writes: Is it wrong of me to be irritated when my ex wants to show me pics his ex took of him while they were on vacations together. He has them downloaded on his computer and will show them to me talking about the place they were at. He even uses one of them as his contact photo saying its his favorite pic of himself. He compares these pics to places we have gone. I don't care that he has them I just think he should keep those memories to himself.

No it's not wrong. I would be irritated too. I'm with you now, I don't want to hear about your ex's. Let him know you don't really care to hear about ex's, you realize they exist but don't want them in your face or places you have been to compared to them. In general it's a no no to bring up ex's so you aren't in the wrong here at all and shouldn't feel awkward or bad to bring it up with him. Just say it sweetly, don't nag or start an argument.

Well, this certainly qualifies as "insensitive"....
Is it typical of his behaviour toward you? If "yes," then consider if it is giving you a preview of the future. Most guys are content to let the ex- go....and NOT wave her (the ex-) in the face of "the current".....
Good luck...

Well he is obviously your ex for a reason now as well. If it bothers you maybe you are not over him yet, and if that is the case then I suggest you spend some time apart, if you are unwilling to do that then I suggest you just be honest with him and explain that you are not comfortable with this.
