I agree with MO3. The answer is whatever the right choice for YOU is.

Retain faith that you will prevail in the end, regardless of the difficulties and at the same time confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.

oops- didn't see the q about the red carnation. It represents the beginning of your relationship with stbxw right?

Of course.

I say wear the carnation if it feels like closing the circle to you. It seems like closure is pretty hard to come by so if that helps, do it.

The red carnation symbolized the beginning of the relationship...

Choose a different flower/color to symbolize your new beginning now...

She would probably see the red carnation as a last ditch attempt at you trying to prove once again how much she is losing/lost/can't live without etc...

Thank you all.

On my way home from my new GAL gym, I realized there could be any number of incorrect conclusions and intentions she could - and would -draw from my wearing any flower and it would be completely out of my control.

So, I decided to wear my dignity tomorrow.

Thanks for taking the time and for the food for thought.

Dignity and your best underwear.

Oops--nicest undies applies to women making themselves feel better--does the same apply to men?

My heart will be with you tomorrow.

dignity and grace, full speed ahead.
