    Set clear boundaries. Say something like "We don't have that kind of relationship anymore. I'm no longer your confidant or support system."

    It's okay to have friendly interactions, such as wishing each other a happy birthday, but be sure to draw the line and establish boundaries.

    Come right out and say where you need your boundaries so they know where the relationship stands.

    It's not weird to send your ex a gift, but make sure you don't send them the wrong message. Only send a gift if you know for sure they won't think you want to get back together.
