    He paid for it so he should get the money back. How would you feel if it was the other way round? It's stealing to keep it.

    I agree absolutely.
  • How old are your children? Are they aware that you are even CONSIDERING keeping someone else's money? What lessons do you think you would be teaching them by doing this. It's NOT your money, it NEVER WAS your money. Give it back.

    So...you're morally bankrupt with the IQ of a house brick!!!!

    How is this a dilemma???? It isn't now or ever was your money.....

    GIVE IT BACK

    This should never even have been posted, come on MSE, get a grip.
  • The fact that you are actually asking this question, regardless of who was responsible for the split, makes me think he is better off without you!

    NO because it's his money and it would be theft to keep it. Am so shocked that you would even consider this. Blimey!:eek:

  • Absolutely not. It's not your money so you have to forward the refund on to your ex.

    What sort of individual could even consider doing anything other than returning it? Maybe some cheap prostitute or crack addict?

    To the OP.

    ....so are u going to keep the money...?.
  • Do the right thing and give it back. If I received I'd probably give you a chunk back for your honesty especially if I knew money was tight.
