Not sure if I've just done something terrible. My husband and I have been married for 4 years and he has never worn his wedding ring for the one reason that it was too big (we went ring shopping on a hot day and i think his finger must have swollen up). He has been talking for ages about getting it changed but hasn't done anything about it, and the one time he was serious about doing it about 2 years ago he couldn't find it anywhere.
Anyway I just thought with it being valentines day next week i'd hunt it out and get it resized for him. So at considerable difficulty I tracked it down and went to the jewellers this morning. Howvere when I was there I saw some lovey titanium rings which were much more him than the big chunky gold thing he'd never really liked, and only bought because he was hot and bothered and wanted to get out of the shop. They had the right size then and there so no faffing about getting it sent away. Decided to buy one - all well and good - but then decided he didn't need to have 2 rings so called into the cash for gold shop on my way home and sold his original one (and have made myself a tenner profit!)
I don't think he'll mind. i think he'll really like his new ring and appreciate having one that fits and the thought and all, and also as we are totally skint he'll like that I haven't bankrupted myself. But feeling a bit off about selling the ring we said our vows with. Have I done something terrible???
