Is it ok to have photos of your ex on your Instagram when you're dating someone new?
I was dating a guy pretty seriously for a year. We ended up having a really messy breakup about 3 weeks back and he soon thereafter unfollowed me on Instagram. I didn't unfollow him. Anyways, a week later, he starts posting photos with a new girl he's dating to his story (short turnaround, I know, he's trash). But his actual feed is still covered with photos of me and him. I literally only opened Instagram to follow him, so I have no photos of my own so I didn't take anything down after the breakup. He's definitely dating the girl so I can't figure out how or why he still has photos of me all over his feed? Is that normal? Isn't it disrespectful to the new girl to be occasionally featured on his story while I take up tons of space on his feed? Should I ask him to take down the photos? I can't figure out why he wouldn't take them down himself? Instagram is such an important thing in his life so I don't get why he's still giving off the impression we're dating to others when it all ended so badly and there's a new girl now. Is this normal Instagram etiquette? This new girl must feel terrible! What do I do?

A lot of people like to keep photo's of happy times they shared with people. No doubt he had good times with you and he still cherishes the memories. He may even be trying to make you feel jealous.

3 weeks? You aren't over him yet because you are still looking at what he's up to. Foolish. You won't be able to move on. Whether he's disrespecting the new girl or not is NOT your business anymore. He is NOT your boyfriend. No doubt she will get him to remove your pics in due course. At the moment he's FAR too busy with the new lovelife to think about playing with his old pics of you.

You do nothing. Maybe it's not important to him that he erase everything. Maybe he simply doesn't care the pics are there. Not your stuff.

He likely just hasn't gotten around to deleting them yet, and it's the new girlfriend's problem to deal with that not yours. As you said he is trash, so no need to worry about the pictures anymore. Just know that she is just sloppy-second to you and that he won't ever find a girl that is better than you.

Perhaps he has forgotten to take them down? I agree with you though in that it could be a little unnerving for the girl he is currently seeing if she were to find out about them. In saying that, I would let him deal with the problem. There is no point really getting involved in this situation as there isn't much good that can come of it from your perspective.

If you are both very young teens, I can see your issue
but it IS only young teens who have this mentality
deleting a photo doesnt eradicate history
he is probably too busy moving on and living life to be thinking about delting old photos
