Why does my ex still carry my pic in his wallet?

A female United States age 41-50, *arah670 writes:

My ex and I have been broke up about 3 months. We broke up because I couldn't choose between my ex before him (6 year relationship) and him. We had magic though. Now it's over and he has someone new almost immediately after we broke up. My question is, why does he still carry my pic in his wallet? I seen it last night and of course it made a thousand questions in my head. I still love him and he won't be with me. He won't be with me but he still carries me everywhere with him. Please tell me what you think about him still carrying my pic in his wallet. It shouldn't matter anymore... but it still does.

Because he still loves you, you were a special part of his life. x

Thank you for your answers. It definately puzzles me and your answers are very helpful. I know that it doesn't mean much and I shouldn't over think on it. And no, we're really not friends. He bought my old car after we broke up (that we spent much time in together) and I seen him lastnight so he could pay me. I still love him so ofcourse I question everything about him. It's crazy. Thank you though.

bytex64 agony auntWhy is your picture still in his walled? He hasn't cleaned out his wallet in the last three months, that's why.

More seriously, all it means is that he doesn't *dislike* you enough to take it out. Even if he doesn't love you, he may still trust you and consider you a friend. That's reason enough to keep someone in my wallet.

AskEve agony aunt6 years is a long time to be with someone and you only broke up 3 months ago. He may still hold a torch for you and hasn't gotten you out of his system yet, even although he has decided to get with someone else, he might just be trying to prove to himself he doesn't need you any more.

It could also be of course that he's just forgotten about it being there. Don't read too much into it though, if he's still interested you'll soon know.

deejuliet agony auntJust because we break up with someone does not necessarily mean we have no feelings towards them anymore. We dont all shut off like faucets. If he cared very deeply for you, he may still care now. If you saw the pic last night, does that mean that the two of you are still on friendly terms? Friends perhaps? Then all the more reason to continue carrying your pic!

The only reason i can think of is that he still loves you weather he admits it or not thats the only reason i can think of. i suggest u ask him point blank why he has it because its the only way to know for sure.
