my ex still has my picture


Question Posted Monday July 24 2006, 9:50 pm


Hello. I am a 16 year old girl. So, ok there was this guy that I dated for a month. Our last date was on a Sunday & I broke up with him that Thursday. On our date, he barley put his arm around me & didn’t even kiss me. Usually on our dates we do nothing but that. Then at school that week he was acting kind of funny. He didn’t call me at all that week. On Thursday at school he didn’t even hug me before he left for practice. That night I called him & said that I think it would be better if we were just friends and he agreed. I could tell that he really did think it was the right thing. We still both really did want to be friends. But after we broke up, he barley talked to me or didn’t even talk to me at all. I tried everything. I tried talking to him about it, calling him, emailing him, everything. He didn’t seem to want anything to do with me, so after about a month of trying to talk to him I gave up and decided that he would talk to me when he wanted to. Well about a couple of months after we broke up I saw that he still had a picture of me in his wallet. *the only thing he really has in his wallet are my picture & money* Then his friend told me that he still had my picture in a frame on his desk. I could understand why he still had my pictures if we were still friends, but we weren’t. Can you please help me understand why he still has my pictures?

Well in short, he obviously still has your pictures because he still cares about you, and hasn't had complete closure. It's hard to say exactly what he is thinking because I am not him, but my educated guess would be that your ex still liked you when y'all agreed to break up. Maybe he just didn't want to say exactly how he was feeling because he was scared. A lot of times people agree to things they don't really want because they want to please the other person. That's maybe what he was doing. Also, the reason he probably did not talk to you right after y'all broke up was probably because he was confused and needed time himself, but was also trying to give you the space he thought you wanted. I think you could try if you wanted--to write him an email or IM or text or whatever..and casually say "hey since it's summer we should hang out before school starts back up..it would be great to hear from you again!" Something like that will allow him to see you kind of want to see what's up, but you are still being casual. Either way, I am sure everything will turn out how it's suppose to. :)
