Hmm. I have to say I'm with you on this, I really don't agree with him keeping pictures of his exes. Yes, that may well be his history. But history of relationships are always complex, and in my opinion, they should be left in the past. No keep sakes, no pictures of exes, no reminders. You need to get rid of it all in order to truly move on with your life. Especially if you know these people won't be part of your life again.
He has no right to make you delete pictures of you and friends, those are memories you've made that you may want to hold onto. And for anyone who tries to say I've just contradicted myself, these kind of memories are totally different than keeping memories of broken relationships.
They're kept in the past so that we can move on and learn from before. It's only fair it's giving you 100% of his love, attention and honour hun, don't settle for any less.
I reckon it's time to lay the cards down and have a chat with him. He needs to know this is about you and him, not you him Sandra and Sally.

I understand him wanting to keep pictures of all parts of his life, but making you delete your pictures at the same time is something I'd get seriously pissed about. They're yours and getting rid of them is not his decision to make!
You need to point that out to him. Stand up for yourself as your being his doormat. If it doesn't matter to him tell him you want to see him get rid of them
Yeah, that's entirely unreasonable and unfair. He can't expect you to delete photos from your past while he keeps his and you shouldn't stand for that. You have the ability to say no so start saying it. He has to realise that a marriage is about give and take, not about take and take.
The pics he keeps are his history. As long as he doesn't place them out for all to see, you need to let him keep them. As for shredding pictures of you. . . he does this to wound you and he figures they're replaceable anyway. The solution is not to get in a vicious argument.

That's messed up. If I was you, I'd seriously have a talk with him about this.
It's part of our history. I have a framed picture of my ex and I, and it's not going anywhere.
sounds like its time to break up
