5 Years Later, His Ex Wants Her Old Furniture Back. He Said Fine-But She's Moving It Herself.
Key Points:
- A man shared on Reddit that he is reluctant to help his ex-girlfriend and her cousin retrieve old furniture stored in his house, which originally belonged to her grandmother and was given to him six years ago.
- The couple broke up five years ago, and only now are the ex and her cousin demanding the furniture back, doing so in a rude and condescending manner, which the man finds unreasonable.
- He has offered to let the ex’s brother pick up the furniture but refuses to adjust his schedule or help move the items himself, feeling no obligation to assist after such a long time.
- Reddit users largely sided with the man, agreeing that it was strange and inappropriate to wait five years to request the furniture’s return and to be demanding about it.
- The story highlights tensions around expectations and boundaries post-breakup, especially when dealing with belongings and communication years later.
