Would you think it's weird to still wear your wedding/eternity ring after the divorce? (Not on the ring finger, but your middle finger) I don’t hate my ex, we just weren’t meant to be.
Would this freak a guy out? –Make him think you have unresolved issues

I was married for a year. He ended it, but I’m not the innocent victim. Marriage is a two way street and I have my share of blame.
The ring is stunning, and I feel it’s a waste to lock it up in a safe. (I don’t have any children, keeping it as a gift for them is not an option)

I think you do have unresolved issues. Why would you want to wear your wedding ring if you were divorced? It does not make any sense except for the fact that you really dont want to be divorced. I believe any man would think you had unresolved issues.

it would freak out most guys yes , and it does show that you have issues.Its obvious you carry some hidden feelings for this man and it would be unfair for anyone new to have or want to deal with it. Put the ring in your jewelry box as a remembrence maybe. Better yet pawn the thing and move on, you do have memories,you don't need a physical reminder,much less have a new bf be reminded that you loved someone else and still wear the token he gave to you to show that love .

The ring is supposed to be symbolic to the commitment. If you still wear it I would think one of 2 things:
1. You are still attached.
OR
2. You were never attached and the ring and your wedding was nothing more than a novelty.

Freak out? No. Unresolved issues? Yes. Remove the ring or return it, or whatever. But don't wear it.

I would take the ring to a jeweler and have it redone into a different setting---revamp it ----turn it into something that has only meaning to you.
Wearing it even on the middle finger clearly shows you have baggage and unresolved issues regarding your divorce!

It might look like you haven't let go of the past. If it is a nice ring though you could wear it and just not say it is your wedding ring, just say it is dress ring they might not notice if it is not on the wedding finger.

i am not married but i think the essence of the wedding ring is for people to know you are no more available. if you are divorced, you dont have to be wearing the ring. wearing it on the middle finger means you are engaged to someone.

I agree that it should be written up in the papers as items to be returned. Because it's a family heirloom, he can actually claim it as personal property. It would be like him keeping her grandmother's china or crystal. Ask her how she'd like to part with something as precious.

Have the ring remade into something that doesn't look like a wedding ring ...take it to a jeweler and they will give you some ideas.....

Yes. You do have unresolved issues. You broke off the relationship? Or did he?
