Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Sometimes, our childhood relics and memories are all we have to feel happy in our lives. Holding onto that innocent nostalgia from our youth is a beautiful memory. I'm not in the business of erasing people's memories from their life, but it's surprising how many people are. I used to love to travel, and I would buy an interesting postcard everywhere I went. I would be devastated if I knew someone got rid of my collection.


Outside of childhood memories that make our hearts skip a beat, entering a relationship with someone who has security issues might mean your entire relationship history is going to be siphoned off to the land of dementia, meaning they will make you break any insignificant tie to the person. That was a personal rant, so let's get back to the story. 


In the story below, the protagonist is a victim to his girlfriend's insensitive actions. Read the full story below for all the juicy details.

  • I would absolutely lose it if my boyfriend just simply threw out anything of mine without asking. Unless it's rotting food in the fridge, there's no reason for anyone to throw out your belongings. It's an absolute sundering of privacy and trust. It's a betrayal, and he needs to get out of this relationship.

    Spe... Why did you not go the shop that bought the cards, and demand them back, as they were stolen from you?

    If they did not agree (your gf would have to pay them back, probably) you could've gone to the police to file charges.

    This is not a 'heehee, I sold you stuff', 'now, I sold you stuff!' kind of thing. This is theft.
