if ur boyfriend of 3 months lost his ex gf who died about 6 months ago and he was with her for almost 3 years and loved her dearly & still kept pictures of her in his wallet and stuff, would this make you mad or would u be okay with it?

i would be more concerned that he got with you only three months after his gf of 3 years died. i think thats a little quick. and if its only been 6 months i think its normal for him to not want to get rid of her pictures. i'm sure he thinks that would be mean to not carry around her pics. what does it matter anyway? i dont think he's going to dump you for her. not like he can get back with her. i say just bang him till he realises that hes not over her. you can at least get some for the next couple months.

Do everything you can to be okay with it. Avoid the topic if you can't accept it. Don't push him, don't expect him to forget her, don't expect to replace her. He'll put things in order as he's ready. A man I loved very much died about three years ago. It was at least a year before I put away the pictures. And, I still have one out. I also have a tattoo in remembrence of him. The loss of him had a deep impact on me. I've moved on with dating & love & it hasn't stopped me from caring for other people, but if someone tried to tell me to forget about him, I would resent them for the brief time before I walked away.

I'd be fine with it. I'd probably continue to keep pictures of an ex who passed away myself, particularly if it wasn't too long ago that it happened. I'd still be in mourning after 6 months. I'm actually surprised he started dating again after only 3 months. That seems an awfully short period of time to me.

I would be okay with it. I mean you can't really be jealous or mad over someone who passed away. He probably still has love for her considering she didn't wrong him to end their relationship, she passed away!! You should support him rather than make it an issue, if you lost someone u were with for a long time u would likely do the same thing.
I really hope you can understand his situation.
Good luck

I'd be ok with it. If they were together for three years he probably loved her. I'm sure he still has an emotional attachment to her and death makes us realize how important a person is to us. Be respectful of his need to mourn. I don't mean to sound morbid, but she's not coming back so don't worry about it.

It is normal to feel upset but really she is dead and he misses her. The best thing to do is be understanding and caring and do not make him feel like he has to choose by getting rid of her pics. she is a memory and desirves to stay that way. I feel sad for him I hope I never have that happen. Just be there for him and dont let you insecurity make him not like you. How you handle this could make or break your relationship with him. Hang in there.

It takes more than 6 months to get over the loss of a 3 year partner. Especially when it was a death. Your relationship with him is very new still, give it a lot more time.

I wouldn't be mad at all. 6 months isn't a very long time to get over something like that, 3 years is a long time, I'm surprised he's dating already.

I would not mind if was in a drawer somewhere but in the wallet it's strange.
I would tell him I think he needs more time to grieve & I will be here for you when you are ready to move on.
