Does anyone still have pictures of their exs
Went on my laptop for the first time in a couple of months found pictures of my ex I havent deleted them yet
Just dont know what to do with them is it bad that I still have them or should I just delete them right away

This was my first serious relationship and I've realised a break up is so hard and I think it's going to take me a while before I'm able to remove these things from my life.
If you don't feel comfortable deleting them yet then that's absolutely fine, there's no rush.
hugs *hug*
Ive had a couple of break ups before I dont know why but this one im taking it bad think it was cause I really loved her and I wanted to settle down with her I fell for her pretty bad
There are days were I feel as if im over her then there are days im up and down I feel great an hour or two im feeling down
I dont think im ready to delete them but I dont know if keeping them are going to help me get over her
Maybe if you don't feel ready to delete them, then keep them, but try not to look at them? I try not to look at the pictures because when I do, it just makes me feel worse.
The other day, Someone recommended the 'ask a question' service to me. You can ask any question, talk about how you're feeling about the break up, and within 3 working days you get a reply. Here's the link if you want to give it a go. The question can be as long as you want it to be.
When I broke up with both of my ex's my first instinct was to delete them from my life.
I deleted pictures, their numbers, any songs which reminded me of them. I also boxed everything they both gave me and put it away. It was hard and I cried whilst doing it, but I then didn't have reminders lying all over my bedroom.
*Out of sight, out of mind.*:)
That's a very brave step to take Farawayorigin,
I know how difficult it is getting rid of pictures of someone whom you were in a close relationship to, how was it when you had deleted the photo's? Remember were always here for you if you need a chat Do keep us updated and let us know how you're doing
Hope I could help, all the best x
