yeah, i agree that shirt is gone. you have to let it go: physically and emotionally. get a new one if you can.

i had a similiar thing happen with my fave thrift store t-shirt.

the lesson i learned is never leave behind or give away a fave article of clothing. never. unless you marry the guy or gal, and then i would have to srsly think about it.

I don't think you're ever getting that shirt back. :( It's not worth it.

Oh c'mon! Be grown up about it! Just go get the shirt back! Any decent human being would give it back. However, if the person in question is being intentionally mean in holding said shirt for emotional ransom, then I suppose it's harder than just the physical act of retrieving the shirt. Tell this person that they are being a child if they can't just give it back.

If you figure out how to get your shirt back, can you also figure out how to get my good credit/dignity/what little sanity I had back? Cause that would be fucking fabulous. Thxs!

You have to make a choice. Do you want your shirt or your dignity?

Ask a mutual friend to get it (you will owe them and come off as a bit of a dick). Or go get it with a friend in tow (still come off as a bit of a dick).

A) You can't. He knows it's yours and you would already have it back if he had any intention of returning it.

B) You can't. Why do you think he kept the shirt and it plastering pictures of himself wearing it on Facebook?

C)Why are you checking his Facebook? aren't you guys broken up?

My ex-boyfriend left several pairs of boxers at my apartment. They met the business end of my scissors.

This is related only slightly: Can we have a Jezebel advice column? Where we submit questions and you guys choose one and everyone gives us their advice? People here tend to have really good advice.

Also I'd be like 'Hey I am going to be nearby for a little bit this afternoon with a friend, can I swing by and get my shirt?' Then you're in and out of there really quickly. If this doesn't work, forget it.

@spikenard: There was one. Pot pysch. kind of took it on for a bit, but it kind of went by the wayside. Maybe they're trying to avoid what happened to Tomato Nation?

In high school, my roommate's boyfriend once used my favorite t-shirt to clean up after himself, as it were. I had no idea, just knew that the shirt was gone.

He then appeared wearing it one day at crew practice, at which point I realized what must have happened. This added a nice layer of grossness to the shittiness of the shirt-stealing.

Ah, high school. Le sigh.

Oh god I'm glad this came up.

My ex has my signed David Mack comics, and I'm not sure if I could even get them back.

These responses make me think I'll never see them again, and he's my favorite comic artist and he (David Mack) gave them to me at a book fair. :(
