What to send a man who is going through a break up?

Posting here for the traffic!

I want to put something in the post for a man who is going through a marriage break up. What would be nice to send to a man?

What does he like normally?
who are you to him?

Is it a show of support gift, or a how your available gift for when he’s ready?

What's your connection to him? For me, what I'd send would depend on that

I mean do you want to be the next one along? Is it your brother? Are you the ex? What makes you think he's taking it so badly he needs a care package? Soxonth relationship or 40 year marriage?

Your number and a pair of your knicke

When I first separated from my ex, someone in my family sent me a hamper of teas and coffees. A friend gave me a picture to hang in my new room to help it feel like my own space. Some other friends sent me a blanket. Most of my friends gave me an open invitation to stay any time, so I could get away from it all for a bit. Someone else kept inviting me to days out to get me out of the house. I can't immediately see why any of those things wouldn't also be gratefully received by a man.

If you know this person well enough to send them something because they're in the process of a separation, then you probably also know them well enough to know what little things they might appreciate to make life feel a bit easier/give them a bit of a lift.

LOL I have just re read my post and didn't realise how I made it sound haha

He is my uncle !!! It's a gift to show support from myself and my other half .

Was gonna send flowers but didn't know if a man would appreciate that !

@ColonelMustardEatingCustard - these are all great suggestions! Thank you!

He's so hard to buy for at the best of times and I was just searching the internet for inspiration so thought I would put a post on here for any brain waves that I hadn't thought of!

It's nice to receive things in the post so just wanted to be able to send something along with being there in person for him

Lots of men like receiving flowers - especially as it’s such a novelty.

A sweet hamper would be lovely through the post too. Or even a card letting him know you’re thinking of him.

I become a bit of a hermit after a break up and have no social energy, but if someone turned up with a Chinese takeaway to listen to me whinge for a bit and watch a film it would cheer me up enormously. If he’s had to move it might also help in feel more at home in his new place.

Rather than flowers an unkillable houseplant like a snake plant can be a nice gesture as well as making a new place look more homely.
Afternoon tea or treat boxes can be nice. Or seeing as his family he might just be missing the routine of having someone to do things with at the weekend- how about an invite to lunch or something

I would send him a nice hamper.

I was once sent a huge gift box of different chocolate bars via amazon from my brother.

Why does anyone need something! Give him your time and consideration. Call him spend tiMe. Sadness doesn’t need gifts.

@Newdaynewstarts - because receiving something in the post as a surprise is such a nice thing! I never said I wasn't giving him our time and consideration alongside this . It's just something nice to be able to do

Well what would be a treat for him? Does he like chocolate? Posh sweets? A hamper of his fav foods? A nice indoor plant?
Maybe not alcohol though.

More like a just thinking of you gift rather than a break up gift.

A big bag of pic n mix.
