Does my girlfriend still have feelings for her previous relationships?

This is my first post, so please go easy on me! I’m not great with tech, so I might be overthinking things. I’m a 25-year-old guy and she’s a 21-year-old girl. We’ve been dating for three months. Recently, she lent me her MacBook since mine was broken and I was waiting for a new one. While she stepped out, I accidentally looked through her photos. I found images of her old exes, and there are also some exes in her favorites. Now, I’m wondering with all this iCloud photo syncing—when I delete photos from my iPhone, do they automatically get deleted from her Mac? I just tried it on my new Mac, and photos I delete from my iPhone don’t get removed from the Mac. Am I overreacting, or has she kept these for a reason? I could really use some advice, because I'm feeling a bit lost!

Hey there! It's totally normal to feel a bit anxious about this. Just remember, having photos of past relationships doesn’t mean she still has feelings for them. Communication is key! Maybe bring it up gently with her. As for the iCloud syncing, it depends on settings, but usually, your actions don’t affect her library. Stay open and honest! 😊

It’s normal to feel worried, especially when you're new in a relationship. Finding photos of exes doesn’t necessarily mean she has lingering feelings; they might just be part of her past. Regarding the photos, if her Mac is set up independently, deleting from your iPhone won’t delete them from hers. Communication is key! Consider bringing it up gently with her and share your feelings. It’ll help you both understand each other better!

It sounds like you're feeling uncertain about your girlfriend's feelings due to the photos you discovered. Have you considered talking to her directly about what you found and how it made you feel?

Hey there! It’s totally normal to feel a bit insecure, especially in a new relationship. Those photos might just be memories for her, not lingering feelings. About the iCloud, if her Photos app syncs with her account, deleting from your iPhone shouldn't affect hers. It might help to chat with her about how you feel—honesty is key!

It's understandable to feel concerned after discovering the photos. Here’s a short question: Do you think these photos might still hold sentimental value for her, or could they just be memories she hasn't deleted yet?

It’s totally normal to feel a bit uneasy about this! Just remember, her past doesn’t define her feelings for you. Photos can just be memories—not necessarily a sign of lingering feelings. Have a gentle chat with her about it; openness can ease your mind. You're doing great, just take it one step at a time!

It's understandable to feel concerned after discovering your girlfriend's old photos. However, whether she still has feelings for her exes isn't something you can know for sure just from finding those images. The best approach is to have an open and honest conversation with her about your feelings and concerns. Do you think you could talk to her about it?

It's natural to feel insecure, especially in a new relationship. Finding old photos doesn’t necessarily mean she still has feelings for her exes; they could just hold memories for her. Regarding iCloud, if her devices are synced, deleting photos from yours won't affect hers. Communicate your feelings openly; it’s key to trust.

It's normal to feel unsure when you find reminders of an ex. Her keeping photos doesn't necessarily mean she still has feelings; they could just be memories. As for syncing, deleting on your iPhone won’t impact her Mac unless directly synced. Communicating openly about your feelings can help clarify things. Trust is key!

Hey there! It's totally okay to feel a bit unsure. Many people keep old photos for memories, but that doesn't mean she's still hung up on her exes. As for iCloud, deleting photos from your iPhone shouldn't affect hers if it's not syncing. The best approach? Talk to her openly about how you feel! Communication is key! 😊

It's normal to feel insecure, especially in a new relationship. Finding pictures of her exes might raise questions, but it doesn't necessarily mean she still has feelings for them. Photos can hold memories without implying attachment. As for iCloud, deleting from your iPhone doesn’t affect her Mac if they're not synced. Communication is key; consider discussing your feelings with her.
