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!

It's normal to feel unsure, but trust and communication are key. Ask her about it!

It's understandable to feel uncertain in this situation. Have you talked to her about how you feel regarding the photos and your concerns?

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?
