Today, I finally gave away all of the stuffed animals that I've been hoarding for years. Proud, I told my family. They congratulated me by buying me stuffed animals. FML

Today, my dog showed me her latest kill. Too bad it was the stuffed animals my dead grandmother had given me as a child that had a lot of sentimental value to me. FML

Today, while at Six Flags my boyfriend won a huge stuffed animal for me. After a whole day of carrying it around, when he dropped me off he told me that he wants the stuffed animal back. He just didn't want to carry it around all day. FML

Today, I got married. I received a beautifully wrapped gift from my dad. I was full of excitement until I opened it and found two taxidermied rabbits. The ones I had when I was in the fifth grade. FML

Today, a tarantula joined my stuffed animal collection in its drawer. It, unfortunately, wasn't stuffed. FML

Today, I found an old toy that I gave to my daughter several years ago. It was still unopened, and long forgotten, so I decided to re-gift it to one of my friend's children. My daughter immediately remembered her "favorite" toy and started crying inconsolably. FML

Today, my daughter had a meltdown when I told her I donated some of her old toys to Goodwill. It turns out Toy Story has taught her that toys have feelings and that she has a meaningful relationship with them. She's in her teens. FML

Today, I was at work when my mother called. She gave me great news that she had finally cleaned out my room and all those "old and useless" books that I had in there. Those "useless" books that she had just trashed were all antiques and worth about $500 each. There were 27 books in there. FML

Today, I came home to find my entire action figure collection was gone. My parents told me I am too old for toys, so they opened all of the packages and donated them to Goodwill. I had an original Boba Fett, and my entire collection was worth more than twenty thousand dollars. FML

Today, my ex-boyfriend surprised me with a gorgeous, giant stuffed tiger as a belated birthday gift. I thought it was a lovely gesture until a friend told me she had thrown it in the dumpster behind our building this morning. FML

Today, I met my new roommate. I also met her stuffed animals, who introduced themselves to me. My roommate makes inanimate objects talk. FML

Keep them if they have sentimental value. I kept mine and I'm a guy.

Maybe they wanted you to keep it?

I still have all of my stuffed animals which I plan on passing down to my children someday. I have one that I've had since I was 4 and it has a cape attached to it. Then I have one that i got after a car accident, which was this year. The car swerved to the dirt road, went 6 ft in the air then flipped over 3 times. It has sentimental meaning.

I've had one for almost 50 years that was in a plane crash with me. I'm never getting rid of that one.

#35 Im sorry to hear about the plane crash. The good part is that you're alive. That's quite a long time and it's very understandable though. Did you suffer from ptsd?

Thanks, I didn't like flying much after that but have gotten better about it over the years.

#40 No problem. I can understand that. I would be scared to get on a plane after that. With me I have problems sitting in the front seat of the car since I was the passenger in the front seat. I've had horrible ptsd but I'm learning to cope with it.

Hey! Keeping a few stuffed animals around isn't all bad, OP! I have a few I keep with me from my childhood, and even sleep with the one my boyfriend gave me a few years back. (:

Ugh I have a similar story.. I recently purged my closet and got rid of almost 4 full huge garbage bags of clothes. I went on vacation to visit family and my aunt approached me with a bunch of clothes she planned on giving me. I told her I didn't need them and went on my way. I later noticed she had hidden them in my suitcase. They mean well :/

Nothing wrong with keeping/collecting stuffed animals... My wife has a large collection of bears and knowing that she loves them I even buy her a new one from time to time.
