Hey Sue!!
Since it's been a long time--I think it's better suited to just leave it as that. I also have some of my ex's stuff--but I don't think it would be too good to give it back to him after so long. My thinking is that my ex has probably forgotten about it--and if he really wants it back, he could call me anytime. ALso, I think that to give it back wouldn't be very "useful" for the ex--b/c it would just leave bad memories w/him. I have my ex's stuff hidden way back in my closet--b/c while it is nice sometimes to look at it, it has some bad memories which I'd rather not deal with.
Don't know if that made much sense--I have a really bad headache right now--so I'm trying my best!
I'm writing you an email right now, by the way!! Love ya!!
