My girlfriend (f28) is pissed I (m34) wouldn’t show her my ex’s n*des before deleting them.

A man shared his frustration after his girlfriend became upset with him for deleting old nude pictures of an ex-girlfriend without showing them to her. While reminiscing with his girlfriend over an old iPod, they stumbled upon the pictures, and he immediately deleted them, thinking it was the best move.

However, his girlfriend accused him of hiding things and manipulation, and the situation escalated with her crying and demanding to see the pictures. The man feels confused and frustrated by her reaction and eventually kicked her out of his apartment, questioning why she would be so insistent on seeing them.

‘ My girlfriend (f28) is pissed I (m34) wouldn’t show her my ex’s nudes before deleting them and is now questioning our relationship, I’m thinking about just letting it end should I? ‘

Well to cut straight to the point My current girlfriend is pissed at me because I deleted old nudes from an ex-girlfriend (from 14 years ago) without letting her see them. While cleaning out my closet I recently found my old iPod touch, this things from 2010 and I absolutely loved it.

stumbling upon it after all these years is like finding a time capsule so we excitedly hooked it up to see what 2010-2013 me was up to. while having a good time laughing at the tall tees, mall bought and extremely fake ass “bling” (Oh God help me 🤢🤮)

and fitted caps I wore back then while going through the pictures together, We stumbled across some b**t nakeds from an old relationship I forgot were on there. trying not to make a big deal of it I said “oh s**t” and turned the iPod away from her and deleted the pictures, which I thought she would understand.

was I wrong, first she playfully asked to see them, I told her no, She knows that’s fucked up and things quickly went very south from there. she started accusing me of hiding things, saying she Just wants to see what she looks like and that it’s no big deal and eventually started crying.

I told her The pictures are from 14 f**king years ago and If I showed my ex’s nudes to her what’s to stop her from thinking I wouldn’t show HER nudes to someone else If they bitched and moaned enough? Now she accuses me of calling her a b**ch, belittling her and already thinking of the next woman.

Things are seriously snowballing and I’ve never seen this weirdly jealous and nosy side of her before (we’ve been together for about 6 months But been on again off again friends with benefits for about 2 years) she knows I do not have patience for silly childish s**t like this so I kicked her out of my apartment.

She calls me an a**hole and says she’s going to have to think about our relationship, I told her if she wants to break up over some nonsense like this then We shouldn’t have got together in the first place.

I know I was right for not showing her the pictures and the tears was a manipulation tactic, but I’m absolutely stumped as too why she would try so hard to see them and figured maybe This sub could provide some insight into this utter madness.

Here’s what people had to say to OP:

AuntyVenom −  Naw, she’s totally in the wrong. New gf doesn’t get to see old gf’s nudes — that’s a violation of your old gf’s privacy, and only because your new gf wants to compare herself. So it’s only been 6 short months, and she’s showing her hand.

botabought −  You’d think she’d have more respect for you for deleting the nudes and not sharing them.

[Reddit User] −  Wtf !!!! That’s not normal, you did the right thing. Sounds to me your gf has a serious green eyed monster and most likely wanted to compare the girl to her if that’s the type of person she is. But those photos were sent to you with trust. You didn’t belittle her you put boundaries in and that says more about you than her. In my opinion you did the right thing

Emergency_Tea6847 −  You did the right thing by getting rid of them. It shows the maturity in you, she wanting to see them shows the immaturity in her. She should have been grateful and realized she has a man with integrity. Instead she got pissed.

Imagine if you had pics of her and she found out you shared them with your future (hopefully) girlfriend, she’d be blowing up your phone or worse. I respect you and you did the right thing.

Ebbie45 −  I think you did the right thing kicking her out. This is way too much to be dealing with at only 6 months, let alone at all. Not only is the excessive jealousy an issue, but also the fact that she was demanding access to intimate images of another person without their consent. That’s bizarre and violating. She doesn’t sound like she’s ready to be in a relationship right now.

The_BodyGuard_ −  Let her do what she’s going to do and don’t stop her. You absolutely did the right thing. I’m not a fan of women sharing nudes with men in the first place (too much risk) but you did the right thing by protecting your exes’ privacy and deleting them.

Your current gf had NO right to see them or demand to see them or even be upset with you. If she wants to break up let her but I wouldn’t entertain this nonsense. There’s no middle ground here and you’re not wrong.

AlxDahGrate −  What the f**k. That is absolutely weirdo behavior. D**p this chick, she’s absolutely crazy.

No-Character2194 −  i dont think id ever want to see my exs nudes, sure ive asked to see a picture of her, never brought it up again. she was a beautiful girl, their past story was unfortunate, done and dusted loll. nudes tho? thats like, rlly fkn weird and scary.

for her to even ask to see them is really disturbing and then crying to guilt you is worse. putting your insecurities over someone elses right to privacy and feelings is gross and will just get worse. i dont think she realizes how weird that sounds and IS. please show her these comments 😭😭 and d**p her thats wild

Morva182 −  You’re dodging a bullet.

l3ex_G −  She’s too immature for you. You did the right thing and a confident and mature person would see it as a green flag that you’re not sharing intimate pics. The fact you are deleting them is also a great thing. That’s great you respect your past partners. Don’t fall for the temper tantrum. I hope you get the ick and really look at who you are dating.
