Is it normal for my bf to have pictures of other girls?

It is only normal if you are attracted to them for a threesome.

There has to be more to the story.

Can you please elaborate?

I have photos of all my previous GF's in life as they are all good memories and represent part of my life (and many of those are paper photo's).

The GF who became my wife wanted to see them so she knew who I would talk about occasionally, and she also wanted to see what kind of Lady I normally dated. She quickly found out it wasn't based on looks... I dated woman who were willing to show me they had a brain and we shared similar values and dreams.

None of these pictures were nude or partially nude sexy shots (although some are in swimsuit as we were at a beach).

Just totally normally photos that everyone takes.

If that's what he has... Totally normal; and don't you have some past boyfriends who occupied a special part of your past. There is nothing wrong with remembering the good things in the past as long as you understand they are in the past and helped lead you to the present.

Now if he as a bunch of near pornographic pictures - then you need to ask why?

In my case, I have a collection of art nude photos on my computer as I feel that the body is an art-form in and of itself (good paintings and pictures are rare though - there's tons of junk out there: but, you only learn by starting to make the junk and things that don't work out). I told the Lady who became my wife about them and she asked to see them. My wife is from Europe and the art museums over there are full of nudes. My wife actually liked most of them, and only asked me about a few of them (what did I see in them). So, its worth asking why he has them... and it may be totally reasonable.

I wish you well with this,

Girl need to ask him to throw or delete them!! You two are together now so its you two that should have pic of each other!!! Just saying

Being a guy - I'd say it's pretty normal.

I totally get that you might feel unsecure if you see him having photos of other girls (and it certainly sounds strange that he'd let you see them, since it's something guys normally would probably hide, just to stay away from questions like this xD)

but generally that seems pretty normal. I mean.. you probably check out other guys as well or might do so if you 2 are currently "freshly together", but sooner or later the "pink glasses" will come off and everybody starts looking at other people again, even if they're not specifically looking to do anything with them, if that makes sense ?

You can still be happy in a relationship but appreciate how other people look and all that

The question I'd ask myself is, 'how is he using them?'.

I have pictures of someone I love unrequitedly and they are perfectly decent, innocuous pictures - the sort you would put on a professional CV or LinkedIn profile, even - but when I look at them, it's with this intense, fruitless longing for someone I know I will never be able to have. I know that that's not healthy or good.

If your beau is doing that with his pictures while he's with you, then that's bang out of order.

We need more context, are they his friends? What sort of photos are they?

Probably girls he use to date or girls from online

As in racy photos? Are they pictures of him with them? If it's pictures of solely the girls, it might be weird. It might not be that deep, though.
