Is it ok for my girlfriend to have pictures of her ex boyfriend and his phone number on her cell phone.

Posted

pictures, yes---phone number, hell no.

For me, no to either. You broke up for a reason, no need to keep the pictures.

Something similar helped cave in my relationship. I would say 'no' to both. And I am fair about this - I don't keep ANYTHING of my exes. I don't have any pictures. My parents have some pictures of my ex, but I personally don't. I never look at them (nor would I ever feel the need to). I don't even feel the need to ever show my kids or grandkids who I once dated. They're history and I have chosen to move on.

 

A phone number is a DEFINITE no. I still remember how furious I was when I was sitting behind my last ex one night and he was thumbing through his phonebook on his cell. I see his ex's name. I asked him about it and he said that he'd just "never thought to delete it." Then suddenly it was, "I don't know how to delete it." He eventually did get rid of it, but...obviously you can tell some damage was done.

 

Get this resolved ASAP, OP. Make your feelings clear, i.e., "It makes me uncomfortable that you have those things, and I would appreciate it if you would get rid of them." If it's a dealbreaker and she's not going to bend...time for you to go.

I do have my XW on my phone. My fiance has her Exes as well. We had children with these people so the number stays just in case but we very rarily have to use them. It's mostly to know if they are calling us or not.

 

On her phone she as a song for her XH that is about a A-hole or such. Verry appropriate since he totally is one.

 

On my phone, instead of her photo I have a picture of a broken heart to alert me that its her. I have a few other people who I use a "drama queen" logo for LOL since I use the same ring tone for everybody.

Unless they have children together, I'd say no to both......maybe a prom picture but that's it.....hope I helped;)
