Relationships are not my thing really, but I can say that locations like music can really hold memories forever. My first real relationship, not the you know cutesy 10 year old kiss on the cheek thing, but a serious relationship, lasted for just about 5ish months. She only lived about 10 mins away from me yet even though its been 4ish years i still avoid going through her area of the city like its radioactive and has the plague, it just holds to many memories that i try to shove out of my head. I can remember listening to a bunch of The Doors songs with her and they were my favorite band and now I rarely listen to them as it just brings up memories. I can also remember being 3 or 4 and playing sonic on my sega and being happy and each time i hear the sound of the rings being collected or the music it provokes happiness even though i havent played sonic since i was about 8. What he feels, I dont think is weird as i still feel pissy and angry if someone tries to get me to go somewhere and drives through that part of town. I just wouldnt worry about it too much unless it gets completely out of hand. Also i agree with hamster's point of why he keeps momentos, that really is the way a lot of guys handle things I even keep the nazi stamp she bought me even though its a fake (I am sort of a novice collector) as it is just enough reminder that there was a high point in my life. That part really isnt anything to worry about. I do hope that everything works out in a positive manner for everyone. Best of luck.
