Posted "Legendary days" on an old photo on Facebook!

I know my husband’s past; he had shared a photo with his ex-girlfriend long ago. Now, he commented on that same photo, saying ‘Those were legendary days’ under a friend’s comment. I stumbled upon this accidentally, and I’m hesitant to ask about it, but I feel a deep unease inside. Do you think this is worth discussing? Or should I just completely ignore it?

I think it’s quite normal, everyone remembers their past in some way. For example, I also miss the photos I took with my friends back then; you don’t necessarily have to think about an ex. Honestly, I don’t think when your friend says “legendary days” they’re sending you a message.

I think you can ask this with a bit of sweetness. For example, approach it with a light smile and say something like, ‘I saw that photo you said was legendary, it was so funny.’ You can gauge their reaction. If they immediately get defensive, then you might need to push a bit more.

What’s with this logic, seriously? Just because a guy called something ‘legendary’, do we really have to create an issue right away? I think there’s no point in dragging up an old debate out of nowhere. He had a completely different life back then; you can’t interfere with that.

Social media draws people into a somewhat fake nostalgia. An old photo and the comment “legendary” is often perceived not as an emotional connection, but as an attachment to the memory. However, if your discomfort is serious, I recommend considering a little media detox or seeking support from a professional.

Let me add that the photo was general, it didn’t point to a specific situation. But sometimes I find myself a bit jealous of the way he looks at his ex; I’m a little sensitive about that. Anyway, I think I’ll observe a bit more before pushing the issue.

A married person needs to be more careful about such things, after all, this is a matter that concerns both you and your family. I’m sorry, but you should have made your stance clear from the beginning. Today you may long for the past, but who knows what will happen tomorrow. I suggest you be careful.
