Ex bought me an expensive watch before we broke up

Store credit bro also better for the retailer since they will have to suffer from this broads bad decisions if they have to cash refund. I assume it's a skate/surf/urban place since they also sell clothes so why not use the credit to buy a product from a local brand or independent company.

Just turn this whole thing into a net positive.
 
Sell it get money spend money and move on ? I do not agree with sending it back to her, she is out of your life (so no head games) - its finished and you have this item. Sell it - throw it out.
 
Hide it in the back of your closet for a while and forget about it. Wait it out a while.
 
smash it into a thousand pieces and mail it back to her. Uh no, I'm just kidding. I think that you should donate it charity in memory of the good times and then just vow to move forward.
 
In order to that, I'd have to see her again.

And I do not want to ever see her again. At least not for a long time. By then, the receipt will be expired.

No offense, bro, but.....you and I both know this is a trap, and you see all potential answers to it...merely clouded in emotion.
The best answer would be to give it back, and to honestly say that you feel awful wearing it, and you would appreciate it if she would return it and get her money back to spend on herself, but we know that moment will be exploited.

Send somebody else that you trust to do it. Make sure that person ends the conversation with "and don't call Matt, he doesn't want to talk to you, or see you again"
It's harsh, but sometimes nothing short of harshness gets the job done.

Sorry you got caught up in the crazy love, bro. I still need some one to go to Battletech with if you wanna go?

Also an excellent idea (donating it to charity that is). You can have the charity send her an acknowledgment and a tax receipt for her kindness!

Animal Mother, I like your idea too. My concern is that the friend would provide SS's ex with a conduit for listening to how they should TOTALLY get back together. If the ex is genuinely batshit insane, dangerous territory.
 
"Even a broken watch is correct twice a day." -- someone who needs a new watch.

Tell your 'EX' you don't have the 'TIME' for her & send her an old TIMEX!!8)

Mail it back to her? There's a solution if you are willing to find one. The right thing to do would be to give it back. You're never going to enjoy the gift anyway because it's tied to her. Put the past in the past and as Ali said, move on.
 
Don't sell it.. never sell a gift..

Just give it back.

He'll probably sell it and maybe he'll give you some of the money
 
It was a gift so she has no right to it. If it reminds you of her, I would suggest taking it back to the store and getting something else.

I have gifts from ex gf's and I never think of them when wearing the clothes and jewelry or playing the video games etc. I suppose if I did have some sort of emotional attachment represented by the gift I would sure as hell trade it in for something else or sell it. You don't want to dwell on her at all.

As far as giving it back, fuck her. She doesn't need it. I'm not trying to sound like a dick but Nixon watches are not that expensive. (100-300?) I am sure she can afford it. Its not like she bought you a Rolex. If she did: score. Sell that shit or trade it in for something else.

Your a young guy and I can see how you might have feelings still especially right out of a relationship. If it bothers you I would trade it in or return it for the cash. She left the receipt and box right? It really cannot hurt to have some cash in your bank account and if she did you dirty well you deserve it.

I am positive she has the type of money to afford the watch she bought you. It ain't shit to her except a reason for you and her to speak again. I think returning it will just get her to come back around. She could put return to sender on the mail or bring that shit right back to your home and apologize.

Also the thing about gifts is well they are gifts as in "here you go, this is yours, I want you to have this." So I don't think she is expecting the watch back. Honestly the watch wouldn't even be on my mind after a break up.

I guess since the receipt is due to expire, I would go ahead and cash it in and get the money.
 
If it were me, I would sell the watch and buy drugs with the money. If you do it right, then you won't even remember her name anymore or half the time you guys spent together by the time all of the drugs are gone...
