First off you're just 16. you have no idea if you will marry this girl or not. things change minute to minute. secondly you know you had anger issues prior to being with her and knew what she went through. you turned around and horribly abused her. You are 16 and need to end things with her like an adult male, let her go on her way and you need to get therapy and work on yourself first before being with her or anyone else for that fact.

In the words of Marie Kondo, keep only those clothes that ‘spark joy’. Donate the rest. As others have said, Goodwill aren’t going to question you about it. Bras should be ok if labels are still attached and they aren’t worn. Underwear/knickers/panties, whatever they’re called in your country, can only be donated if they came in a sealed plastic bag which is still sealed.

We don’t use eBay here, so I’m not qualified to give an opinion on it. We do have a very good online market though (Mercado Livre). When buying clothing and some other items (it can be used or new), the buyer usually have a month to return the product and get a refund. I do like this, as I’ve returned a dress it didn’t fit. Obviously you need to return it exactly as they send it (so if there’s indication that it has been used it would fit the policy, but I don’t know what happens, as I never did something of the sort).

Are there any homeless shelters or domestic abuse shelters nearby that you could donate to?

They would love to have unworn clothes that still have the tags on to give to the ladies there to help them get back on their feet.

They will not even question why a man is dropping off womens clothes, for all they know it's from a family member and you are the one handling the donation.

Yes. And they pay their executives very, very well. and some cherry pick their goods for valuables and then sell them outside the community in which they are donated in order to maximize profits. Some have been found to vastly overinflate the values of donated goods for people seeking tax writeoffs. Like I said, the organization has problems.

But the concept of Goodwill is to give disabled or challenged workers an opportunity to develop work skills that might make them suitable for other jobs, or just give them meaning in an environment where their issues won't cause them to get fired.
