[color:"red"] [/color] Sorry the first post didn't come up. I still have my old wedding rings from a previous marriage. I had been saving them to give to my daughter when she gets older. My fiance is angry about my decision. He feels that wedding rings symbolize love between two people and I am divorced from her father. My ex husband doesn't spend any time with our daughter and only calls once or twice a year. So my fiance has stepped in as her father. I can understand his point but I thought since my ex doesn't spend any time with her, so would appreciate having something that came from him. My fiance feels that she will not want it because when she gets older, she will realize that her father wasn't there for her. I feel like he is being stubborn because of his dislike for my ex. Should I keep the rings or get rid of them?

I can see both views on this. Have you ever had an affir on your fiance? If so, was it with your Ex? Do you still have feelings for your Ex? How old is your daughter?

I have never cheated on my fiance. My ex hasn't been around for five years. My daugher is eleven. I am not still in love with my ex. My fiance feels that he is my daughter's father and I shouldn't want to give her anything from her biological father because he is not around. But my daughter gets so excited when her father calls once a year, I just don't want her to feel bad that he is not giving her the time of day.
