to your ex, because I do wish you well. But, unless she has ice in her veins, she's sooo not going to like the idea of you giving such a present to another woman, a woman you once were in love with.

Off to bed in 10mins though.
