When did you finally get rid of your old photos/letters/etc from your ex-boyfriends?
I have the world's worst memory so I keep a lot of things.. they're all stored in a little box and it's not like I take them out and look at them every day. But since I'm moving in with FH now I feel like it's weird to bring them all with me.
Toss them or keep them?
Moving Day in 2 days!!
ETA: Also, when you make a post like this it's probably not a good idea to accidentally leave it up on the computer screen when FH goes to use the computer.
Luckily he just laughed. I'm a moron.

I think I tossed everything I had from ex boyfriends as soon as we broke up. No reason to keep things like that after relationships are over, at least that's what I think.

I tossed all mine when I met FH. The funny thing is before I met him I couldn't throw them out even when I got married to my xh I kept all the pics of my xb. Thats just one of the zillion reasons i know FH IS my soul mate

Tossed it all! I used to keep a shoebox of little things from all my ex's like movie tickets, letters, cards, etc but I tossed it all after dating FH. None of the stuff was really worth keeping honestly. I still have a shoebox of his stuff from the beginning of our relationship!

I say do whatever you like.. I'm really big on not throwing out pictures because those are memories and people, places, and things that led me to where I am now. Love letters, cards, etc. those I personally would toss but if it's something that you want to be able to look back on just to remember that time.. then keep it

I threw out most of the stuff when me and my FH got serious. I threw out any remaining stuff when I was about to move in with FH

If their is something really unique or special keep it, but otherwise toss them. Although my mom has an ex file of old pics and notes from exes from when she was young, and we had a fun and unusual bonding night going through them when I was an obnoxious teenager.

Re: At what point do you get rid of...
I actually kind of have an interesting story of that. I had been making a scrapbook for my last ex over just about every keepsake I had from since we first started being friends through our relationship. After we broke up I gave it to him and said it was too painful to keep so he could have it. So I didn't have anything when it came time to move in with FH, and I'm pretty sure by now he's probably thrown it away.

I tossed all cards and love letters a long time ago but I do have a few pictures- Fh is ok with the pictures...they are mostly from friends weddings etc.
