    Nope... although I do still wear a ring the ex-husband's mother got me cause it is pretty. Other than that, not at all

    Nope, never.

    I still have it all though.
    I am debating selling/pawning or just switching out the diamonds in some of my favourite pieces and make them look less romantic and more fun (coloured gems instead).

    Nope, but only because my husband threw away the earrings that my ex boyfriend gave me when the hubby and I got back together. Guess I don't blame him.

    I sold it mainly because I don't wear yellow gold but if I liked it I would wear it, doesn't bother me at all.

    I say why not as long as you're not holding onto memories from it. If it's just a necklace, wear it. But if it's a necklace from Brian that you got on your second anniversary and you were at that great sushi restaurant on the water, then yeah, don't wear it.

    Yeah, but then we got back together and got married so he's not my ex anymore :)

    yes. why wouldn't i?
    i don't have to hate everything about them just because we're not together.

    Nope. Tossed it in my junk drawer and thats it. Plus, it would be weird to wear ex-bf jewelry around my current bf.

    I don't hate him and it didn't end on bad terms. I'm wearing a necklace he gave me today. I wasn't sure but then I thought well if I wouldn't wear this maybe I shouldnt use my kindle either.

    I wear some..diamond stud earrings in my second holes. I'd NEVER throw jewelry away! No need to get crazy! Lol! I did, however, sell a bunch of jewelry, including my engagement ring and wedding band and that got me to Europe.Prague was fabulous! So, thanks, dumbass exes!

    I have a very nice set of pearls that an ex gave me. I still wear them, and I still think of him very fondly (we broke up when I moved across the country to pursue education/career goals and he opted to stay "back home"). My husband is a little sensitive about it sometimes though, probably because it once came up that the pearls cost several times what my engagement ring did.

    Yep!! I don't wear my old engagement ring and wedding band, mind you, but anything else is free game! It's my jewelry; he's not going to wear it!

    No, I pawned that stuff. Not because my exes gave it to me, but because they apparently had no taste.

    I think I would wear them if they weren't really romantic.
    But mine was a promise ring and then a anniversary ring, so there is too much relationship reminders in them.

    Our relationship didn't end too badly or anything either.

    I'm not sure if he still wears anything I've bought him.
    Haven't seen him since.

    That is awesome lol.

    This is a Tiffany necklace which I basically picked out myself lol. It would be a shame to leave it in a drawer.

    I very rarely wear jewelry. The only things my ex gave me was my wedding set, and a necklace he bought me the first year we were married. I never wore the necklace and we ended up giving it to our daughter for her 13th birthday.

    Oh hell no, I donated that **** to the animal shelter thrift store. The ex loves animals so I thought it'd be appropriate.
