What to do about Ryanair flights - no longer using

[Milkbottlewaffle]

I had planned a trip to Italy at the end of August, starting at Milan and then heading to Verona with my BF.

We have now split up and I can’t afford to take the original trip by myself so have booked a single flight to Verona but still have flights for myself and now exBF to Milan and a single for him from Verona.

It seems that there are no refunds for the tickets and any amendment to the flights has to be for both tickets.

Is there anything that I can do with the Milan tickets other than changing them to a different route (£45) and/or changing the name (£125) - or just having the seats be empty? Seems very wasteful.

I had tickets to a wedding I was no longer attending spoke to them and cost more to change the route than to just forget about them and rebook a nee flight
Vowed to never use them again and about 8 years later still haven’t
