Polls: Break Up & Divorce

Me and my ex boyfriend been together for 3 years
I stayed at his place every night
So he gave me spare keys to his place

Last week we argued and I ended our relationship
He went to work
I told him I will pack my things and leave
And he goes "do whatever you want"

I was really angry so I did a petty thing...
I took his airconditioner remote
And tv remote

But he never texted and asked for them back..
Not even the spare keys
haven't heard from him since last week

Why?

We have broken up and made up multiple times tho...

Unless they're the father/mother of your children, there is no other reason to communicate with them. There is nothing to talk about.

If a boyfriend dumps me and wants to keep me as a friend, I'll interpret that as getting demoted to the lowest position on a job; then dealing with the humiliation and insult to your own ego/self-esteem. The guy would likely feel the same way if I did that too. So I think blocked permanently if that's not someone you'll have children with is the correct way. Exes are not meant to become your friends. That's what I believe. How about you?

I love my boyfriend but I think he has abusive tendencies and he’s going to get worse in the future and I don’t want to stick around for that. He has had a very hard life and he bottles everything up and it’s spilling into our relationship. He thinks he’s perfectly fine but he can turn verbally and emotionally abusive in a second and then he down plays it later on. We’re just a few months in, and he’s been asking me to move in. But I think if I move in with him, he will end up being PHYSICALLY abusive

Been dating this guy for almost a year, we’re not official and he says he’s not ready yet bc he’s going through a lot of stress in life (about to lose his job, his dad is slowly dying, might have to sell his house to pay the hospital bills, plus he just broke up with his ex a couple of days before we met but we didn’t start dating until a couple of months later).

He’s feeling depressed understandably and he’s pushing me away but at the same time he doesn’t want me to leave. I’m just sitting here confused af on what exactly he wants from me…

He told me he wants to work towards an actual relationship with me but wants to take it slow bc he’s not at his best rn. But not sure if I can get over the things he did and said to me while he was stressed out, he said some hurtful things bc he panicked when I told him we should just be friends

I do love him, he also seems like he loves me (he puts in a lot of effort to show it) but I don't know if I should just walk away for now and just be friends or stick by him and ride the wave out?

Hello, I
would like to know your opinion on one minor problem. My boyfriend and I broke up a week ago. (Yes, a week before Valentine's Day!). In fact, he broke up with me. However, I do not understand the reason... You know, the relationship was very nice for me, and I'm afraid I won't have a match like that anymore. To describe it to you, this guy fought for me for 3 months until we finally got together. I think it was all honest on his part that he liked me. The strangest thing is that we are from one city, and when we were were we did the same activities. We trained together at the same sport club, but I don't remember him, only he remembers me. However, after 10 years, we met again and even found that we were studying the same thing and had the same ambitions. He was my best friend, support, lover and we just complemented each other. After half a year of relationship, he told me from day to day that he didn't want a relationship. He told me that he wanted to be alone, to focus on himself. I'm sure he doesn't have anyone else because we were together every day and it was always great until that day. It was a huge shock to me because the day before he called me from work saying that he missed me and that he loved me. I don't know what happened. It hurts me and I don't want it to end like this because it was too muchIt hurts me and I don't want it to end like this because it was too perfect.. He told me that there was no mistake in me, that he still liked me, but that he didn't know how to change his feelings. I would like to ask you what would you do in my place? Will I start to miss him? I don't want this to be our end.

My ex boyfriend initiated contact after few weeks of break up:

Him - "im grateful for everything you have done for me so thank you Sarah"

Me - "all i wanted was an apology.. but if you want to talk let me know"

Him - "no im done.. take care of yourself"

2 days later he contacted again:

Him - "i have so many things to say to you.. but you are not worth the energy."

Me - "thats rude?"

Him - "Just please give my stuff back to my sister please. Leave me alone. Dont contact me again please"

Wtf?
he's the one contacting me first
And he's telling me to leave him alone?
Why would he thank me then? Then few days later, he becomes cold to me...

My ex and I broke up not soon after our 1 year anniversary. I told him I would love a weighted blanket for our anniversary. Anyway, we broke up a few weeks after our anniversary. He was the one who broke up with me, but I moved on after he treated me like crap, and he was sad that I didn’t give him another chance… My friends have been telling that he posts pictures and videos of me. I just got a package in the mail that was addressed to me, and it was a giant box that was all busted up…. I was expecting it to be a big gift that I ordered for my sister but I checked my orders and it wasn’t that. I don’t even know if I should be angry or happy lol.

Should I keep it or return it?
