Question

Will burning all my letters from my ex help me with closure?

I have a bunch of letters from him and i just wanted to know what i should do with them. should i keep them or burn them?

Answer 1

Only burn them if you are truly ready to put that person behind you. Remember, once you burn them they are gone forever so make sure you won't have any regrets. Me, I like to keep mine tucked away somewhere just in case I want to take a walk down memory lane and read them again someday. However, I only keep them from very special people who have come into my life. The others I could care less about and had no problem throwing them away.

Answer 2

its all in a persons preference...it could help you with closure or you can put them in a shoebox and put them in the closet..

i kept things from my past because later on (years later) its interesting to read them...

so its up to you if you want to burn them...
