Fiance's ex: Do you flash your ring around or hide it??

Question

You just got engaged...your fiance surprised you with a huge rock (and everyone has heard about it)...you see one of your fiance's old girlfriends out (with whom he is not on good terms)...

Would you flash your ring around to show it off or want to hide it from her (to keep her guessing)??

Note: "Neither" is not an option. You do not win 10 points.

Game over.

Answer 1

Girl I would flash my ring all over the place!!! My fiance was married before and his ex is a real piece of work. I flash my bling every second I get a chance! She had a good man and she didn't appreciate him and now he is all mine!!! I love flashing mine!!! I would flash it and make her remember what she had and lost and will NEVER get back!!!

Answer 2

To be honest, yeah I'd flash it around.

Answer 3

I would honestly not flash it around or hide it from her. If I happened into a convo (which would never happen as we BOTH have a restraining order against her..don't ask lol) I would just small talk and walk away.  

Answer 4

Well, I would love to say that her opinion wouldn't matter to me - but I would probably have the urge to flash the ring around. Just giving you my honest answer....    =)

Answer 5

this did happen and she flashed it big time while hanging on me...even worse it was at a store and my ex was the cashier....it made me very very uncomfertable...just was an ackward momment...

Answer 6

its pretty unclassy to flash off your ring ...nd besides why flash it off ...most of the time ppl end up seeing a persons ring n.e ways...so...sheel see it nd shell know whts going on between u nd her ex...theres no need to flash ur ring off...it just makes u look like ur not use to having nice things nd it makes u look very in mature

Answer 7

Why are you talking to your fiance's ex? It's pretty juvenile and petty to be flashing anything at her.

Answer 8

shoot well neither was my answer cause there just is no reason - otherwise I would say hide it cause flashing it around will not do anything beneficial

Answer 9

Well, the rock was an heirloom from my father's mom, so it's not like my husband had a choice in the size.

As for flashing it around the ex, I do my best to fly under the radar with her, and we've managed to have 10 years of no ex-wife/new-wife confrontations. I'm sure the kids told her about the ring when they saw it, but I made no secret of the fact that it's an heirloom, not something my husband bought to rub it in her face.

Answer 10

I'd have to say that if my fiance was not on good terms with his ex, why would it matter to her one way or another? Wear your ring like normal and if she sees it fine, if not there's no reason to be an immature brat and shove it in her face! More than likely she isn't going to care anyway - she's not with him anymore you are. Deal with your immaturity before the wedding for both of your sakes!

Answer 11

Who cares?

Wear the ring as you are an engaged woman. If she sees it she sees it, if not, she doesn't.

Its almost as though you're trying to play mind games with her. Why do you care what other people think so much?

Answer 12

I would not go out of my way to hide it, but I would not stick it under her nose either. I would wear it and if she asked to see it I would show it. I would not try and protect her from reality, but I wouldn't be mean just because I could.

Answer 13

She loses. You should wear your ring as an indication of your commitment to him; not be ashamed and hide it, or be spiteful and show it off.  

Answer 14

o shove it in everyones face mostly the exs have fun doing it to you have the man and the ring f**k them all and good luck in the marriage
