S.O. wearing ex's jewelry?
So I was curious about this. Do you think it's ok for your significant other to wear jewelry or clothing articles from their previous significant others? My girlfriend has a few very minor jewlery pieces that she has from past relationships. I don't really care that much, except for a necklace she has from a previous boyfriend that I really don't like, but it's an annoyance that I can deal with. Is there some form of etiquette on this topic? If she had a ton of it, then I would probably be a little more annoyed. I'm sure a lot of you have had similar issues, just curious if it bothered you or not.

Kill the bitch!
I keed! I keed! ![]() Seriously though... there's no need for her to wear that shit. She's holding on to something. It meant something to her then just because she's with you doesn't mean it doesn't now. If you're fine with it then be fine with it... If you're not... it's a matter of disrespect and you need to grow a pair. |

De Beers would suggest you replace that necklace.

I guess it would depend on the jewelry, the simple generic type stuff I wouldn't sweat. The others, hmmm.

It's just a stupid piece of jewelry. Don't be all insecure or jealous because the shit she has didn't all come from you. It's just stuff. If you make a scene over it, you're just going to come off as a dick.

She should stop wearing a necklace she likes because you don't like the dude who bought it. I'm gonna tell you straight up, if you say shit bout it, it makes you look like you're threatened by this dude, essentially giving him power over you and her. Act like you don't give a ****. Even if you do. Oh, and buy her one that is NICER. |

I don't really see an issue with it.
If it was an engagement ring or a locket with his and her pictures in it, I could see having an issue, but not just some generic earings or whatever. I still have clothes from past girlfriends, and it never brings back some emotional attachment when I wear it. How did it come up that it was a gift from an ex? Did she specifically point it out, or did you ask?

I'd draw the line at wedding rings or engagement rings.
Other than that, the key is the symbolism. Does she just think it's a necklace, or does she think it's a reminder of the deep and abiding love she once had for Percival or Chauncey or whatever his name is?

I was going to post this. But with way more sexual innuendo.

It would be impossible to have more sexual innuendo than one of my posts. It's just deeply buried between the lines.
