<human>: My ex-boyfriend and I broke up a little over a year ago, and I still have a bunch of his stuff in a box in my closet. I really hate having it, but inside the box are his sweater, 2 small books of his, some jewelry he gave me, love notes, et cetera. I really don't want any of this stuff. Talking to him is not an option -- (he's a crazy ex. I'm afraid what would happen if I tried to give the stuff back to him). But still, I would feel bad if I threw away or burned HIS belongings. Of course, I could just throw away or burn the notes. But what have you guys personally done in a situation like this?

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: My boyfriend left a lot of his stuff behind, so what do I do with it? Giving it back is not an option.
