This is the first year in 5 years that me and my ex will not be together for the holidays. We've been apart now for 3 months,and I miss him but there is no chance of reconciliation. Should I send a holiday card ?

No. Unless you are close and still friends. I would not see a point to send a christmas card unless you all have kids and they want to send one.

If you really want to send a card, try to make it a generic one. Not one you would have given him during your relationship. Just something that says "Happy Holidays". Good luck making a decision.

Wait a year, then if you still want to then start sending cards as long as he's not a jerk. Give yourselves time to let go first. When you do send a card, make it as generic as possible, with no "love"s or anything sappy in it.

No-there is no real reason to. If its over then you just have to move on and make new memories. There is no reason to live in the past and you sending a card will make it uncomfortable if he is dating someone else.

On an 8.5 X 11 sheet of notebook paper write,
Things are tough,
Times are hard,
Here's your Fu@kin'
Christmas card.

Sure! Why not? As long as he will understand that this isn't some sort of attempt to get him back into your life, & that he knows that you aren't interested in a reconcilliation. Why not be nice & wish him well for the comming year?

no, not if there is no chance you will get back together with him. sending him a card could give him the wrong idea. leave him alone.

If you are friends, yes. If you haven't spoken since the break up, no. Sometimes the best way to get over someone is to just let them be. I know you want to talk to him so much, but you'll heal faster if you don't. It's your life though. Do what feels right.

Sure, if you can look past the pain and conflict that separated the both of you. Just make sure the card is neutral and polite.
