Neko Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Last week, my ex randomly texted me saying he found something of mine. A keychain with a beautiful quote.. It was something I had purchased for myself during a very low point in my life. I had it wrapped up and decided to only open it when I needed a reminder of what was important in life. A couple of years ago, my ex was going through a rough time in his life and so I gave it to him. Felt he might needed it more than me. He seemed to love it and wore it proudly on his keychain until it started getting damaged so he took it off to preserve it. It's something I gave him....and he's saying it's "mine." Suffice to say, he managed to strike a chord cause I broke down for the first time in months. 24 hours later, I calmly replied that he could leave it at a mutual friend. He then asks if he could have his game console back. While we were together, he had given it to me since he had never used it. I was irritated to say the least but decided not to make a war out of it so I gave it back as well...(I will be honest and say I had a moment of pure bitchiness and thought to demand "my" mini-fridge back. I decided not to sink to that level) Has this happened to anyone before? I'm upset by this latest development...I don't even know what to think. Up to this point, the breakup, while abrupt and devastating, had been handled for the most part in a mature manner. With this, I can't help but wonder if I should pack up and return everything that wasn't an official birthday/holiday/anniversary gift.

Since you are handling it in a mature way, i would say you just continue to do so. No need to pack every thing you mention and return it to him. He asked his game console, you gave it back. End of story. You keep moving on, until he is out of your system. I can understand how you feel, but believe me, you are doing the right thing. My 2 cents.. KC
