Dear Queenie,
My ex-girlfriend and I broke up a couple of years ago, but we stayed friends and see each other at parties and whatever. Her birthday was a few weeks ago and I got her a present and asked her to get together for me to give it to her, but I haven’t heard from her since.
Queenie, what should I do with it?—Ex-boyfriend
Dear EX-boyfriend,
Please note the emphasis I put on the “ex.”
Clearly your ex-girlfriend is not at all interested in “getting together” with you or receiving a gift from you. If the gift is something you can use yourself, do so. If not, donate it to a charity.
