Tell us about the belongings your ex left behind

Breaking up is hard to do. But what happens with the stuff your ex leaves behind? From a toothbrush to a pair of boxers, the comfy T-shirt that’s so comfy you still sleep in it a decade later or the necklace you gave them that they simply couldn’t keep after you broke up.

We’d love to hear from you about the thing your ex left behind when you broke up, why you’ve kept it instead of giving it back, and what it still means to you.
