Recently my boyfriend clean out his place & moved a lot of stuff out. He took down stuff from high school said he was time to get rid of that stuff. Though he just graduated from Texas A&M and is way past high school he still has a photo of him and his ex-girlfriend from high school prom up. It bothers me some what and I dont know if I should tell him it bothers me or if I am overreacting...HELP!

The keys to ANY relationship are love, communication and honesty. Tell him he needs to get over her because it's "time to get rid of that stuff." He may not like it at first, but after awhile, I think he'll understand... Hope so, anyway...

mhm =\ yeh i know what`s it like to think your bf still having feelings for his ex.. i`ve been there.. and all i can is NO you are not over-reacting. You have the right to wonder.. but yeah In my opinion, you should talk to him. maybe that picture`s up 'cause they were close friends before they were together and he still see her as a close friend. or maybe prom night was one of those memories he had from high school. after all it`s kinda big.. just bring it up casually, don`t get all crazy on him, though.. Just tell him I understand it`s an ex girlfriend of yours & it`s over but i`mj ust wondering why you have that picture? Lol hope it gets worked out! (=

That is definitely weird and it would bother me, too! Maybe give him a framed picture of you & him and ask him to put it up in the old prom photo's place? If it bothers you, you should say something.

Oh, for heavens sakes......stop being so insecure!!! You are the one with the problem! My son graduated from Texas A & M (yes, really!) and I remember he had lots of photos of him with girls here and there. He had his A&M girlfriend (now his wife) and she was secure enough that it was not important to her. Photos are just part of someone's life. Let it go, sweetie and stop being so clingy and insecure.......remember, he is an Aggie!

I think you should tell him you may understand the fact that he still has feelings for his ex, he is with you now. So let him no that you don't feel comtable around the picture, so get him to hide the pictures, so the both of you would be happy

Just let it be you have him now and thats what really matters.It is really not that big of a deal unless he still talks to her and sees her.You shouldnt bring it up cause its not worth it just be your self and have fun and its his prom picture so its just a memory of a time of his like.Take care its no big deal

Tell him your not a replacement.Tell him this relation is about 2 people you and him.He needs to grow up and let go.

you should be overeacting course!! if it was just his friend thats different but its his ex..from his point of view..she may have been his first love..but then again you shouldnt be second best to him..you should confide in him..and tell him to put the past where it belongs..
