Phone screensaver

[Softskinrocks]

I realise it might sound trivial but past relationships may have skewed my view of normal.

Boyfriend of 1.5 years still has a photo of his ex wife and kids as his phone screensaver. In a conversations about healthy boundaries we had a couple of months ago, I said thought it was a bit inappropriate and made me feel weird. He still has it. Just wondering if I’m being dramatic!

men are idiots and insensitive.. he has probably had that screen saver photo for years and years and until you mentioned it he maybe didn't even give it a second thought.

however, now you have raised it with him, it does seem odd that he's not now changed it? does he see his children? does he have a better photo he can used or is this the only photo he has

@thursdaymurderclub That’s exactly what I think happened. If there was anything about my behaviour that made him feel uncomfortable, I would address it or tell him that’s how things are and he can move on if he wants to. But he just nods, understands and then ignores the things I’ve raised. So I think this is it.

He’s the resident parent and it was a mutual split but he would have carried on for the children if she hadn’t started the conversation.
