I was going through boxes of all my stuff from high school and college days. Happy times. Before the EX ...anyways

 

It felt good looking at old pics,party flyers,nic nacs,old ticket stubs , etc.I even found all this incene some jamaican guy gave us at venice beach.

 

Nothing related to the ex. Thats in a seperate box. It was cool. Now if I were to try to reflect of me and my ex memories I would go haywire lol:confused:

 

Im fortunate to stil have all my memories and not lose them when ever I moved

I had to give all my ex-related stuff to my housemate so I can't see it.

 

It's good to find things from before the ex - it reminds you that you were happy before them so surely you will be after them!

I'm curious - did you have any dirty pics of your ex on your computer? Do you still have them or did you delete? Do guys keep those after break-ups?

I don't keep hardcopy of anything these days, but I still have digital photos/videos of my ex (dirty/not dirty). I've copied them all to a flash drive and threw it in the back of the cupboard, deleted everything from the PC so I don't accidentally open the wrong folder and gutwrench. Just better remember to pick it up when I move or I could be in trouble :p

rocket queen and anything goes were sort of "our songs"... in break up most of their other stuff really has meaning to me - So Fine, Yesterdays, 14 Years, Breakdown (even "You Ain't The First" :p) and the official break up songs Estranged, Don't Cry, November Rain rock too. my fave is definitely Estranged, nearly 10 minutes of epicness :)

 

"So nobody ever told ya baby,

how it was gonna be,

and what'll happen to us baby?

Guess we'll have to wait and see..."

 

Often when I'm having a particularly bad (lonely) night I realise I haven't switched on my music (or had a beer) - i switch it on and things aren't quite as bad :p
