I am lavaliered and wear that necklace almost all the time...though sometimes switch it for my own. My boyfriend isn't terribly happy about this, but I don't feel right wearing them on the same chain. I try to treat his as well as I treat mine. They are his letters, not mine, and he was kind enough to give them to me as a gift to a) make me quit hinting and b)find a way to show people how he feels without spending an ungodly amount on a promise ring or something...which we both feel is stupid. I think the only time it is appropriate to wear a guy's letters are...a) if you are a sweetheart and were given specific sweetheart "gear" to wear b)if the letters are on a shirt that anyone could have purchased (formal, parties, philanthropy event) c) if you are lavaliered (or given a badge because you are a mother, wife, sister, etc.). Otherwise it's disrespectful. It isn't a huge problem on our campus, but it happens...it's not cool.
