An ex's ring but a new boyfriend?
17/f
My ex had given me a promise ring two years ago and I had just recently found it. It's gorgeous (he did have a lot of money) and I like to wear it alot. However, I have a new boyfriend and we've been going out for almost a year now. The ring has no sentimental value to me once so ever. I just think it's pretty. Is it wrong to wear it now that I have a new boyfriend?
Please give me your opinion. Thanks :D

My exboyfriend also gave me a promise ring & when we broke up I kept, although I never wear it I do keep it on my keychain. I am now married & still have the ring, my husband knows that I have it, but he also knows that I love him & that my exboyfriend is my best friend now & I would never ever leave my husband.
I think that if you are over your exboyfriend & the ring means nothing, I see nothing wrong with wearing it. Although others might think it is wrong, its what you think that matters most. Just make sure that it will not hurt your new boyfriends feelings :)

How would you feel if it was the other way around and he was wearing the ring his ex girlfriend got him?
Although it doesn't have sentimental value, I, personally think it's a little rude to wear it - because it's not like a teddy bear or something, it's a promise ring - and once upon a time, it DID mean something to you. and no matter what, every time you look at it, you WILL remember where it came from, even if you don't want to.

Personally when a guy gives you a ring and you are not together anymore the right thing is to actually return the ring to the person who originally bought it which would be your ex. Despite whether he has money or not it's the right thing to do.
I would NOT wear the ring, Why? because was clearly given to you as a promise ring from your ex boyfriend. It's almost as bad as dating someone who has gone through a divorced but yet they still want to wear their ring from the marriage because "it's pretty" It's not acceptable and it's not appropriate. Yes, also I would at least tell your boyfriend where it came from and what it was originally given to you as if he is okay with it then I guess you could wear it.

lol who cares, just wear it! if its a pretty ring and that is your reason for wearing it then go ahead. just dont tell your boyfriend who gave it to you. =]

If it's clearly a promise ring in it's style, yes, that's not really appropriate.
Otherwise, it's not so much 'wrong', but it might still be 'unkind' or 'insensitive'.
Show your new boyfriend a bit of respect and let him know what it is, where it came from and how you feel about it. Discovering after months of you wearing it that it is a promise ring from an ex, would be naturally upsetting. So be honest, and hear out his feelings on the subject as well.
