Well my ex and i were together for 7 months and i recently found out he still has a spot where he stores all of the letters and childhood pictures of me. i found out because his mom only knows im currently dating right now but why does he still have them he broke up with me? i also kept a couple of things but i got rid of most of it to help me move on, but i was just wondering why he still has them? and i tried bringing us back but he didnt soo any ideas?

So_Very_Confused agony auntSweetie,

I'm 52 years old.

my first boyfriend was when I was 15 1/2 (till nearly 18 so a long time)... I still have pictures of him and me together.. and his sisters and family...from when we were teens...

it's part of my history and brings back memories of who I am and how I got to where I am...

don't think too much about it...some folks just like to have these memories...

Some people hoard things and some don't. It's just the different ways people behave. I'm always chucking stuff out and I don't have a single thing from any past relationship. I think it's a positive thing that he has these things, as looking at them must only be giving him a happy memory of the past. But I don't think it means he wants you back.
