Lost my engagement and wedding ring

[Escapetothecounty]

And it's bumming me out. Took them off as I got petrol on my hand, put them safely in my purse and subsequently lost said purse. It happened on a cross-country journey and I've called everywhere we visited but no luck.

I know they're just things, and they should be covered under our home insurance but my hand feels so naked. DH designed my engagement ring and I really loved it.

There's other way more important things going on in my life (trying to buy/sell house, grandparent on end of life care) so I feel like I should be able to see the bigger picture, just wish I could shake off the sadness.

Anyone else not wearing their original rings? (DH is already on his second wedding ring, first is somewhere off the coast of France lost within 6 months of marriage...)

Ah, that's shit. Of course you're bothered by it.

It's a long story, but I have had all new engagement and wedding rings. I love my second set (same marriage!) much more.

Maybe your DH could design a new engagement ring?

Have you appealed on Facebook? I see lots of personal items reunited on social media.

Thanks @JuneOsborne, glad to hear you love your new set!

I hadn't thought about Facebook, but where would I post it? I'm not in any groups local to where it's probably been lost and not sure if my friends list would spread it far enough to be of any use.

Post in the location it was lost. The Ramblers if is a walking route. Dog owners in that area.
Lost and found groups in that area etc
Type the area in that search and find all the relevant groups.
