Yesterday my wife set down to divide family pictures up, as you can imagine this was very emotional.<P>She cried I cried and it was all very difficult. I did hold her for a bit and she did not resist, but nothing has changed she is still dead set on divorce.<P>OH WELL I WILL KEEP TRYING!<BR>

Omaha,<BR>I hurt for you my friend. We too had the unhappy task of dividing up pictures, but it wasn't quite the same as what you did. My STBEX took all of the photos with her, then gave me back a bag full of the ones she thought I might want. I have no idea what she did with all of our engagement and wedding pictures, but I'm glad that I don't have them to dwell over. Just thinking how much $ is rapped up in those professional pics makes me sick. That, and the fact that we looked really happy in them since that was such a great time in our lives. <P>Oh the process of healing!!!!

Well, I didn't have to give my x any of the family pictures but have pulled out a few for him over the last few days because I am moving on Friday and know that is the right thing to do. Although I have hundreds of pictures, even giving away a few was extremely difficult. I love them all and want them all. I know that is so selfish so I do keep pulling out more but I hate having to do this. It is at these times you wonder what the hell went wrong and why did this have to happen. I have been crying quite a bit lately with this move, etc. and my x has actually hugged me a few times too while I cried. It was comforting but also so sad. Such a loss of a dream. <P>Hang in There.<P><BR><p>[This message has been edited by 711 (edited September 25, 2000).]

Though it sounds painful, at least you received some of the photos. I have none! My ex hit was suppose to give me 1/2 of them or get duplicates made of all - I have to this date (it will be a year on Fri) received none - none of the wedding pictures, kids as they were growing, even old ones of my friends and family - I have asked but never receive - so though it was not a fun task, be thankful you were able to keep some memories with you. Every day I think about no receiving them I get angry <P>DA
