Ex girlfriend stuff

    So this week I'm taking the plunge and moving in with my girlfriend.

    The problem is that I have shoeboxes of stuff from previous girlfriends, all the mementos, letters, cinema tickets etc. and I don't know what to do with it.

    In fairness, I want to keep it, cause some of the memories in those boxes are really good, but on the other hand I'm sure my gf would go mental if she found this hoard in our new place.

    Any thoughts on what I should do? What do yous do with the stuff left over from girlfriends past?

    I put all my ex girlfriend's stuff in the recycling bin.

    Would it be an option to stick it in your parents attic or something?

    Light the fire with it?

    Who keeps cinema tickets anyway?

    Just erect a shrine in your new place to your ex's with all this stuff as the centrepiece.
    Your current gf will love your sentimental side.
    And bitches love shrines.

    Everything you need to retain is already in the **** bank. The rest can go in the bin.

    Have one final tug all over the stuff and burn it.

    Be a man and dump the stuff.

    Yeah OP be a man and dump all your family photos too and any other mementos you might have. Nostalgia is for pussies man.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 815 ✭✭✭animaal


    If those old memories are so good, you won't need the associated clutter to remind you of them.

    It sounds like you have trouble moving on.

    Couldn't you just keep a couple of things that are really important to you and dump the rest? And probably best not to turn those few things into a shrine - it mightn't go down well with the current GF.

    Are you that insecure in your new relationship that you can't discuss it with her?

    You should bury them with the body.

    Smug much?

    I suppose Playstations don't have that many relationship issues, to be fair.
