So backstory, my ex broke up with me a few days ago. It was not mutual at all and I am devastated.  Personally I was really blind sighted by this, as I thought our relationship was going great and then he just out of nowhere said he had been praying about it and realized that God thought we should break up. I also prayed about our relationship (we’re both fairly religious) and I felt like God was happy with our relationship. Anyway, he told me he’s willing to talk about it in a few days, but he needs time. So I’m thankful for that. 

He’s asked for his stuff back: his hoodie, some pairs of socks, this necklace he gave me for Valentine’s Day, a stuffed animal he gave me for Valentine’s Day, and his apartment keys. And he’s asked that I grab my stuff: my acoustic guitar, a Phantom of the Opera mug, and some clothes I left at his place. I’m going there tomorrow while he’s in class because I can’t really bear to see him yet. 

But for some reason I feel compelled to spray his hoodie with my perfume. Right now it smells like him (and my tears but that’s because I’ve been a mess and I miss him a lot). I don’t know why I want to do it. It feels manipulative. What do you guys think? Is it an asshole thing to do?
