with pictures.

So I was married once before. I was with the guy mostly through college and for a bit after. In my nesting, I've started going through boxes and found a bunch of pictures from my past including my old wedding album. It seems wierd to hold on to them  because I'm divorced now, but there's lots of pictures of people that came to the wedding that are deceased now, or are friends etc. I've thrown out the ones of just him, or ones of us holding hands etc, but wwyd with the rest? I can't just throw away the photo memories of many years, but it's my ex ...

    I have some pictures of old boyfriends that I can't let go of.  not because I have any feelings about them whatsoever, but because I feel like it's sort of like erasing history.  At the same time though, I found a picture of DH with his family and ex-fiancee and I really really wanted it out of the house.  So I can see why it might be important to your DH to get rid of them.  But I can also see why you want to keep them.  

    I guess I would keep it, and keep it in a box in the top of the closet and not make a big deal about it.  If your DH asks you to get rid of them though, then have a discussion about it and make a decision together.

    I have a couple of pictures of ex-boyfriends because other people are in them. DH doesn't love them but he doesn't have a huge problem with them either. I say keep them.

    I would keep just a couple in a safe place somewhere. I know that if my DH had any of ex's I would be peeved  but hey that's different :) LOL!

    ditto this.  Dh didn't have any problem throwing out his wedding pics from his first wife but I'm sure if he had said there were some pics that he wanted to keep because of who else was in them I wouldn't have had a problem with it.
