My thing
My Ex-BF is an engineer. When I was in a relationship with him, he promised me to fix my wrist watch. Fixing watches is his hobby. And he's a collector of old watches too. My Seiko Watch was given from my sister on my b'day in 2001. The condition when I gave it to him was no back-cover and no battery. I forgot how come my watch lost its back-cover.?
Anyway...I broke up with my Ex on Feb.But he still keeps my watch. I have bought a new wrist watch but still I want my wrist watch back due my sister gave it to me as a present.
Two weeks ago I re-sent him an e-mail about my watch. He knew about the historical of my watch. I told him not to fix it,but please I want it back. I'll find a way to fix my watch.
Do you think, what I did to him to ask my watch back is impolite ?
I mean, we never keep in touch since we broke up, he knew my number but hehehe
I lost his (I lost my mobile phone)I did sent him emails 3 times. 1st about our relationship is over, 2nd about my watch and 3rd with subject titled "PLEASE" about my watch and he replied back for the 3rd email.
I really want my watch back.

Go around and ask him in person for it.
think you have every right to ask for it back.....maybe he just does,nt have the time ...
So be glad others r watching ur gear. U loose it anyway!
its urs and he has to give it back .
If that watch was your and was not one of his gifts he will give it to you.
Just make him a visit but before write him another email, then just go for it with no fear. Ask whats yours and then tlak nice and wish him good be a friend whatever happen in the past. He will give it to you if he still have it and you leave it his place you will see.
...what good will it be without the watch?
He's just being a single and irresponsible man. There's a few of us around her and that certainly includes me. So go get it!
I'll ask again... Wish me luck...
Ariel28: When I was a student at the university in Lund, a former friends girlfriend borrowed a videotape from me with the movie "Before the rain"
I liked it very much and have watched it several times, and after a couple of months I asked if I could get it back, but no answer back. I asked again and then they said they lost the movie. But not saying they would replace it or anything.
Then to that same man, we can call him mr V, I borrowed a very expensive book about how social work is practiced around the world.
I asked him several times, and many years after I moved from Lund about that book, and he said he will send it to me. But he never did and we lost contact. It's not about the book itself, but that someone just take a book and keep it. I know that he is a non-materialistic fellow, but that doesn't mean that other peoples items are unimportant.
For me who loves book, I don't let anyone borrow them anymore. If they really are interested, I will give the book to them or buy them a copy.
Your new here? nice name like my nephew Sebastian
Just go get back what is yours in the first place; ask him to call you so you can talk instead of email. Did you mean you broke up with him via an email? Maybe he's angry about that and ignoring your mails now
Hope you'll work it out with him and get your watch back.

Totally get where you're coming from; I also hate books not being returned! My books are the only worldly posessions I care about and these days I only lend them out to family members.
