My ex and I were together for 10 years. We lived together too. I left him and it was for the best for both of us. We tried to get back together and that made things worse lol
Anyway, I have two side tables that he got from his late grandparents, a patio set his parents got for us, and some random belongings he left. When we split I gave him 3 months alone in the house but he must have forgotten these. He still has keys.
I’m moving and can’t take these things with me. I’m going to ask him if he wants these things. But should I be there when he comes to get them? Is it rude if I ask him to let himself in with the keys he still has?
I’d rather not be there but idk if that’s rude. We are on “good terms” but not speaking. Thanks!

How is this rude? If anything, it just seems like an efficient way to avoid any unnecessary stress or awkwardness. Worrying about whether it’s rude means ur making his feelings a priority, but you must put ur own feelings first. If you don’t want to be there when he picks up the stuff, don’t.
Haul it off to a storage place and pay for one month. Mail him the key with the information to the storage place and the deadline for picking it up.
You can be there or not be there – neither is rude. I’d definitely tell him about the stuff and give him a set of time&date options to choose from to plan to retrieve
