michelleAKAmandi agony auntYou are more than welcome sweetie.

You could always follow giving him the gift with a comment that you just thought it would be nice to get him a gift, and since you do still have feelings for him, it will be fine if it makes your feelings obvious. Just be aware that it may not change anything from his side so you are not terribly disappointed.

Thanks for the advice he hasn't got a girlfriend but im worried getting him a present would make it obvious that i still have feelings for him. Also i just want it to be something he'd like coz i still think he's a great friend

michelleAKAmandi agony auntHello,

I don't see the harm in giving him a birthday present if you are doing out of kindness.

Are you expecting it to bring you closer? If so, be ready to accept the fact that it may not. If you are still friends with him, I would think it is perfectly fine.

Does he have a new girlfriend? If so, in this case, be aware that it cause him trouble with her. She may not take lightly to the fact that an ex is giving him gifts.

I hope this helps!!

Take care,

Michelle
