My mother still has my marriage photos hanging up and I've been divorced for 18months, what can I do to make her see I don't feel comfortable with this?

A female South Africa age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hi

My ex-husband and I separated 2 years ago. We have been divorced for over 18 months. I have a new boyfriend - we have been together about 6 months and things are very serious.

But:

My mother still keeps photos of my wedding and ex-husband up in her flat. She doesn't think it's inappropriate. She says it is part of her past, like having a picture of me as a baby on the wall.

How do I argue against this? I know it's inappropriate, but I actually don't know why? What's going to make her see things differently?

To add to it, she also has a photo of myself and my new boyfried on the wall!

Thanks for any suggestions on how to approach this.
