i accidently gave my items away as a gift

hello i traded a player but forgot to put his item in the trade too. so he took all my items.... (sounds like an excuse for real but my girlfriend accepted the trade while i was shouting her to not accept it since its on her phone but she did it anyway because apparently she cant hear me screaming DONT DO IT) is there anyway i can get it returned as it was un intentional and serioursly he blocked me after and everything because i ♥♥♥♥ed up and then i leaved comments on his profile and he just deleted them. he used my epic fail to gain unfair profit. i dont care much if i dont get the items back but i dont think he should be able to keep them due to fact he could tell it was unintentional as i messaged him on csgo lounge just 5mins before.... letting him know i was going to trade. for his bowie knife forrest ddpat minimal wear....

Items are no longer returned for any reason:

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=9958-MJDG-3003

Steam Support does not restore items that have left accounts for any reason, including trades, market transactions, deletions, or gifting.
It is your responsibility to secure your Steam account. To quickly make trades or sales on the Market, your account must be protected by a Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator. This ensures that only you are able to remove items from your account. If you can’t enable an Authenticator, Steam will hold the trade or Market sell listing for a period of 15 days so that you’ll have enough time to discover and cancel pending transactions if your account was compromised.
Please carefully check the value of the items you want to trade. All trades are confirmed twice in the trade window and a third time via email or the Mobile Authenticator. Never agree to a trade that needs to be made outside of the Steam trade window.
Steam Support will no longer restore lost items. Items often exchange hands multiple times before a restoration request and this means they cannot be restored without duplicating them or removing them from another innocent user’s inventory. Duplicating items has a negative impact on everyone who trades or uses the Market by lowering the value of items.

General Zod May 26, 2016 @ 12:56pm

Only thing you CAN do is report them in their profile. Nothing else can be done

Why are you still complaining here? It's not fixing your issue nor will it.
