Keeping ex's photo...
Posted : 28 Oct, 2010 05:23 AM

Hello brothers,



I have a question for you all and every idea /response will be highly appreciated.



1.Are you a guy who would keep your ex's wife or girlfriend's photo even the relationship is over?Why?

2.Is it ok if a lady you're presently dating ask you why?

3.Would you regard it as being confrontational?



Keeping a family pics like your ex and the kids is undertandable but solo photos and photo of you both is a two different thing.



Most of us ladies get rid of past relationship photos so I wanna know what's the difference ..Hope to hear from you guys..



Lis..

There's only one girlfriend I completely expunged from my Facebook photo record. It's not worth it to remove the others. As far as actual physical pictures go, I don't remember actually ever getting any other than from a high school girlfriend. Who even knows where those are these days?

They're part of my story and a part of my past. I haven't talked to most of them since we broke up, but we had some fun times together, we were good friends, and I don't see any reason to try and forget them completely. If I constantly looked back at the pictures, had framed ones in my apartment, or dwelled on our relationship, it might be a problem, but I don't. If a new girlfriend wanted me to go through and untag all the pictures of me and ex girlfriends years back, I'd be forced to question why she was so insecure about our relationship. It's not like I care if she's still tagged in pictures with her ex boyfriends.

1. No. I don't see a need to hold onto them.



2. Yes. I would have no problem with that. Personally I wouldn't consider her to be insecure because of it.



3. Not at all.

Please don't hear me saying he's inherently innocent. He very well may be still hung up on his past relationships. Still having pictures somewhere is just not proof in and of itself. If he's looking at them, has them out around the house, etc., then there might be a problem. Just don't let your insecurities ruin something good you've got going.

I feel that it would be an unnecessary distraction as well as being very disrespectful to the current person.
