That would PISS me off. My Dh was never married to BM so I don't have to deal with that. I took mine and had them reset. I gave one of my wedding bands to my oldest son for his GF when they get married. The other is in the safe.

Ugh I wouldn't like that. I have asked DH where his is but it was so long ago I know he does not have it. I had my old engagement ring from my exh. DH was very upset when he realized I still had it. Turns out my cousin wanted to ask his girlfriend to marry him and didn't have the money for a nice ring. I had it appraised for him and the jewelry store mailed it to him so he took the diamond and just got a new setting. I am very close with his mother so I gave it to him for free, he just paid for it to be appraised.

I have no idea what DH did with his ring. Last I saw it, it was in a box in the garage, but all of those boxes are gone now. I assume he tossed it. It would bother me too having it there, staring me in the face all of the time. Although DH never wore his even when they were married (all 6 months of it).

DH and I pawned my old wedding ring and went to Disneyland we didn't even really need the money, it just seemed like the right thing to do. hee hee

After having dated my SO for about 6 months, I had to go get his keys for him & low & behold...there it was, on his key ring. I told him how uncomfortable it made me....I actually got my SO a nice little wooden box & told him "Look babe, you can put all of your little private things in there"...while looking directly at the ring About a year later, he sold it for it's value in gold & we went out for a nice dinner.

I would tell him that you don't like seeing it so until he gets rid of it (whether he sells it or gives it to the SKids) it should be put away, in a box, so that you aren't forced to witness yet another testament of their "love".

I have no clue what DH did w/his old wedding band nor do I care. He moved alot after they split and pretty much moved in w/me with nothing so who knows. lol

When I left Exh I wasnt wearing my eng ring, my kids said he sold it and bought an xbox. hahahahaha I sold my old wedding band and used the money to get my new wedding set sized.

BM pawned DH's ring before she ever left. He was without one for the last almost 1 1/2 years they were together.

Last I knew my exH still had his from our marriage in the drawer in his bedside table. His then-gf was pissed about it & I told him she had every right to be. We don't have kids together, so I know he wasn't keeping it for that reason.

I told him I sold my set to pay bills & he was honestly beside himself over it.

If I were you, I'd take it out of the truck & put it away. If he wants to sell it, he can put it in the truck long enough to get to wherever he's going to sell it.

He's being disrespectful keeping it on display in front of you all the time.

My dh wasn't wearing a ring when he was married to yuck, he lost years before and never replaced it. He said that he knew the marriage was over but he stuck around for the kids for a while and when that didn't work (the night she hit him over 30 times while he had their youngest in his arms)he left.

However I would have already tossed that sucker and plead the 5th! i have done that with a few things already. }:)

Ex threw mine out the window of a moving car one day when he was convinced I was cheating (in reality he was the one cheating, oh well). The ring he gave me as "replacement" was salvaged from the depths of his apartment after he died by my ex-bil and I have it in my foot locker in a box for my BD when she is of age.

DH's used to sit in a this box he has in the bathroom with a glass door for display. It's like a three drawered jewerly box on one side, and a door with three shelves on the other. It was displayed there. Once I moved in, I told him it made me uncomfortable. He said it was something he wanted to keep for the kids and he really liked the ring and thought that he might wear it again when we got married. Needless to say, I laughed him out of the room, told him never in a thousand years would he be wearing that piece of tin if WE got married and he better put in a box somewhere or it would mysteriously vanish. He got the hint.

I kept the jewelry my ex gave me and had the stones reset into jewelry for my Bio children when the graduated from High School. They helped to pick out the setting and we picked the stone that would fit. The picked apart remnants are sitting in my jewelry box waiting for my granddaughter someday.

Ok, you pick up the ring, you get in your car, you go anywhere you want and sell it. Or really, if it's gold, since it's worth so much, if you don't need the money, melt it into something else...period. When he asks what happened to it, just say "oh, my! the ring is gone? how could you have lost it!?!" :sick:

I still have mine, figured I'd have them reset someday or something. I wouldn't feel right about giving rings from a failed marriage to my sons. Bad juju and all that. More than likely, they'll just sit in a box until the end of time.

SO still has his. It doesn't bother me. I think he tried selling it once, but it wasn't worth anything. It's rolling around in his nightstand or junk drawer, we're not really sure as we haven't seen it in a while.

Me & my exh paid just under $4k for my first set & I sold it for $300. It hurt my gut to realize that was the highest offer, but it paid a couple of bills & it was good for my soul to be rid of it. It also didn't end up floating around the house or car for my Dh to have to find or look at.

I would think it'd be worth more to him as $200 cash than it is as a reminder of a marriage failed floating around with screws & spare change for his wife to have to look at.

I could see him wanting to keep it for a child, but with more than one child, how would he determine which one to give it to? Also, it seems if he's looking to sell it, the sentiment for the kids isn't really there anyway.

I'd go for the $200 & be done with it.

My DH's wedding ring from BM....when I moved in here (well over two years after their divorce was final) and was (uncomfortably) trying to get settled in, in THEIR old house, DH cheerfully announced that he'd "mostly" cleaned out the nightstand on what was to be my side of our bed. There, the top drawer, along with some other clutter, ball point pens, rubber bands, etc., was his wedding ring from BM.
A fit of great hissiness was thrown. Not sure where it is now. Don't care...

Sell it here! http://www.neverlikeditanyway.com/

This site is great, people selling all kinds of stuff from previous relationships.

I had my exH's ring when the divorce was final the next valentines day I returned it told him happy pawning day (its strangely on his keyring as of yesterday when I ran into him at the store) mine are tucked away to be remade into a necklace of my daughters initals with the stones for her high school graduation. I wouldn't want anyone to wear them as wedding rings they came from a pawn shop and are cursed as far as I'm concerned. My SO and BM never had rings they couldn't afford them and when he could he didn't get them cause she kept kicking him out (9 years of marriage they lived together only a total of 3)
