If an ex, but once very close friend were pregnant...

would you buy them something off thier registry and send it to them?


I just found out my ex best friend (whom I haven't spoken to in almost 3 years) is due in October. Even though we didn't end our friendship on such good terms, I thought maybe sending a gift might show that there are no hard feelings and that I still care.

Are you looking to be back in contact with her? No matter what, that would be a very nice and friendly gesture.

Thats nice of you. For me, it would depend on just how badly the friendship ended.

If you wanted to open the door to renew the friendship I think it would be a nice gesture.

I'm in the exact same situation although it has been less than 3 years and I just ordered something off of her registry to be delivered to her.

I agree. If you don't want to be friends with her again, I think you should let her be.

If you do opt for the gift I think you should send it with a letter. Sending a gift leaves her obligated to contact you back & I'm not sure I'd want the stress of that during pregnancy.

It depends on why the friendship ended but I think that's a sweet gesture.

If you were looking to become friends again on some level it would be a be a very nice gesture & an easy way to make the first step BUT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO START A FRIENDSHIP I WOULDN'T SEND ANYTHING BECAUSE SHE MAY GET THE WRONG IDEA.

whoops sorry I hit the caps lock and too lazy to retype!

Re: If an ex, but once very close friend were pregnant...

send it if you want to rekindle the friendship


if you want to keep her at a distance, then you should really remain that way and not send a gift

It depends on what happened to end the friendship.. It's a nice gesture and if you want to become friends with her again then send it.. if not, leave her be. JMO

You can also just send a card. I did that with someone when their dad passed away. I wasn't interested in renewing the friendship, I just wanted to express my sorrow and show her I still care.
