  • That sounds like a painful situation for you to be in. I think he did not get rid of the things but only hid them because people don't want to erase the past relationships from their lives. If someone was once intimate and close with them, they don't want to let go of momentos or memories forever. I know this can cause jealousy and other problems in a current relationship, especially in one with a complex background like yours, but I'm not sure what you should do with this information besides accept that, even if it makes you unhappy, he wants to sometimes remember caring about another person. If it makes you uncomfortable because you're worried they will get back together again, you'd be better off having a non-confrontational discussion with him about how you understand why he would keep things to remember but that you want to make sure YOUR relationship goals and promises are clear. Good luck.
