There’s nothing like photographic evidence to help with remembering the myriad (read: awkward, sexy, heartfelt) feelings brought on by old flames. Stumbling upon an old Facebook photo is strange enough, but imagine if your relationship was documented and then archived by LIFE Magazine.
Old Love is a blog that offers a glimpse into the former relationships of celebrities. It works as both a nostalgic look back at people you knew were together (Julia Roberts & Keifer Sutherland), those who you didn’t know were together but seemed like a match made in heaven (Bai Ling & Bill Maher [jay/kay]) and the couplings that were doomed from the start (ummmm, Judd Nelson & Shannon Doherty, or John Stamos & Paula Abdul?). It doesn’t just stay in the 90s realm either; there are tons of images of old time flings had by figures like Hemingway, Liz Taylor, and Howard Hughes. BTW, Drew Barrymore and Corey Feldman = a match made in tween heaven <3<3<3<3:
