Just hope that your ex isn't a mean person that would expose them... My baby's daddy had a DVD souvenir full of sex pics and sex videos of his ex before me. That never sat right with me when we were together. Why was he hanging on to it! Did he watch it? If so, that is pathetic. I am sure he still has it too. We never did anything like that together. He never asked. I guess I was NOT that special. But as for non-sexual digital pictures, I deleted from my computer any that weren't really relevant. For instance, during our getting to know one another phase, we exchanged childhood photos and past photos in the story sharing phase. What do I need to hang on to a picture of him as a kid for? I only kept pictures of him and I from our relationship period, in my scrap book - for our child (so she can have the illusion that he once loved her mummy LOL) if she wants them later in her life. Any photos of just him alone, without me or someone I know, I deleted. He is also a 'musician' so he had also given me his homemade rock videos LOL Those got deleted too. He never (and yes I mean NEVER) once gave me any kind of present or gift, so there were no mementos to toss.

Rule of thumb........keep your face out of the pictures and no videos unless YOU get to keep them! LOL! And always be nice after the breakup, don't want him/her using them as a weapon. Ugh. Oh boy!!

Sadly, I didn't and after a relationship with a deployed soldier, I probably have my own fan club in the Middle East. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted! :) Oh I probably should have a digital policy for sure!

I don't care if he still has pictures and stuff I sent him, but I am sad for him if he does. I figured it was just good electronic housekeeping - I did the same with so much stuff after the split. Lingerie that he liked got dumped, his favorite liquor, dumped, etc etc. I guess once the love left it was easy to just remove him from that part of my life, where there was passion and lust still. I admit that there is a really hot picture a man I was dating sent me that I still have on my phone because I can't bear to get rid of it! But the ex? No freaking way!
