Just reject every time they offer you anything because one day if they are dissatisfied with you they will remind you how much stuff they gave you and you will be the ungrateful one.

Ha NO! He has no mental inventory of his belongings! This makes it easy in a way for me to pitch his shit! Ive done it many times and he hasn’t evennoticed. @GunFinger I do it with guilt though - I am not sure if what I am pitching has any sentimental value. Sometimes not even sure if it has monetary value.
@BalmyNites This is easily avoided bc they know he had a hoarding issue and there’s almost no hope of him recovering seamus’ teapot even if he remembered he had it!!

@BalmyNites I’m trying not to be rude … lol to me, if my hubby was an alcoholic it would make sense not to offer him a drink…. they themselves beleive he has a hoarding problem. Why are they giving us more stuff???

@DoubleRings You don’t have to be rude, there’s a difference between assertive & aggressive 😊 Just politely & consistently refuse each time something gets offered

@SW-User I should try to offer them something Even if i think they don’t need it, see how they react just for research. Cause other than the knick knacks, which they have organized nicely in their own home, they don’t store anything. It might be interesting to see how they decline my offer.

@DoubleRings
Yup.. then you could use that same reason to decline their next offer.. maybe they'll finally take the hint..
Or simply tell them that you won't be accepting anything from them that you don't need or have a use for and that they must stop giving things to your husband.

Take it and throw it out. If they ask where it is tell them in the attic until you redecorate or politely tell them you don’t want their 40 year old stuff

You are allowed to be rude in this instance.
They are enabling.
Your husband needs help. If he is unwilling to seek help, you are not under any obligation to stay .
