My girl still sleeps with a stuffed animal her ex gave her… every night. She said it’s because she likes raccoons and “it’s just a toy.” I said she could keep it but not sleep with it. AITA?

She also admitted that if the rolls were reversed… she’d be mad at me soo I’m kind of at a loss

umm NTA. imo, with how long they were together, its not ok for her to hold on to romantic items like that when she is with someone else.

NTA I think this is a little weird for her to keep. Maybe if it was just like someone she didn’t date seriously, then I guess? But if it was someone serious?? That’s odd.

I can’t say shit, I still sleep w the weighted dino my ex got me. Not bc I miss him/want him back but more so bc a lot of nights it was one of the few things that brought me peace. I’ve stitched legs back on and slowly flattened him a bit but at the end of the day it’s still one of my favorite comfort items. Not saying your gf and I feel the same way about our stuffies and not saying you’re in the wrong but maybe it’s just a vulnerable conversation she doesn’t have the words for rn

Only solution I see here is if you get a different plushie idfk…. That is weird I would not be attatched to a plushie an ex gives me like you’re actually valid for this and you seem so nice and understanding 🩷

Get her a new one instead of complaining? Like literally just go on Amazon and find another cute raccoon from YOU instead of this smh.

And…? If the problem is her having it then yta but if it’s just the sleeping you literally have a d1 opportunity to not only be a good boyfriend and get her a gift but also fix something you obviously feel strongly about

I told her she could keep it and I want to get her another one. My biggest problem tbh is that she kept talking in circles trying to hide that it was her ex that got it for her. She told a long story and kept contradicting herself and it was weird
