“This is very weird, and I don’t know what to make of it,” his girlfriend added.
Now, for him, that comment was the tipping point. So, he actually decided to just ask her to leave.
And in the wake of their argument, he is now trying to process everything that happened. According to him, his laptop is pretty old, and he basically used it as an archive over the years. That’s why his girlfriend stumbled upon such old pictures– because his computer contained folders with every photo he took within the last eight to 10 years.
The folders included everything from images with his family to photos he took on trips with his ex-girlfriends.
“And I don’t visit these folders unless maybe once in a blue moon to find an old memory,” he explained.
Since his archive seemed to really upset his girlfriend, though, he is now wondering if it was wrong to hold onto all of the pictures from his past relationships. But, at the same time, he also just feels like he cannot really trust his girlfriend anymore.
“This is not the first time we are facing an issue because of her trust issues, and I feel like maybe this is not going to be the end of her curiosity, either,” he vented.
So now, he really is not sure whether he should give his girlfriend another chance or just end their relationship.
Was it right that his girlfriend used her past trauma as an excuse to snoop? Is it wrong for people to keep photos from past relationships or not? Does he have a right to feel upset about what his girlfriend did? How would you handle this situation?
