Yeah, did you say he has aspergers? At any rate socially clueless. He will have no idea there is anything wrong with this until you tell him, and yes you have to wait until an appropriate moment to tell him. But one of the downsides of living with someone with really poor social skill. And I know this sort of thing is inconsistent. Not poor 100% of time.
Oh, wow. This place looks great. Oh, I feel like a witch in a magic shop.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

ADD. And he's actually fairly socially clueful, which is why I'm so very WHAT THE FUCK.

Ah. Yeah not the same thing. Sorry, I was hoping I could help by attributing to something clinical.

Nah, it's cool. I wish I could attribute it to cluelessness, too.
(Also, I am not going to mix booze and pills. Though it's appealing.)

Our wings are not tired.
I have memorabilia from DH#1 and DH#2. Both my prior wedding dresses, pictures and stuff. It isn't so much that I keep reminders of the men, but it was a part of my life. Not different from my elementary school report cards and high school year books.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I have old pictures. I don't have them displayed, but I have them. It's my past.
I get that it's awkward to see them and I don't think I'd go through any of my pics with someone new. But I'd put them away, not throw them out.
Even with that though, yes, I can see where it would be hard for me to see pictures of an ex. Actually it was when it happened. But the past happened, so...

I just didn't expect a box full of photo albums. I knew he had his wedding album, but not 6 albums.

Um. What I'm having a hard time with, mostly, is the naked pictures of his ex-wife. I understand the past happened and that they got naked together. I understand that people keep pictures of their past. But, seriously? I'm not an unreasonable person, but I don't think seeing naked pictures of one's current boyfriend's ex-wife is the same thing as seeing pictures of them playing with the dogs.
I don't want to be a shrew and demand he get rid of all traces of his past, but I don't think wanting him to not have naked pictures of his ex-wife is unreasonable.

Oh, no. The nakeds need to go.

Okay. I didn't think that was unreasonable. Because, naughty pictures of my exes? Deleted. Not that I don't think of them fondly, because I do. Well, some of them. But I figure the explicit pictures go away when the relationship does.
