Why is facebook photo memories showing pictures of my ex gf?

[Martha sylvia]

Facebook photo memories, a new feature on facebook, shows you old albums and pictures but is getting me mad because it only shows me pictures of me and my ex girlfriend, and the same happens with friends that had ex girlfriends too, what the f... is wrong with facebook?

I'll quote you:
'shows you old albums'
'old albums'
'old'

Hope this helps ^_^

It does my head in too. Facebooks privacy is so bad its a joke.

Yeah, it's been doing that for me with a guy I used to be kind of obsessed with. I just looked up to see if anyone was having a similar problem because I was going to ask the same question: Why does it only ever show me pictures of him.
I never even had a relationship status with him so it can't be that. I can only assume that we've all tended to look through pictures of these people so much more than pictures of our other friends that Facebook assumes they're the pictures we're most interested in.
Even though actually, when my boyfriend's in the room, the last thing I want is Facebook going HEY LOOK HERE'S SOME PICTURES OF THAT GUY YOU SLEPT WITH AND THEN STALKED FOR A YEAR.

Really, really stupid feature of Facebook's... I'm gonna go see if they have some kind of complaints and suggestions feature to point out its stupidity now.

*Edit: Haha, just after I sent the suggestion to Facebook ( http://www.facebook.com/help/#!/help/?topic=suggestions if you want to do it too), I checked again and for the FIRST TIME EVER it showed different people in Photo Memories: One of my current boyfriend and another of my ex. Still following the same trends, but at least I know it's not going to be stuck on that same guy forever.

totally agree with lisa above

the SAMEEEEE guy is ALWAYS on my photo memories... (he's my crush) and i have NO photos w/ him or any album together. I've realized it's because i go through his tagged photos and albums a lot and so i guess facebook picked up that i look at his pics a lot. Same with this other girl.. who i creep her photos a lot LOL and she seems to pop up in my photo memories a lot too. so I guess if u look through a person's photos a lot... they'll appear in photo mems

Thank god I'm not the only one seeing this! It's seriously been driving me insane; every single time I hop on there's one album of hers or another. Anywho, not sure exactly why it is, but the idea that facebook trys to link ya to albums you look at most seems to make sense...
