My ex gave me a few fake flowers because he use to say real flowers would die so he went with the fakes. Anyway I still have a few of those fake flowers and wanted to give a few of them to the new guy I am seeing, but then part of me says not to do that because my ex gave it to them and it would be wrong to give it to the new guy but then again my ex is history haha. What would you do?

Donate the flowers to goodwill and don't be so cheap or creepy. Seriously, giving a gift to a new guy that was a gift to you from the old guy? Regifting is so tacky.

I agree with this. Giving someone something used comes off tacky. It'd be like if a guy bought a wedding ring for a woman, but it didn't work out. So he ends up giving his ex's ring to a new fiance. Totally bad taste when he cared enough to buy his ex a ring and picked something out in accordance with her taste, now for the new woman, he'll just give her something used/leftover.
Happened on an episode of All in the Family when Mike says a good poem to Gloria, only to find out the poem was originally written for Vicky and Vicky's body.
It's fine if you wanted to keep the flowers for sentimental reasons. But don't give them to a current boyfriend when you got them from another guy. Wanna give him something? Give him something from your heart that you put thought into, not something lying around that was another man's thought to you.
First word that came to my mind was "tacky".
The purpose of giving a "gift" to someone is that you took your time and chose that special something for that special someone. I remember getting a couple of gifts from my Grandma when I was little. She forgot to take off the tags where someone had given them to her. It hurt me. When I was a little older, I realized that maybe my Grandma didn't have much money and she really didn't need the gift she received and she thought I would like it. I got over it. However, if I ever found out that a boyfriend gave me something one of his ex-girlfriends gave to him, I would be very hurt at first...then I would regift the regift back to him and tell him where he could "put" them.
