Valentines cards for the ex

Does anyone do this? Get one from their ex? I’ve just heard of people doing this today. I suppose it never occurred of me to think this was a “thing” so I didn’t realise it was something people do, it’s “from the kids” apparently. Can’t say it’s something that’s ever crossed my mind. Do other people do this? (I’m not considering doing it)

No, that would be weird.

No I don't do this and more importantly I really wouldn't want one either from him!

Confused Even if I had a good, civil relationship with my DD's dad (I don't), I would find it inappropriate and gross. But each to their own and all that...

My ex never even got me anything when we were together so would have been odd now that we aren’t, mind you he is absent anyway, however he did buy me something for Xmas one year when we split up 😂

Was it from him or dressed up as “from the kids” ?

It was 'anonymous' but it was obviously from him.

I don't know what he's hoping to gain from it. He's never stopped loving me but was utterly crap at showing it the way I needed and wanted. Left me doing virtually everything myself while he sat on his arse and now can't understand why I left him. The card went in the bin.
