Thanks mom...
We broke up on New Years.
It was messy at first, but we both knew it was for the best; it still hurts and I'm not coping too well, my mother is fully aware of that fact and still chose to hang a multi picture frame of us in the living room.
I already have a strong detachment from my house and this is going to make being home even harder.
She refused to take it down because they're "good pictures".
Not sure how to handle it, I can barely handle my depression as is.
Needed to dump this somewhere.
FP edit: despite a lot of my posts going viral this week I honestly didn't think this would. To those of you who have reached out to me, I truly appreciate it. Please do not take offense to me not replying, as I'm sure most of you can relate, I am very bad with feelings and will probably leave your messages un-replied to because of who I am as a person. Nonetheless, it means a lot to me to know you guys can relate.
Thanks internet strangers...live long and prosper

Cut out his eyeholes, return to frame

Yes. You should tell her to respect your feelings.
Bellazago
Burn em
hotandgloomy
At work, I like to print out pictures of Mr Bean's face and tape them inside my coworkers' picture frames.
agrrrrimapirate
Put a cutout of another person's head over his
iamjman
You should put up your own picture of something your mom dislikes and put it up all over the house. Tell her you'll take it down when she do
n8wishim
At some point in life it’s necessary (not possible!) to show your mother boundaries. Usually around 40, but when it’s time, it’s time. Deal.
BugEyedLemur
Show up randomly one day unannounced, walk in and smash it on the ground and then walk out without saying a word.
Bullheadbelly
Just put them up and cut the ex’s face out.
terminatorlx3
Ur Moms a dick.
zomgkiwi
Cut out the face of your fav actor and glue his/hers face over your ex face.
SuplexAlot
Take them down and fuck them off.
SuplexAlot
@op your mum sounds like a turd... without question she should respect your feelings.
TheGraveminder
When my husband and I got married, his mom tried to move his ex into her house because 1/2
TheGraveminder
"They need 2 be around eachother so he knows he made a mistake &theyll get back together. Thats just the way it is & you need 2 accept that"
TheGraveminder
- one of many quotes from his mother to me.
1414145691
...and you still married into the family? holy shit
TheGraveminder
She was super nice to me until we were officially married. It was like a switch flipped.
1414145691
evil, disingenuous and calculating
TohruH3
Sounds like she didn't want him married to ANYbody. If he had married the ex, she probably would have pulled something similar.
SociopathicOtter
Sometimes if you love someone, it means loathing family members together, as a team.
1414145691
you're lucky you have that but in the end most people's loyalty is to parents over partners, relationships are never unconditional
shockerslights
Tell her she need to respect that face that it’s over and move on if she can’t do that she is making your life difficult
toxcrusadr
Politely say "I won't be able to come over as long as you have those pictures up." And don't.
FlatPlutoSociety
"They're good pictures, but looking at them hurts right now. Please don't prioritize making the living room look nice over my well-being."
Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
That’s right, you tell her to RESPECT YOUR FACE DAMMIT
shockerslights
Oh no, no nooooo abandon thread!!!
janeyomac
Just swap the picture with a nice one of you and her and I'm sure she won't mind.
TheCentralIntelligenceAgency
Or even a CIA logo
annibe11e
Or mom and the ex, since she likes him so damn much.
m053486
Perhaps not, mom might not be over the breakup.
rabbiebabbie
That would be a very mature and reasonable thing HOWEVER wouldn't it be better to just burn the house down?
zertmaster
Naa just burn it with a torch like you do spiders under a trailer.
aznanimality
Count me in for this one
FlatPlutoSociety
Listen to this person, @OP. They are clearly an experienced family therapist.
toxcrusadr
Valid question. Collective brain of Imgur at work!
deskrubbit
We are a scary super intelligent hive mind.
UncleShitSmear
Imgur plays pokemon, manages to shoot up a school in Campo region
EatsBees
Super scary super intelligent hive mind. FIFY
deskrubbit
Fair enough. +1
GilderoyPopDropNLockart
Or better yet swap in Kim Jong Un
AttackOfTheSloths
I finally get to say it. I get that reference
aKaiAppears
SMODomite
rainbow404
Or an actor you think is attractive??
EatsBees
I vote for this
LSebastian
Or Vladimir Putin
cornzilla
Or nicholas cage. That was a huge hit at my house.
GirlDicks
Or some nice Swastikas maybe.
JohnnyDeppsIllegalDogs
Maybe not

givemeyourdickpics
The upvotes confuse me. The mom lacks empathy and the suggestion is that the broken hearted should somehow resolve
annibe11e
Because that's the best way to deal with someone like that.
Losrae
You could start a fight over it, but she would never see she has done anything wrong, just that your reaction hurts her. Even if you know she is wrong, having her sad and angry and blaming you can still hurt you all the same. Not a war one is usually ready to start when they are already depressed.
givemeyourdickpics
By going out of your way for the person who hurts you?
annibe11e
Yes, if it's an important relationship
givemeyourdickpics
Maybe it's me but I do not maintain "important" relationships that disregard my feelings. To each his own misery
emiliato
break the fucking picture goddamit son
RegularForcesMedic
"Sorry, Mom, I won't be by to visit until those photos are taken down."
AnnieGitchYerGun
Dude - your mom is a selfish cunt. Sorry - but who does that to their kid? You're suffering? Oh, well, here's some salt for yer wounds.
HeyFreckleFace
Seriously, how fucking rude and tacky is that? If that were me I'd tell my mother to go take a high dive into a low well.
AnnieGitchYerGun
My mom.would never do something like this. It's a cruel thing to do and says so much about her and the value she doesn't place on her
AnnieGitchYerGun
Relationship with her son. I'm so indignant on this person's behalf.
WhySoCerealZ
Burn it!!
Kovahjin
Smash them against the wall. It's cathartic and gets the point across. Also this is probably bad advice.
Zootsoot
Troll her back. Start coming over when she's out and replacing them with pictures of other people or someone else 'shopped into ex place
SociopathicOtter
I loved doing this shit to my mom. She never noticed, but I always got a giggle.
Zootsoot
That's awesome!
ImpressiveDangle
cbutler84
My ex mother-in-law had a huge picture of my then husband and his ex girlfriend hanging in her living room. She refused to take it down,>>
cbutler84
So we stopped visiting. My ex mother-in-law and I stopped getting along. And blames me for her falling out with her son.
cbutler84
My advice, just don't go over. Meet your mother at a restaurant instead of her house. Eventually she'll take it down
abbiapocalypse
I’m sorry. My mom went through my childhood home and took down ANY photo with me in it. Kept the ones of siblings, cousins and my children.
HoneyBunchesOfStoats
wow, messed up. Hope you're doing ok now
JestersWing
I'm not taking my breakup so well either. I'm here to talk. I know I need somebody.
automaticallymoderated
It gets easier. Promise.
JestersWing
It will. Not now. Not soon. But I know it will. But that doesn't make it hurt less.
pepperminticecream
Get digital copies of the pics and photoshop something funny in place of you ex. Or email them to me and I'll do it. Replace without a word.
WeatherWiz
Seems like your mother hasn’t moved on
Isaidwewillcutoffyourjohnson
Tell me about it.
WeatherWiz
I mean you could tell her/coerce her to change it and tell her it’s not healthy, or wait till you get into another relationship
TexasYall
Take the pictures off the wall, give them to her and say exactly this... “This relationship is over, this person is no longer a part of 1/2
TexasYall
Your life or mine. It is hard enough moving on without seeing their face every day. Please take and keep them down.”

NCPBullet
Your mom is a fucking idiot
Secretsquid
She's being a bit of a bitch
Bundacious
TIL OP mom is a cunt. Fur realz
Tknuckles1
Seconded
FoolMeTwice
Bitch, the term you are looking for is bitch.
HorribleMonster
That's not a mom, that's a birth machine. A mom wouldn't have done this.
TotallyNotADogInTrenchCoat
And very manipulative.
7500
Agreed
freedomofnow
Second this. Very disrespectful!
Draegos1
This. There is a time and place for tact and this is not that time. Only an idiot would do something like that in this circumstance...
sometimesipostsockshere
My mom took down pictures of me and my ex without even asking. When my ex asked after those pictures, she told that they're in the trash.
sometimesipostsockshere
My mom knows her shit.
austinpowersstuntdouble
Yeah dude. This is shitty for a mom to do.
IfIwereyouIwouldnotbeme
Cheers to that.
youwontlikewhateveriwrite
Be assertive. Take the picture down yourself.
[deleted]

youwontlikewhateveriwrite
That seems a bit excessive. If it had to come to that, I think just not hanging out at mom's house would be a better choice.
hootimcowlface
Fuck yeah
Yojoo
Then pee on it.
youwontlikewhateveriwrite
an excellent way to assert dominance.
Sentrisable
While making eye contact
Yersister1969
And demand a handy
1414145691
You'd need a spine for that, and Op clearly doesn't have one if his mother thought that was an acceptable move in the first place
Net05
Depression is a pretty good spine hider when everything seems pointless, hopeless, and that picture is just a reminder of futility of it all
sleepingamongdragons
I feel like this is something my boyfriend's mother would do if him and I broke up :\ She's a real winner that one
muswellhillbilly
(we don't know it's a guy)
1414145691
in such a case simply replace "his" with "her"... simple
youwontlikewhateveriwrite
Op commented another post saying she's female, although these days that doesn't mean a damn thing.
lochnessm0nster
How do you manage to be that much of a cunt
1414145691
well tell me, am I wrong?
lochnessm0nster
I mean...kinda
toxcrusadr
Truth is we don't know what the hell she's like, except for this one thing. Crazy mom does not equal spineless kids.
1414145691
no but I can take a pretty good guess and likely more likely I'm right than wrong, infact I'd give it a good 85% or so odds my way
youwontlikewhateveriwrite
so lets encourage op to grow that spine?
annibe11e
Is OP an invertebrate?
1414145691
try as you might you'll be wasting your time, it has to come from within
bigkingdingaling
I agree, but this place doesn't like being direct with people.
1414145691
nobody likes being direct any more, if you do you're seen as provocative or a troll - even if what you say is only provocative in the sense>
youwontlikewhateveriwrite
I guess we'll just have to wait for an update then.
TabletsForPorn
So I'm guessing you have a massive asshole within?
1414145691
my asshole is regular sized, my intestines I'm unsure about I never had a scan or anything
mjbabe
Baby steps! take a marker and put a mustache and pioneer hat and devil tail on your ex!
