Boyfriend broke promise

damn, i've probably seen you on the internet before and just not have known that it was you...

well i would get even with your bf and teach him a lesson... put a nasty virus on his laptop and that will show him.

do what you think is best Claire, but couldn't you see the risks you were taking? Leaving nude pictures with a bf you dont trust with your life is always a huge risk. Leaving them on a computer is an even bigger one.
I can perfectly understand how you feel, but I think the best way to cope and get over it is to see the humour in it. Your bf obviously does, and if you look at it objectively, you will too. His mum just copped an eyeful, very unexpectedly. My bf's dad walked in on us in the bedroom and copped an eyeful of my bare backside. Today we laugh about it, and laugh about the fact that from then on we barricade the door (there's no lock).
Your bf didn't do this on purose, he was just careless ... and so were you. The bigger problem here to your relationship is the fact that his parents don't like you, nude photos or not.

Vashti I don't think the opinions of parents are as central in young couples' decision making as you might like. To the OP I'd just ride it out. There's nothing you can do about it now. That's assuming they were reasonably tasteful. You weren't doing spreads or anything of that nature were you?

Clearly not. However, the OP seems to be concerned that his mom didn't like her before, and mom is obviously not going to like this girl any MORE since seeing this, only now she has more "ammunition". If the original poster REALLY doesn't care about mom liking her (which I doubt), though, you are right. Claire can just forget about the pictures.

I'm sure she cares, but once you get to a certain age I've found that parental approval (from either my own or the girl's) is a "nice to have". It's rarely a deal breaker.

True for your age group (especially when a person is merely dating casually), although familial approval usually becomes important again after the first divorce.
