    Well he was real annoyed about it, and had asked other people did they think it was weird.
    He hasnt mentioned it recently so maybe he has gotten over it?

    More than likely - ah, give him a bit of assurance and he'll be grand.:)


    God, I sound like my mother!!!!!!!!!!!

    I made a clip out of an engagement ring!!!

    And my friend made earrings and a pendant out of hers!!

    We often have a laugh when we meet up and are wearing them :D

    Haha! I did offer to give it back to him, cause y'know diamonds ain't cheap, but he wanted me to keep it.

    I keep loads of little things from previous relationships. How else will you remember them when you're old sure? :P I don't see any harm in it to be honest and anyone who gets jealous over material things is suffering from a case of low self esteem in my eyes.

    I'm a total hoarder , so I've loads of stuff collected over the years. Think I may have a cinema ticket stub for when I first saw 'Shrek' , when I was 12! :pac: I can't bear to part with stuff like that, too many memories. I've stuff from ex's and friends I never see anymore. It's more that they remind me of a specific time in my life, rather than a person, and I like keeping them to remind me how far I've come, as cheesy as that sounds.

    I think it depends why he doesn't like it - If it is for the reason that he thinks you wear because of the ex then you need to chat about it to him

    Completely agree! Personally, I'd feel that it demonstrated a lack of trust and openness in the relationship if they had an issue with the item because of who it came from.

    I keep things from my exes, but have them all hidden in my wardrobe! I'm over them, but don't need to be remind of them constantly by having things they gave me in constant view.

    I am the same. I have a box of things from my ex. Just all the bits and bobs I used to have around. I packed them all away and put them in a box. I would never want to bin them. They are my memories. No one elses.
