Fake.

Usually, if it is something really bitter and nasty they do a write up that goes on and on and on like my posts. People who are bitter ramble incomprehensible in the first stages of Getting Over Her Part One. There is no ramble.

This give us, the voyeur, nothing to voyeuree at.

I feel cheated.

But would sexy be the first word you used? Especially if the breakup was bitter enough that you’re selling all her things on ebay?

And what’s to stop her from coming home and collecting her stuff before he can sell it?

I like how he writes the description that includes “diamonds, gold, who knows?”

Uh huh. Sure. I’ll bet the box is just FILLED with diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, platinum and gold.

:rolleyes:
