Wedding albums

What does everyone do with their wedding albums once separated. Separated since may My ex told me earlier he took them from the house and burnt them all. I'm so upset as my toddler at the time was in most of the photos and friends and family. Am I being unreasonable to feel this annoyed and upset about this.

I think I would like to keep mine, regardless of how things have worked out it's still an important day in history and has pictures of people no longer with us. I would be very upset if I found out they had been destroyed - do you think he is bluffing?

I didn't give a stuff that my ExW kept them, why would I want a reminder of being married to her!!

I don’t even speak to my ex but kept all my wedding photos so that my kids know when they are older that we loved each other once

My ex was a vile and abusive narcissist. Just before I left him I tore in half the photos in our wedding album and put it back on the shelf for him to find. He has to this day never said anything but I don't for one second regret doing it!

I kept the official album. My mum and dad are in the photos and they have since passed away. His family are also in them and I continue to be very fond of his mum and sister. He can go to hell in a handcart, the sneaky lying fucker!

I gave them to him when I was dumping them on the pavement outside his girlfriends house (he’d moved there) along with the rest of his belongings. I told him I’d resisted the urge to piss on them first. If they’d been left in my possession they’d have been destroyed so I only felt it was fair he had the opportunity to have them, especially as his late dad and grandad were in them. You are right to feel annoyed- if he didn’t want the photos he should have offered them to you. Regardless of what happened it’s wrong to do what he did.

If the wedding wasn't too long ago most of you friends and family will have photos on their phone op so there should be some of your toddler

I chucked mine into a skip. We were only married 2 and a half years when he had an affair and moved 5000 miles away from our DD, who was only 18 months at the time. I didn't want it, he told me I should keep it for her. I offered them to him to keep, he didn't want them. So they went. I can't imagine sitting down with DD and showing her that day knowing what then happened. And that's not to say I won't tell her about it, of course I will when she asks, but I saw no need to keep them.
