Should I get rid of the pictures.?

Question

I'm a photographer and naturally I have tons of pictures. Most of my relationships aren't very well photographed (only the serious ones get pictures taken) and recently I've been through a horrible break up and still have tons of pictures of my ex EVERY WHERE. I want to know if I should get rid of the pictures or keep them?

Answer 1

If you want to forget him.... yeah..... if you think, despite all that hapened that they were good moments and that you learned with them, don't hang them on the wall or something, but keep them. You never now what future brings and one day you might wanna look at them and laugh. You should never ignore your passed, is it good, or is it bad, you always should look back and take good things out of that.

Answer 2

I bounced over to this one after I answered your last one about rude people. I think you were misunderstood here...people may have mis-read this question as "I'm so pretty, so everyone tell me so," when you were probably just asking an honest question and not fishing for compliments. Sorry you got flamed. I actually think you should get rid of the picture of you in the pink top with the pursed lips and use the one in the pink top with you smiling at the camera instead (you've got a great smile). Hope that helps!

Horrible break up = posting pictures on the internet. Revenge is sweet and best servered over a cold broadband connection. Dont forget to charge a buck or two to see the pics so that your time spent with her was not a total loss.

Answer 4

I was engaged to this girl, like five years ago, and went through the same thoughts. I decided to get rid of the pictures, and felt lot better afterwards, like I could have a clean start.

Answer 5

no keep them. I dated a photogrpher- we were together for a long time. We never had professional pics- but lots of regular ones. I'll never get rid of them- I don't look at them very often because I know they're there. So when I miss him I can look at the pics. Besides what happens if you get back together?

Answer 6

Keep them... Just put them away for now..... It's a part of your life and someday down the road when it doesn't hurt any more you can always look back at your life and have memories.... believe me, I have never thrown any pictures away because at one time I lost some and they can't be replaced and it hurts cuz that was my life and now it's gone.....It really is fun to look back, if you can....

Answer 7

keep them in a safe place as an archive, you know, maybe the relation will come back again, maybe you will miss the old days, something could happen, if you get rid of them you could feel sorry later, so, keep them in a place like on the top of a high cupboard or something, who knows, you might need them

Answer 8

i got rid of mine, because i dont want to be reminded of someone who hurt me so bad that and i believed he cared. it's not good to hold on to the past, but to get prepared for the future. things work out, better then before, and no one needs reminds, keeping a few is ok, but not out for show, like put away just for memories when ur way older and it doesnt bother u anymore to look at them.

Answer 9

If it was a bad break up then get rid of them, no need to keep seeing them all around when you don't want to be reminded of her.

Answer 10

Never never get rid of the pictures. Save them in a box in storage if u must but keep them because you can never replace them. Now if any of them are of the personal nature, please send them to me.
