A while ago i moved out of a house i had shared with my partner for a year....and while everyone told me to take everything that i had bought where do you draw the line??
The actual packing part turned out to be bitter sweet, i had my 5 best girlfrends there with me who all turned up with 2+ bottles of champagne to get us through the afternoon.
Lets just say that after an hour we had to stop the packing and focus more on the booze.
All my friends had different views on what i should claim as mine...some were along the lines of "take the TV he will die without it", or "take the couch he will have nowhere to sit "and the clincher was "you pay for the foxtel...cut that off".
But in the end do you really want a broken relationship to turn bitter because your ex is currently sitting on a milk crate staring at a blank wall where the TV used to be and thinking that B*TCH.
I think when you do this it has to be done in stages and maybe one day i will go and get the TV and couch which are both mine, but for that first initial move out period stick with the non controversial items like your shoes and clothes..then go from there.
If you ever do need to go through this make sure you have our friends there to help you and a LOT of alcohol on hand...it really does help :)
