I spent the last few days going through my photos. It was hard. Good memories but…. I got rid of most pictures of my ex. After 27 years it was time. There are still a few but most are gone. I even cut him out of pictures.
One I cut him out of the middle. It was the last time we spent with my dad. We were at a lake for my daughter tenth birthday. I should have been in that picture.
It was very emotional. If you think I shouldn’t have done it, please don’t say anything.
I did make a pile to give my ex. I even found some from when he was a little boy. Lots more of his family, very sweet folks, to give him
I am sorry to hear that you are having to go through all that now, Jo. The only thing I went through, which was by no means on the same leve,l was when my long term boyfriend and I broke up in my late twenties. The first thing I did was to get rid of almost all the photos. It really helped me to do it up front, but there was no family, pets or children involved. So.Very.Hard.😒
Glad we could be here for you in that regard, Jo. I know each situation is unique. I have a divorced friend who after about ten years had to see her ex about a financial matter and I was surprised that she still thought he might apologize. Feelings run so deep and expectations sometimes never seem to go away.

I can not imagine the pain of divorce. If it helps and does not hurt, go for it.
