Meh, drop at her door, dont say a word, dont look in her house, dont make drama. Walk off. If you feel you MUST say something say "heres your stuff drop me a line if I missed anything"

I'd mail it to her and stay as impersonal as I could about it.

impersonal?? why make it easy if you got dumped? at least get a laugh out of it..



i once mailed back panties, with a note- "i think these are your panties, , i asked my mom to get the stains out-we did the best we could"

I told mom she almost got a chance to meet you-my mom said she hopes you are feeling better..

1 - How is she your girlfriend if you only dated two weeks?

2 - How can you have a nasty breakup if you've barely had any time to become emotionally invested in the "relationship"?

I did this to a guy I saw for years. Just dumped it on the front porch and left. The next day there was a knock on my door with a sherrif's agent serving me with papers for stalking. Of course the judge thought it was a friggin' joke and I stated I didn't believe the court of law was established to help make it easier for someone to break up with someone when a phone call would suffice - he just didn't want to finalize it. In fact this jacknut actually called me a year later to try again - fat friggin chance. I mean it was painfully obvious by dumping his stuff off I was done with him I didn't need a judge to decide that. He just wanted the last word.

My suggestion is to take a Polaroid of what you left and how you left it. Or just stay the hell away from her house completely.

If its worth more than 10 bucks, put it in a package and use UPS. Or just drop it at her doorstep when you know she'll be gone.

Giving stuff back after a nasty breakup

Put it in a box, put it by her door, ring the bell, then leave.

How much stuff would you have after two weeks? Really?

It also doesn't sound "nasty". She just stopped seeing you.

I would not stress about it. Throw the stuff in a box in your closet for a while. If you never hear from her again. Pitch it. If you do, give it back. Big deal.
