writes:Hello everyone,I've been broken up with my ex for a little over a month now, and while I have maintained NC with her, save when she has talked to me a couple of times, I find myself constantly checking her Facebook page. I want to see who is writing on her wall, what she is up to, etc. Also, there are a number of pictures (that we have both added) of us that I find myself gazing at far too often. I am tempted to take down the pictures that I have put up of us, and maybe even remove our Facebook "friendship." However, while I still care deeply for her, the breakup was not angry or violent or anything, and I know that she wants to remain friends. I have never deleted a slew of pictures on Facebook before, and/or "cancelled" a friendship on it. I know it sounds like of silly, but at least for my 20 something generation, I could see such actions as being a pretty large snub. That said, should I delete the pictures for my own well-being, or perhaps just try to have better will-power and avoid looking at them (but leave them online)? Thanks for any suggestions that you may have.

Otherwise you're just going to keep looking at them and you will just go around in circles not able to move on.Those photos are from the past when you were together... Which you aren't anymore.Ask yourself this...If you meet another girl down the track, would you like her to have photos on her facebook of her and her ex boyfriend? I bet I know the answer.Those photos are just extra baggage that will weigh you down. Be strong and let go.Live for the moment.

 I think that if you deleted her, you would still be curious and would want to check her page. Just leave it be.
