My ex sent me a happy b-day text. I started to reply with an indifferent "thanks" and then all the anxiety, bitterness, and hurt came flooding back. I thought "too much pain" and deleted it. It has been almost 6 years. He is remarried and I am happily engaged. Should I reply, even with something as small as "thanks"?

In a word - No. He's not your friend.
I'm sorry you are hurting/triggering from that.
But: happy birthday to you!!

I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!
