Keeping pix up of your ex wife on facebook/myspace

[MissGoldenLips]

So I'm interested in this guy who was married for 2 yrs, and his divorce will be final in March, so he says. He has pictures on his facebook and myspace of him and his ex wife from 5 years ago, probably about 5 pix on each site. Is it b/c he's too lazy to take them down? Is it b/c he's still in love with her? Or what? His ex wife was a beautiful model so I wonder if he keeps them up to brag about who his ex wife was? He has a pic of them both in their bathingsuits --her a string bikini--celebrating his bday 5 years ago. Is this weird or normal male behavior?

im in a relationship and im separated from my husband... i still have pics on my myspace [they are private so only i can view them] but its only because i dont want to forget the past memories... by no means does that mean i want my husband back... does your boyfriend have pics of you and him on his myspace/facebook?

The only instances in which I've seen people delete photos of their exes is if the split wasn't amicable, or it was particularly painful.
His divorce isn't even final yet - give it some time. And if they're that old, maybe he's forgotten about them. Maybe some of them are memories he wants to hang onto.
If he starts seeing another woman, maybe he will think about taking them down, but right now there really isn't reason to.

It was a meaningful part of his life. Just because he's moved on doesn't mean he can't cherish the good times. Unless it's obvious that he's still not over her, you're just working yourself up for no reason.

Past memories are important and you can't just wipe them away. To an outsider it may seem strange to havepics of an ex but it is your past life and what makes you who you are. I think (within reason) its normal

I guess it just depends on how strong his past memories with her are. When I got divorced EVERYTHING that reminded me of him was thrown out or put away for my kids to have when they are older. I was also told any pics he had of us on his computer, he has placed on a disc to give to my kids also.
I just had a very difficult relationship with him so it was time that it was over and I also dont care for those memories to be gone either.
In your case, it seems like he prob would like to have those memories with him. She was a major part of his life for a while. Its hard to just let that go...
