I would reply that only a toddler would ask for a birthday gift to be returned and one day when he finally matures, he will understand why I never returned it. Then block him.

That said, after my breakup with a girlfriend after two year relationship, I sent nearly everything she gave me in recent months, including my birthday. I didn’t want her to think I wanted anything from her. She got real mad asking me why I returned everything. Even she did not expect anything back. I just didn’t want anything from her at that time.

I apologize for my text this morning and I apologize for our arguments.

Yes, you're beautiful. Yes, you're a sweetheart with a beautiful soul. You're a magnificent person to be around. I was becoming angry because I was beginning to fall in love with you and its something I'm afraid of. I enjoyed many moments with you and this only validated specific things I need to work on. I enjoyed many laughs, your smiles, your cuddles, and love. I hope your dad doesnt have prostate cancer and I hope everything falls in place for you. Your business will flourish and take over the world, and you will one day see the true greatness inside you that you don't see, take care.

Man, he must REALLY want that yoga mat back...

(I said he was acting like a toddler during the 4th of july fight before I left)

Um, no. I'm not going to give him back the yoga mat he got me for my birthday, and it didnt even look new. There was no packaging, no tags, and when I unrolled the mat a dryer sheet fell out. It was likely his ex gfs that he had recently moved out from like a month before we became a couple. I wont respond.
Block him.

And kudos to you for putting an end to this horrible relationship.

No, you are not obligated to return a used yoga mat which was your birthday gift.

block or don't block i don't think it matters. It's over and it seems they both realize it.


he seems like a smart guy and someone who isn't close with their father. I think it's better this way for him, as he'll hopefully learn to respect woman more.

Come on, come, on, come on. Will you be done w/ him already! You shouldn't have to ask total strangers if you should give back some lousy, nasty old used yoga mat that he scraped up in the basement somewhere & had the nerve to say he spent $200 for. Unless you are enjoying this yo-yo-ing back & forth as another poster said.

I don't care if he buys out the whole florist w/ 50 dozens of roses at your doorstep w/ an apology. He's a stupid-@s$ b@St@rd.

Why you still haven't blocked him tells us a LOT about YOU. You guys don't have the mentality of almost 30 yr olds...sounds like silly teenagers here. He's great one day, then horrednous to you the next & tells you what you want to hear w/ fake, so-called sincere-seeming apologies, telling you you're beautiful, etc. & you melt like a stack of cards & wonder...should I or shouldn't I give him another chance. I don't care what's going on in his pathetic life (family problems, etc.). Nothing's an excuse for how he treats you. He can't handle a thing. It's like those weak-@s$ people out there where 1 little thing goes wrong & they hit the bottle.

He's NO man, no catch, etc. you didn't have anything when you were w/ him except a pile of $h!t. Again, don't go back to him. He's probably had 5+ other girls all waiting in the wings. He just picks & chooses who he feels like dealing w/ each day of the week.

Ok wow! This dude is crazy!! Is he on medication? If he is, sounds like he skipped a few doses.

He needs to get the other girlfriend's yoga mat back.
He takes secretive phone calls & then has to go meet someone plus doesn't want to be around cops. Is he buying or selling? & what? --drugs, women...
Run.

He's a narcissist. My brother is one. Acts increasingly worse and then bounces back to 'I love you, you're my only sister, I am sorry that I acted that way, blah blah' exactly like the last text from this guy to the OP.

So he can rope her in, be nice for a minute, and then start acting like his normal self again.
