Responses:

when I did this we moved to a whole new city with only what would fit in my truck. try that, maybe? -- nm - mafic Jun 1, 12:32
people=women? - Danedukenuuk Jun 1, 12:29
usually girl stuff overrides guy stuff, and the guy belongings are thrown out -- nm - peglegpete Jun 1, 12:28 2
- stop watching movies. -- nm - Stephen Jun 1, 12:33
- ...unless the guy has nicer stuff (like in my case). -- nm - kelly Jun 1, 12:31
burn ir down for the insurance -- nm - Beaker Jun 1, 12:27
It's hard. Still haven't figured it out yet. I tried to give a good bit of leeway and just focus on things that I thought were important. - pmb Jun 1, 12:25 5
- hmm. i'm assuming you both have *good* stuff. we don't really, so i guess we have that on our sides. ;) -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:26 4
  - Well I have the whole "did your ex-wife pick that out? Then I don't want it" thing to deal with. - pmb Jun 1, 12:28 3
    - hoo boy. -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:36
    - but your ex-wife picked you.... - dogbert183 Jun 1, 12:32 1
      - Ha! Touche, sir, touche! -- nm - mara Jun 1, 12:33
if tv and movies have taught me anything, the answer is you move in and slowly his stuff will be put in storage till only your stuff remains -- nm - dogbert183 Jun 1, 12:21 1
- my stuff really isn't that great though. quirky yes. quality no. -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:23
Easy. His house, your stuff. Then you have equal ownership of the whole. :-P -- nm - TWuG Jun 1, 12:19 1
- this is a whole other thing. it's so totally his house. - kare Jun 1, 12:20
My answer - Stephen Jun 1, 12:16 6
- hmm... food for thought. thanks! -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:18
- but that means *moving* everything, then sorting. double the work. -- nm - Andie Jun 1, 12:17 4
  - I'm talking just about any artwork that might be up and nick nacks - Stephen Jun 1, 12:20
  - i think i have to move it anyway though, if i want to go the garage sale route. :( -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:18 2
    - i figure the extra money and time you spend, isn't worth it. i put stuff on my curb every day for *weeks* with a free sign. - Andie Jun 1, 12:20 1
      - .... and some smart ass took the sign -- nm - dogbert183 Jun 1, 12:30
what we did: make a list of what you need furniture wise, then if you had two of them, decide whose is better. - Andie Jun 1, 12:16 7
- *flag on the play* - Stephen Jun 1, 12:22
- Oh, poor Dave. You're a monster. -- nm - David Jun 1, 12:18 4
  - it really did start as a list! but it was like 'my couch or your couch?" obviously mine. "my bed or your crappy futon?" - Andie Jun 1, 12:18 3
    - i like this too. thank you for going through this before me! ;) -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:24 2
      - heh. - Andie Jun 1, 12:26 1
        
        (btw i thought i was posting this below the "if i saw it in a store" thread. see, it's getting to me already! -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:39
- hee! this is good. thanks. -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:17
I was a dude, so I really didn't have any stuff. A microwave, a t.v., and clothes. -- nm - CQ Jun 1, 12:15 4
- my god, when was the operation? congrats! - kare Jun 1, 12:17 3
  - wiseass :) car parts? cool!!!!!! -- nm - CQ Jun 1, 12:18 2
    - oh, you have *no* idea. -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:19 1
      - ~slow ride.........take it easy..........slow ride........take it easy~ -- nm - CQ Jun 1, 12:20
Kick him out. -- nm - Loyola Jun 1, 12:14
you each after to throw out stuff. -- nm - tRuMaN Jun 1, 12:14 5
- yes, we are definitely planning to do this. and give some to his roomie (who has almost nothing) and have a giant garage sale. -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:15 3
  - it's a really good excuse to just *get rid of stuff*. - Andie Jun 1, 12:17 2
    - after six years at this place, i definitely need to weed. bigtime. -- nm - kare Jun 1, 12:20 1
      - my rule of thumb was 'if i saw this in a store today, would i *have* to have it?" - Andie Jun 1, 12:22
- ugg, not after, have. -- nm - tRuMaN Jun 1, 12:14
