Should I ask my friend to remove my pictures

from her FB page?
Loverboy and I decided to part ways two weeks ago due to time constraints ect and we're very happy to remain friends, well that was the case before the pictures surfaced.
He's just called saying he can't belive that I've moved on and found someone else so quick :eek: I haven't done any such thing. One of my friends posted a few photos on FB of our night out and I just happen to be on three pictures with the same man (random stranger just smilling).
So my question is can I/should I ask her to take down the three pictures as I don't want my ex upset any more than he already is,or should I just ignore him getting upset because I know I'm innocent of doing anything wrong.
I have to be honest I wouldn't be happy if it was the other way round, but as I'm not the owner of the photo's what can I do?

It's better to regret something I did do than to regret something that I didn’t. :EasterBun

Ignore him. Why should he be bothered given it didn't work out between you and him?Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -

Ahh you teenagers and your BookFace - such drama!0 -
If you and the ex have split amicably has he not accepted your explanation of who is in the photos?
You're not together any longer so where you go and who you stand next when having your piccy taken are not anyone else's business but your own.
I wouldn't be minded to make a big deal out of this with your friend but I would be minded to ignore the ex.0 -

That's the thing I don't know the man in the photo and he doesn't believe me.....he thinks that's the real reason for the break up but that's not true

Well, if you broke up by mutual agreement as you said, then it really doesn't matter who it is in the photo, does it?
To be honest, if he doesn't believe that the fellow is a random stranger imagine the fall-out when you do meet someone else. It sounds like this twit needs to be kicked to the kerb sooner rather than later.0 -

What does it matter if he doesn't believe you? you are no longer partners, so why are you worrying about what he is thinking?
It's nice you are friends, but I am getting the impression there's still feelings between you two....0 -
Surely asking your friend to delete the photos makes it look more suspicious than it already does to your ex? I would just ignore his comments and move on.0

If you feel uncomfortable about the photos, for whatever reason , you should definitely ask for them to be removed.I would;):D"You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf"

Could your friend caption them to make it obvious it's a random stranger?
Or take them down, I don't think it hurts to be considerate of other people's feelings.Make £25 a day in April £0/£750 (March £584, February £602, January £883.66)
