Did you save things from prior relationships?

I burned all the gifts my Exes have given me, don't see the point in keeping stuff from past relationships.

An ex-girlfriend bought me this really nice raincoat from Lululemon (it's the black one if you lick on the link):

Dam, that's the first time I looked this up. She paid $248 for this!?!?!?!?!

Anyway, we broke up in May of 2020 (i.e. non-COVID casualty of the pandemic). While we completely ended it (more like we both completely let it die), she has great taste in clothes. And, she is good person. We just weren't a good long-term match.

Weird seeing this topic, lol.

So from the Will Smith thread:
why is resetera making a big deal about this?

especially the mods?
I went over there to see what's up, and wow the same topic exists over there!

I still have most furnitures and stuff. They work, so I just don't see any reason throwing away a perfectly good chair/sofa/dining table set and media cabinet etc.
Dishes and silverwares etc - I also have them. They are just things. What's important is what's on that plate.

Other than that, pics, etc are in a box somewhere... tbh, I'm not even sure which box.
Only reason I'm saving them is for my child.
If she's not interested in the future - straight to the garbage they'll go when I downsize.

Yes. I still have pictures and some photo albums from my 2 year relationship in college and we still keep in touch from time to time. She was and still is beautiful and was a very good person. 5' ft 9 with Cindy Crawford's exact measurements. Shame about that whole Christianity thing being a deal breaker.

I have a few frat/sorority date party pics from events attended with a couple of girls I talked to as well.

I have most of the gifts still from my 5 yr relationship-> marriage as well. I still have some sex videos and photos but have been thinking about deleting them recently. That relationship ended August 2020 and while I still dream about her and us a lot... Emotionally, I've mostly moved on.

Fuck no, and I don't let them keep my shit either lol.

One of my exes tried to keep my Resident Evil 4 copy for the Wii when we called it quits, I caught that shit in the back of her Subaru the day she was about to take off and got it out. She asked if she could keep it as we played it a lot together, my answer?

"Just started a new professional play through recently. See ya."

Look, relationships are tough, and sometimes they fail.....but Mr. Kennedy never did me wrong. Priorities.

I have a V-day card one gave to me. as well as a couple gifts. The gifts are possessions I like to own and the card is a little bit of sentimental value. It doesn't make me sad, it's just a good memory. Like a yearbook or something.

No, I don’t keep anything. I actually make a point of getting rid of it all, nude pics the lot. Can be tough but it’s the best option to help with moving on.

I dunno, it’s a bit sad to me to still have naked pictures of a girl you’re no longer sleeping with.

What, do you regularly look at them wistfully or something?
 
Only bitterness and rage. :p (No, I don't. Well, I have pictures that includes our child - talking about a former marriage - and there may be some odds and ends that got stuck in boxes, but I let it go, generally speaking.)
 
Mostly shit we filmed and digitial photos from a quite a few. Other than that a really nice wedding photo from one's Brother's wedding and some other item I forgot to give back to some other one

I know it's not healthy to bat over past lovers but meh
