We moved in together a few months ago and over the months we moved a bunch of stuff from her dad’s place into our basement. As it stands now there are about 80-90 totes in our basement full of “memories”, like her clothes from when she was a baby, old laptops that don’t work anymore, beanie babies, Barbie’s, etc etc. I’ve talked to her about getting rid of some stuff but she refuses. She even started crying when I brought it up. I’d say about 95% of the stuff in the totes will never get used.
In the rest of our house, if there’s a flat surface, it’s basically covered in whatever she can put there. Our house isn’t really messy in the conventional hoarding way I guess you’d say. Stuff is organized and neat but it’s still a lot of stuff.
