Things Ex Wants Back

[Anonymous]

Old people get crowns redone and fillings redone.

The dentist gives you the removed stuff so you can sell it as scrap gold. They don't have time to fool with giving you the value of it. And it belongs to the dental customer.

My grandma cashed a bunch in. Hers and her husbands. It was worth turning in. Maybe as much as $200.

Definitely return the items. It doesn’t cost anything to be kind.

I was clearing out a closet and found some things of his: his deceased father's gold teeth fillings and a sentimental chess set that travelled the world with him. Should i get those things back to him

Yes you should.

Do people keep gold teeth from people have passed? I've never heard this.

Honest funeral homes will return gold fillings, jewelry etc when someone is creamated

Pulling out teeth before someones cremated sounds strange to me.

Not to be morbid, but are they pulled before cremation or leftover after cremation? I have no clue what temperatures are needed for cremation or melting gold.

I find it so strange you're even asking this. Was he an abusive jerk or something?

I think they’re left after the cremation. What else to do with them? Probably don’t want the urn rattling.

lol at a man complaining to his first wife of 15 years about the cost of fertility treatments with second wife. What a catch.

Why? There's literally no reason for you to be communicating together at all

He reached out ostensibly to give me a heads up he's moving a couple of streets down from me. And I guess the energy of the purchase of a home unearthed some things: latent resentment, lost treasures. We hadn't spoken for 7 years before this.

Don't meet for drinks. I can't imagine this helping things. Just mail him the stuff.

Maybe he has regrets. Would you want to hear that? At best you'll get an apology. At worst, you'll reopen old wounds.

I read it as him hoping that OP also has medical problems and fertility problems so the guy doesn’t feel like he made the wrong decision.

Why would you store his stuff/crap for 15 years? And, why is he calling you? Get rid of him and his belongings. If you don’t want to see him, set a time to leave them on your front porch.

15 years from now the only contact I expect to have with my ex would be to joyfully attend our mutual kids wedding.

I wouldn't sit around to hear him complain about a 15 year past divorce settlement.

We've both moved on. He knows I've remarried and have kids. His new wife is a decade younger than me.
