Divorce etiquette?

I have almost all of the photos that were ever taken during my marriage, minus what might on his phone maybe. I have every vacation, every event, all school pictures, all class pictures of our kids during each grade, etc. Of course I have all of the wedding photos too.

I also have every card, every picture drawn, every ornament, and pretty much every single thing that the children made us during the 15 year marriage.

I have all of the report cards or the school awards or the art pictures sent home as well.

He did not ask for a single bit of it. I even had to give him back his own childhood pictures that his mother gave to us.

Is this typical?

I recently went through some of it and thought about giving him some of it but then thought no, if he wanted it he would’ve asked for it.

A lot of men aren’t attached to things like that I think. When my parents died my brothers didn’t want any of that either from my parents belongings. I have their wedding albums all the children’s pics and every single important document of our family history. I found this odd bc when my mom died (first) one of my brothers refused to let my father get rid of anything bc he himself was too attached to her belongings. My dad wanted them gone bc it hurt him to look at them. I don’t get it but I think many men don’t care about those things.
