Are Women Always Confused?

This female, who has been separated from her ex for some months, still has all the cards, presents and basically everything from the relationship still out in the open. She still uses his pet name for a few things but doesnt holla at him at all. No calls, no meeting, nothing

What does it mean?
Re: Separated From Her Ex, But Holds On To His Stuff by carbonate(m): 12:44am On Mar 21, 2006
like wheneva they talk she is brief, always cold n generally acts like 'iron maiden' With all these tings out in d open and still having d pics n all d memories. Has she truely moved on or is she deceiving her self? Is it possible 2 move on like dat, wid all dat stuff not affectn u. Also when asked 2 return pictures, refuses too and yet acts like ur d last person on earth she would want 2 talk 2! I mean dis is a true story, is it jst a solitary case or all gals r like this @ times. Ne clues abt wots going on? grin

It's possible that she's not ready to let go. She may know it's over, but to actually put away all those things she has left out around her, that will be what makes it 'real' to her. It is said that the end of a relationship can be felt as deeply as the death of someone, I think she's just coping with it in her own way.

Methinks she's trying to show she's still friends with him even though they're no longer "more than friends." I t's better than some relationships that end with open animosity on both sides.

Women are an enigma. They communicate by signals, rather than verbally. So, it's up to the ex to decode those cryptic signals, and take the appropriate action.

Worse still, this kind of kooky behavior varies from woman to woman. So, only somebody who's been around a particular woman can predict her messages to any degree of accuracy.

women are evil,

they get a man to sell his soul buying them thousands of dollars worth engagement rings,

then when they end the relationship, they have the gall to actually keep the ring as if it were a GIFT.

I'd say, all men should have compromising photos of their women taken after engagement as a gift.

your user-name most accurately depicts your wit judging by your input.
get over your bad experience (if at all) and become a better person.

The man might have misbehaved before they broke up -- thus although she still loves him the momentoes are there to serve as a reminder, both of the sweet time they shared and of the fact that after giving so many gifts, he misbehaved.

If they're very precious things like gold or diamonds do you expect her to get rid of them?

An engagement ring is not a memento or reminder, it is a representation of the promise to get married. No matter whose fault the engagement ends, it should be returned.

Even barring that, engagement rings tend to costs thousands of dollars. If women make a habit of keeping them even after they've decided to end the engagement, then men should NOT buy any such things till after the marriage. It doesn't make sense to me to throw money away in that manner.

An engagement ring is a gift -- or do you expect your friend to return all gifts you gave him/her when you quarrel no matter how expensive it is? That's pettiness.
Re: Separated From Her Ex, But Holds On To His Stuff by idiot(m): 6:10pm On Mar 25, 2006
An engagement ring is not a gift.

In case you don't know, gifts are things given out of love, w/o any expectation of anything in return.

An engagement ring is "required" by most women, and is given in expectation of getting married.

It is definitely not a gift.

An engagement ring isn't a gift. Its something that has to be returned if for any reason the wedding does not hold. Unless the two parties marry then get divorced, that is the only time it doesn't have 2 b returned. Such is life, grin
Re: Separated From Her Ex, But Holds On To His Stuff by mamaput(f): 6:36pm On Mar 28, 2006
I keep things too.
Only when i break up i pack them away.Till am over the relationship.
I once gave a man back everything he gave me. The good stuff expensive jewelery.

maybe she likes to keep the good memories if her life

On my bday my ex gave me a magnificent gift: a huge painting of me
it was soo beautiful, all my relatives were amazed at the work and time that went into the gift.

You think Im gonna return it??

you must be mad! It hangs in my room, but not as a reminder to go running back to him, but as a reminder to what i deserve in life and nothing less.

O' girl is caught up.

For the time being she needs to box up those items and dump them in her garage somewhere, if they remind her of him.
