Tarheel - It does sound strange that your W would leave such obvious stuff as clothes. My W took all of this. She left her DVDs behind because she doesn't have a DVD player. But what am I, a storage room? I think she forgot the dolls. She once mentioned the books but then no more and I dropped it. It was early and I thought perhaps she would come back. But come on, she spent about 10K (of her parents' money) on appliances and furniture (and clothes...): she's not coming back within a month.
I don't mind the space it takes and it doesn't really bring up memories, except this anxiety about sending them out of not. I'm mostly interested to do it to give her a sense that I'm also separating from her, perhaps giving her second thoughts. And if it doesn't, so what: she's not going to come back because I still have some of her stuff. What are the odds that we won't get back together because I gave her the remaining stuff?
