I never asked my ex-lovers to return anything I gave them. Even when the relationship ends badly, I remember I gave them those gifts when things were good. Asking for them back would seem petty.

I don't know how expensive your gifts were, but unless you have something in writing/contract that in the event the relationship ends all property will be returned to the original owner, you most likely will not get them back...even in a small claims court.
If they are items that have been passed down to you from family or friends, maybe just talk to him and explain that the gifts have a lot of meaning to you... and nicely ask for them back.
He may shock you and return them to you!! Good Luck!!

not sure why a few answers given question if you are gay or not - whats that to do with anything?
It can be painful when you split to leave behind gifts given as a token of love if you later find that love was being betrayed. But whether this was the case or not as others have said - a gift is a gift. Why should they give it back. Try to remember the happiness you felt getting them, giving them. Try not to resent that love you felt.
Your feelings are natural - ignore those answers that slag you off - but try to move on and remember happy times. Resentment will eat at you far more than him so it's not worth it.

Uh ... simply the answer is you can't things you give to a person you love are not taken away because you don't know if even if you guys broke up that person still loves you and wants to remember you through all those gifts you gave in those moments when the love was there gifts given in a relationship they are memories that simply to your bad luck cannot be taken away
sorry!!

Okay why is everyone so 'OMG ARE YOU GAY?'? God, it's annoying. It's not like it's a sin to be gay. Anyways, if you want the gifts back, just sit back and think about how important they actually are to you. Do you want them back because you're angry that you're not together, or do you just want them back because they're special to you? Either way, it's true; a gift /is/ a gift, so I guess they are his, now. But if you truly want them, just go get the same things for yourself! :)

Anything you give him as a gift is his to keep. He is under no legal obligation to return them and if he is smart he will sell them and try and get some money since the relationship is over.

you can try by calling and offering to give him back the gifts he gave you in exchange for the gifts you gave him so you can have closure and move on. try and be nice about it. if he says no then yea you're out of luck.

The key word here is: "Gifts" and if indeed they were they are no longer yours. Move on it is easier then trying to get them back. Good luck.

Gifts are property of the people you give them to once they leave your hands. Out of luck buddy.
