I didn't get rid of most the things my exes gave me, but I do not wear any of their jewelry anymore. I did while I was single, because, hell, I was single, who cared where the shit came from? But I'm not single anymore and I just don't feel right wearing that stuff around.
Ok...from what i gather...it is ok to wear them until i meet someone else....that's how i will play it...if my new gf has a problem with my old gf's rings then she can buy me new ones....and i'll stop wearing the others...i say that's fair lol
No it’s not its rude to all parties involved. I would put anything u get from exes in a box for when you are old.
What is the difference in wearing them or puting them in a box? I would still be keeping them for the same reason...
no. Absolutely not. it's an extremely disrespectful thing to do to yourself. ex means past, so everything related to them should be discarded. that's what i believe. if you cling on to the memoirs of your ex, you'll never be able to come out of the feeling that he/she is gone. but if your ex died (god forbid), you should keep the memoirs because he/she is gone forever and can never come back. but then again, it's entirely my own personal opinion.
I keep that stuff to show to my kids/grandkids when/if I have them. I do it because I wish my mom had kept more stuff like that. I probably will even give it to them. But I have this big ass wooden heart that says "Amanda & Michael" that my first boyfriend bought for me at Six Flags. I want to find a couple named Amanda and Michael to give it to, lol.
of course it is even though it is from a former lover, it doesn't have to be a symbol that they're still important to you a ring is just an accessory, it can mean anything you want it to I wear jewellery from ex boyfriends, I don't think of them when I look at the jewellery I think of how pretty it is, how it reminds me of the beautiful summer's day when I received it, how I went to an amazing concert a week later... jewellery should remind us of the good things in our life, and shouldn't remind us of former lovers unless we want it to
