While it is very thoughtful of you to want to do so, you are probably opening yourself up to being hurt over the situation all over again.

Yes...there are several levels of relationship and they are always changing throughout life.
sed on trust, mutual commitment, common interests, and experience
1. Stranger (never met them and no idea of their character or beliefs)
2. Acquaintance (someone who you see but neither of you talk)
3. Surface friend (you say hi but neither care about each other)
4. Friend (someone you share beliefs and do activities with and care for)
5. Close Friend (you consider important and you show care for weekly)
6. Best Friend (daily show care for, do things for them selflessly)
7. Lover/Spouse/Partner (committed financially, emotionally, physically)
These are all the stages that can be worked up towards and they are ba
If a person violates your trust and becomes an enemy...you would probably never allow them to be more than an acquaintance ever again.
As the saying goes..."hurt me once, shame on you...hurt me twice, shame on me."

If you honestly hope she has a happy birthday you should do it. If she 'snaps back' at you that is her loss and her being petty. If she truly values the friendship you once had she will take it as a sincere wish for her contentment.

I think you should just move on. They have and it is time that you do as well.

what is she going to say?
I dont except-
I used to have a very good friend that I have known since I was 4, we got into a big disagreement and stop speaking for about 4 years(yes i know). I tried to fix it eventually but things will never be the same.
what did you do that caused her to end the friendship?
I have no idea if this is fixable but obv its someone you care about.
if this is not fixable I recommend you appoligise to her and get on with your life because I think you realy feal guilty for something.

Why would you want to? do you truly want her to have a Happy Birthday? I'd say leave it be unless you see this as maybe a way of sorting through things with her? in that case say it but don't hold too much store by it

It all depends on what you are expecting her reaction to be.

Just remember she may not respond well and you may get your feelings hurt in the process
