Discussion
An imaginary situation for you to ponder.
Imagine that, some 6 or 7 years ago, you had a brief (< 1 year) but fairly intense relationship with someone, who eventually returned to her estranged husband. At the time, husband knew about you, although you suspect that she played down the depth and significance of the situation between you.
After she returned to him, he took some delight in sending you mocking texts from time to time, often in the small hours of the morning saying something like "I've just sh@gged her, she was great", that type of thing. You played the gentleman card, and ignored them completely.
Fast forward to now. You're extremely happily married, and about to move to a new house with your wife. You're clearing out the loft, and discover a few pictures of said woman from the past.
So, apart obviously from posting them on here, do you:
(a) shred the pictures (your wife has already had a look at them with you, so she knows all about them) and be done with it
or
(b) post them off to the husband, with a note saying something like:
"Dear X, I found these pictures of your lovely wife recently, and rather than shred them, I thought you might like them. I seem to recall that these were taken on the same day that I first took her up the wrong 'un. Have a good day."
Over to you lot. Popcorn's on me.

You evidently weren't the better man back then, have a go at it now.
Completely agree, and significantly lessens any chance of the nice shiny new wife finding out that you have little or no respect for the sanctity of marriage, and will happily engage in adultery.You evidently weren't the better man back then, have a go at it now.

Hang on...they (the woman and husband) were estranged. The OP wasn't cuckolding the husband (who sounds like a complete flange)You evidently weren't the better man back then, have a go at it now.
