These people were a part of your life and if you want to cherish their memories, then you should! If your present sig other doesn't like, just don't flaunt them. My ex wife had several pictures of ex boyfriends, and it didn't really bother me; but she kept them in a special album which I didn't care to see and she kept it her her dresser.
She also reminded me when that green monster came around, that I was the one who got her.

I don't see why not. It's just a picture. I mean, these people, exes, old friends, etc., helped create some very important memories in the history of your life. If your partner has an issue with a simple inanimate photograph, then I'd question his/her ability to remain objective about other actual "live" relationships you have outside your marriage.

Why not? Of course it's ok, if you're comfortable with that.
The only person that I have destroyed every picture of was a guy who ended up stalking me and being abusive. I keep all my other pics, including the pics of the people I'd dated, in a box.

Yes its ok. I have a whole box full of pics and momentos of when i was single. They are my past a part of me. Granted, I dont keep that box on the my coffee table or anything like that, its put away and i cant remember the last time i pulled it out, but just knowing its there, is ok with me.

No. How would you feel if you stumbled across a couple of pictures of your husband with some girl?
This actually happened to me and I made him rip the picture up in front of me.
Call me immature, but at least I know that picture is lying in the dirt somewhere next to **** and piss!

Oh sure - your partner has to love that when you get a chance to take an emtional break during the day, you don't think of them but whip out pictures of other people you used to f*ck. Because you really enjoy thinking about them. Especially people you've had an affair with.
Hey here's an idea - scan them onto your computer and then run a PowerPoint slide show on the big plasma screen during dinner. Fun times, my lady - fun times.
What a kind, thoughtful, caring soul and loving faithful partner a person who does such things must be.

It is really personal preference, i would definantly because no matter what happened it was a significant part of my life, but my husband burned all of the pictures he ever had of his ex, so it just depends on the person

I still have pictures of guys I have dated before because they are like prom pics and homecoming pics and ect. My husband isn't jealous anymore. He was at first but now he knows that the only man I want to be with is him. :)

No. There is no need to...unless you like to take them out and reminisce on the times of old in which case you aren't mature enough for marriage anyway.

i think it is fine. A lot of times old boyfriends were your friends before/after the relationship. They are apart of your past, and they made you YOU.
