If they had the technology would you have your ex boyfriends (NSFW) memories removed of you?

Asked by RedDeerGuy1 (24999points) June 20th, 2023

Not just any nude poleriods, or Blu-rays, but actual memories?
Also is it constitutional?

That’s a serious ethical breach.

It’s one thing for me to decide to forget about an old girlfriends – that’s something I control in my head.

But for me to initiate something in someone else’s memory – that’s terrible. It’s unethical, it’s immoral, and just not a nice thing to do.

It’s not unconstitutional because the constitution never considered that sort of technology.

But simply on the face of it, it would be a horrible unethical thing to do to a person.

@elbanditoroso I think, but am not sure, that he’s asking if you could have those memories removed from you.

Either way, I wouldn’t want them removed from him or myself. Why would I??

I am who I am based on all I have been through and the good and bad memories of them.
I wouldn’t remove or mask a single thing.

No, but I’d maybe pay to have a few forgotten memories restored.

IF you’re asking if I would want MY memories removed, the answer would be NO!!! I’ve learned over time that the pain & misery that I experienced helped transform me into the woman that my last man LOVED!!! The pain of the first was well worth experiencing to find the LOVE of the last!!!

IF you’re asking if I would want the ex’s memories removed, I really wouldn’t care because I STOPPED caring what he thought the day we split!!!

Is it constitutional??? Probably not right now. Still, if the technology is ever perfected, I bet that would change!!!

Not for me or for him, it was a beautiful relationship most of the time. We would likely both be happier now if those memories were gone though, as not much compares to near perfection.

I learned what not to do from that. If erased I might do those stupid things again.
