I hate wearing anything on my hands, gloves, rings, watches, etc. Also, I worked with tools a lot. So, I didn’t wear mine most of the time, only during special occasions. My wife was the same.
Actually, my wife preferred I didn’t wear my ring, because I got hit on more when I had it on. She saw it happen.
My skin is an asshole and the ring didn’t help. After some days it started itching and peeling and I just wore it on special occasions afterwards.
We’re divorced now, but I kept it out in the open, because it reminds me of the good times we had together. And we had a lot.
Yes and yes. We got custom made, one of a kind rings made by a local family-run jeweler. The rings have a wood grain pattern in them, with my wife’s ring shaped like a branch holding a green sapphire. Pretty freaking cool. I only ever take it off if I’m on a job site that bans jewelry for safety reasons.
I can’t stand metal ones but I wear my silicone one close to 24/7 just taking it off it give it a thouruogh clean in the shower.
Yes and I always wear it all the time except when I make pizza
except when I make pizza
Man, I thought I was up on the current slang, but this one is new to me!
Single af myself, but my parents are still married and always have their wedding rings on. I’m not even sure I’ve ever seen them without them. Not even sure if they could even remove them anymore.
Yes I have a cheapie tungsten carbide ring from a well-known online retailer. I’ve had to replace it once after several years of minor nicks and scratches. I get lots of compliments on it! I only take it off when I have to wear gloves for work.
tungsten carbide
nicks and scratches
How confident are you on that first point?
It’s the superficial coloring layers that get scratched or faded over the course of years. Hence the need for a new one. So yes I’m confident the ring is tungsten carbide.
I have a ring and I always wear it unless there is a specific activity I shouldn’t. Certain messy or risky tasks I will take it off. I sometimes take it off while chilling in bed but put it back on when I sleep.
I have one, but hate the feeling of wearing it so never wore it after the honeymoon. It is some really durable metal (maybe titanium?) and has been on my keyring for the last two decades so it has always been with me, just not on a finger.
To be honest if we end up getting divorced it will probably stay on the keychain.
Neither of us do. We stopped after the first year or so since neither of us like rings.
Same here. It was just annoying
Yup
We each got 2 actually. Nice ones for normal occasions and silicone ones for adventures. I don’t wear mine to bed, the skin underneath gets all wrinkly and irritated. I put it on as part of getting dressed. So lazy weekends I hardly wear it at all but most days I do.
Wore mine for about the first 10 years. Always catching it on something and needing expensive repairs. I’m not a jewellery person otherwise so eventually I quit wearing it except special occasions. It’s been another 25 years and no one asks. If I meet someone new the first things they learn about me are my husband and kids - no ring needed. I got hit on more when I wore my wedding ring than I do now but that may simply be an age thing. My husband continued to wear his but in the last few years has worn it less, mainly because he has new hobbies where it could be a danger and then he forgets to put it back on. He wears a family ring and an engineers ring as well so he is more accustomed to wearing rings. Only one who bugs me about it is my SIL. She’s angling for another ring and my BIL points out that I don’t wear one, let alone have 3 different sets.
We picked out rings for our wedding, and wore them for the most part for the first couple years. We both worked at jobs where we couldn’t wear them, and I work with my hands a lot at home so mine would come off there too. I haven’t bothered putting it back on in years; my wife started wearing the silicone bands which are cheap and comfortable for her. Ring or not, married all the same after 20 years.
My partner and I wear silicon rings. We started out with regular rings, but we both ended up having sensory issues - mine was a giant heavy tungsten ring and theirs had too many sharp edges. I lost my massive ring and bought a silicon ring to wear while I looked for it. Never did find it but I loved the feel of silicon so much I bought my partner a set to wear too. We’ve been wearing them ever since, probably 10 years now. Highly recommend.
Yes, and yes.
At this point my wedding ring feels like a part of me. When I take it off and especially if I hand it to someday else that feels weird and alarming.
