I think that depends on the situation. If the ex ask for it, then she should return it to the ex. But if the ex is not asking for it- then your friend can keep it. If she doesn't want to keep the gifts,- she can place it on box and just put in the store room so she won't see those gifts that may remind of her ex.

It's okay to receive a gift from your former boyfriend. Just take it as a friendly gift. Aren't they friends after they broke up? Maybe she just think about it too much. Hey it's just a gift. Why bother?

For me, better not to return it back. Just keep it or just place it in a box and keep it away or give it to another person. returning back the gifts to your boyfriend is somewhat unethicl for me.

Well, i think this is not necessary since we do not expect to continue contacting. But the relationship does exist and it can be regarded as a gift for you guys last memories. So do not care too much coz that doesn't has much meaning at all. Relax.

That is so easy.If your ex does not ask you to return it, then you should keep it.If he ask you to return all of it,then give it back.But for me, a gift that is given to you is yours already and you should not return it when they are not asking you to.

It is a gift. She can do whatever she likes with it. If she wants to return it, I think she should.

Absolutely yes return the gift, because it only reminds her the memories and people turning back what they received has a pride to carry. Which you don't want any trouble or any argument to your ex-boyfriend that I buy you that this and whatever. So the best solution to clear your doubts is to return the things. But if the former boyfriend is kind, well its fine. take or keep it or put in on the trash can or (in more plite way) give it to others instead.

It is not proper, I think. If you do, your friend is still in the spell of bitterness. Let it be, she can just accept as a keepsake.

that is stupid why return it when it was a gift he gave it to you with a good heart unless it might destroy your new relationship then keep it some place where your new boyfriend get find it but don't return it

For my opinion, don't return the gift because it is a gift a special thing that came from someone who become part of her life. .The gifts which I received from my former boyfriend still I kept it :)

yes ofcourse yes.you should be loyal to your present bf.he is loving you thinking that you wouldn't cheat on him.so be according to his expectation.if you accept his gift it will be that you want to be with him again and he too wants you to be with him.please return it.accepting it is not good moral act.
