[UPDATE] I'm(27F) about to end things with my partner(28F) of 6 years and it's absolutely crushing me.
We broke up over FaceTime on December 30th. I would have preferred to do it in person, but she outright asked me if we were going to break up and I couldn't lie to her. I have absolutely no regrets. The only regret I have is being stuck with a shitty, selfish partner during the most important time of my life and that's something I can't take back.
Anyway, I'm still in Virginia, we've found housing for my sister(she was accepted today!!), and I'll be moving back to the northeast to be with my family after this is all over. She's allowing me to stay on our lease until it's up in March so I don't have to break it, which I appreciate. She's also agreed to mail me my things, which is...frankly, just not happening. It's been over a month and she won't even get me an estimate for shipping. She claims it's 5-7 boxes(I don't have a lot of stuff), and she's guessed that it's going to be about 50$ a box. I asked her for an update a few days ago and she said she could only send me some things if I were good to pay her back immediately, and I wasn't, so she didn't.
I asked her to just mail my things and send me the receipts so I can make payments, as our financial situation is still pretty dire and it's difficult to get to the post office let alone make multiple trips. She says she's financially strapped right now. She makes 50k+ a year, just got her tax return, pays 660 a month in rent, and she's the one who's strapped. I'm flabbergasted and so, so frustrated.
I'm considering sending her mother a message to just...let her know what's going on, and if she can help. Would that be extremely tacky? I know this is kind of touchy overall. I know she could probably sue me for rent if she really wanted to. I want to get this over with the right way, but even now I feel like she has control over the whole situation. I just want my things so I can be done with this.
tl;dr: Ex is dragging her ass on mailing me my things when she's more than capable and I'm not sure what to do.
