Gift from an ex?

[PierHP]

What would you think if an ex-boyfriend dropped you off a little gift to apologise for the way he was when you were with him?

It's only just been realised that I have depression so she has no idea that all of the things I did to ruin us were caused by it, and it's been almost 2 years since I ended it and around 8 months since we spoke last... she decided to stop talking to me. I'm not expecting her to get in contact with me if I do drop her off a gift, I was a prick and I know it, but there's no denying I still miss her, I think about her almost everyday and I know in my own head that I wish more than anything that I was still with her...

She loved bears and cuddly toys, so I want to give her the bear I never got to give her on our last christmas together, which she knows about... A bottle of sambuca because I know she loves it and we had a personal joke last time we were speaking about her doing shots of sambuca while I stand and watch her dance whilst sipping pepsi... and a note, not saying that I have dperession but just letting her know that there's a reason behind all the things I did, and to let her know I'll always be sorry about it.... Any criticism is welcome, this has been messing with me for so long now, I actually don't want to completely move on until I atleast do something for her.

I think it's a bad idea. It's been 2 years and she explicitly said she doesn't want to talk to you. You say you don't expect her to contact you when you give her a gift, but it's not true. You do expect a response and you will feel disappointed if you don't get one.
