I asked him and he said that he doesn't have any feeling for her but just friend. I'm not happy about this!! Should I hang on or just walk away?

How long have they been broken up exactly, what was their relationship like? What caused them to break up? Could that reason be fixed? Does he talk about her a lot? Does he ever choose her over you? How long was he single before he got with you? How many clothes of hers does he keep?
I don't think a phone call a month and him having some of her clothes really warrants you "walking away" but then again your other option to "hang on" kind of indicates that you are waiting for him to be ready to be in a relationship with you? I don't know enough details about this situation but I don't think a phone call a month is really a big deal. I guess you could ask him to get rid of his ex's clothes as you feel it inappropriate to keep them. If he's happy to get rid of them, I think that would be a good indication that she is just a friend. If he wants to hold on to them, it could show that perhaps she is a little more.
