My bitch ex wife updated her google pfp and now every time i open up the messenging app i have to see her face. I clicked on her name and pressed the removed button, but it seems to reload itself every day.
Set her picture in the contacts app to something else, manually
I dont know why i didn’t think of that, lol. I’ll try it and see if it sticks this time. thanks dude
This is the way
If you don’t have need to contact her, remove her as a contact.
If you have shared responsibilities such as children, update the picture in your contacts and figure out a way to work through the anger and hurt because if you don’t, you’ll end up alienating yourself from them. If you have non-human shared responsibilities, do so for your benefit and that of your future partner(s) - keeping it alive by habitually referring to them derogatorily will just self-condition you to hold onto it and live in your past. I recommend a mental health professional like a licensed therapist but that’s not for everyone.
Okay, i understand that you are coming from a place of wanting to help, and you didn’t need to do that, so i appreciate that aspect of this response.
But dude you pulled a lot of context out of a very short post. I’m asking how to change a picture and you recommended me seek mental help.
One other solution to throw into the ring - delete the contact and re-enter it as a “phone only” contact. That way it’s not connected to her Google services whatsoever.
Thats a good idea, and ill keep that option as a last measure type deal. Hopefully editing the contacts app fixes it. Thanks dude!
It’d be nice if you edited out the b**** part because while you have the right to those feelings, most of us likely don’t want that negativity here and what you’re looking for really is a technical solution.
That is the most bitch way you could have asked me to do that.
Sorry Karen.
Hey, just a heads up - you can easily install a profanity filter extension on just about any browser, mobile or otherwise. Here’s an example for Chrome:

That way you don’t have to see stuff you don’t want to, but also don’t have to attempt to modify the way other people speak to suit your desires.
This isn’t really about profanity but just proper etiquette when asking a support question. People don’t want to know what you think of your ex-wife and how you refer to her in a derogatory way. Asking about how to remove someone’s contact picture is one thing that’s completely fine, but starting the post by saying you don’t want to see your “bitch ex-wife”'s face is simply unnecessary.
