Jam, curtains, and even silicone breasts: what Latvian men take after divorce

A heated discussion has erupted on the social network Threads, where women share amazing and shocking stories about what items their ex-partners tried to take after a breakup.

It must be said that the stories are very diverse — from truly heavy to laugh-out-loud funny.

The author of the discussion on Threads writes: "Girls, what did your ex take after the divorce or the end of the relationship? I heard from third parties that there are cases where people even take the curtains, one even unscrewed the toilet while leaving. And these are real situations happening right among us."

The surveyed women willingly share their colorful experiences:

"He sent an Excel invoice with all the things he gave and bought me during the relationship (without my request). Instead of sending him money, I packed everything into a big box, sent it through DPD directly to his mom with a note: 'Here’s the kind of person you raised...'

"My ex took mugs bought at the Picasso Museum and in Gibraltar, and a home fragrance from Zara. An aesthetic, you see.

"A friend’s ex demanded that she remove her silicone breast. If not for him, then for no one.

"One evening, he was stuffing a bag with a jar of coffee and teaspoons with a crazy look. While gathering his things, he also took some questionable items, but I still remember the jar of coffee and spoons as a joke.

"He took quail eggs out of the fridge — the ones his mom gave him.

"Not my story, but my friend’s ex took even the potato masher when he left. He never cooked — never — not to mention mashing potatoes.

"I left taking only the child and a few of his things. My ex-husband divorced me without my knowledge (it turns out, that’s possible too), and he kept everything that was acquired over 25 years of marriage — the house with property, land, forest. Later he called and asked if his new woman could wear my clothes. He got the property, and I got a lifelong aversion to relationships.

"Not my story, but a friend’s boyfriend decided to tear off all the wallpaper he had put up when he left. The wallpaper was bought with my friend’s money. Self-respect.

"He took the wedding gifts given by his relatives and the artificial fur fabric gifted by his mother (I didn’t manage to sew it in three years).

"My husband came to live with me, in my mom’s apartment… now he demands half of the apartment!

"He took everything he could. Even my winter boots and children’s toys, not to mention my nerve cells.

"We saved a kitten together, which was only a few weeks old, but he claimed it as his own.

"One can only take material things, forgetting about emotions, experiences, and the time when everything seemed rosy. You can’t take what isn’t there.

"Not my story, but my father once took everything from us. Even jars from the cellar. I recently remembered that for a while we didn’t even have a refrigerator. So — I believe these stories.
