To ask, do you/OH wear a wedding ring?

[HildaZelda]

Just curious really.

My rings are gold which was fashionable at the time, but I don't particularly like them now as almost all the rest of my jewellery is silver. (I did look into getting them dipped, but the setting of the stones means it would be very awkward) So whether or not I wear them depends on what else I'm wearing. I do wear them sometimes but it's hit and miss. Probably 50/50 I'd say.
I don't wear them to work or the gym (safety reasons) but will almost always wear them on a night out.

MIL CONSTANTLY comments on it, so much so that I've taken to deliberately NOT wearing them around her, I know it's childish but as far as I'm concerned, it's none of her business anyway.

DH always wears his ring. He's not bothered whether I do or not and if he didn't wear one it wouldn't bother me either.

Just wondering whether people wear them always or whether, like me, they come on and off?

I do, but it's comfy so I'm unaware of it. If it wasn't, I wouldn't. After a decade of marriage, who cares really?

I do. White gold. As does dh. Dh takes his off if swimming because his fingers shrink in cold and he once nearly lost it. Need a hacksaw to get mine off

I wear Mine all the time. There have been a few occasions where the metal has irritated my finger as i have Sensitive skin so i took it off for a few days. My husband doesn’t wear his at all as he hates jewellery. I’m not bothered that he doesn’t wear his and he wouldn’t be bothered if i didnt Wear mine.

No. Neither of us wear a ring.
Don't understand why anyone does tbh.

Both DH and I do.

DH has been married before. He didn't wear a ring then however.

I can't wear them for work, so don't wear them Monday to Friday and sometimes don't put them on at the weekends, as I forget! My DH has a cheap ring he wears at work and switches to his proper ring at the weekend. I don't think it really matters, their a symbol, we're still married whether their on or off.

Although if I didn't have to take them off for work, I would wear them all the time.

My engagement and wedding ring never come off. My dh had to take his off for work and in the first month of marriage one of the kids moved it from the kitchen window and lost it. Never bothered buying another as he cant wear it for work anyway. He has said a few times about getting a new one but just never got round to it.

Both do. Love mine. They’re white gold.

Yes we wear ours every day.

Yes, we both do. Only take it off for gardening or washing up.

If you wanted to wear a ring, your DH could buy you one for eg birthday/Christmas which suits your style. Doesn't have to be a traditional wedding band. If you don't want to wear a ring, then ignore that obviousl.y

I do, DH doesn't. He bought one, wore it on our wedding day, then never again. To be fair, it looked nicer in the jewelers than on his finger. He doesn't wear any jewellery, not even a watch. My ring is white gold, plain, with a tiny chip of diamond on one side.

No we don’t. I don’t becasue I got mugged a few years ago and I have been paranoid ever since, husband doesn’t because he’s just not used to it. We use it when we both go out together though. He’s thinking of getting a cheaper ring to use round the house but I think that’s a waste of money!

Neither me or dh do. Mine are really big on me now and dh's has gone a bit loose too. I don't even think about it now, just a bit of jewellery isn't it? Doesn't mean we feel any different about each other

I rarely wear mine, I don't wear them for work for fear of damaging them and I don't bother wearing them in days off because they're hidden away.
I tend to only wear them if we're going somewhere fancy!
DH on the other had never takes his off.

Not married yet, but I will wear my ring, stbdh won’t, he can’t really wear it at his job so probably won’t bother at all. He’ll wear his Dad’s wedding ring for the actual ceremony then put it away. His dad doesn’t wear it either.

We both do. My wedding, engagement and eternity rings are all yellow gold but I mix gold and silver so I don't worry about it.

No. Neither of us wear them. Both in a job where you'd have to remove them regularly but actually we don't wear watches, I don't even have my ears pierced so not jewelry type people anyway. DH recently told me his team (all woman) had told him it was very bad of him not to wear one as it would show he was 'taken'.

I do, mine are white gold
Dh, who also has a white gold band, only wears his when he is home. He could be badly injured wearing jewelry at work.

I do most of the time (when I don't forget to put it on in the morning) - just a white gold eternity ring. My husband doesn't. He has fingers with joints that are very big, so any ring would then be far too big on his finger. It doesn't bother me in the slightest that he doesn't.

I wear mine sometimes (although not the one I actually got married with). DH doesn't have one.

Cant see why it's important whether you wear them or not, I'm no more married when I wear it than when I don't!

I don’t because I work with electricity. Husband does. I will wear it if we’re going out together though.

I do (didn’t realise gold was out of fashion). DH doesn’t wear any jewellery at all, wedding ring included.

Neither of us wear rings. We have them but husband can't for his work and I'm not into wearing jewellery so we just dont see the point for us. The only people who have ever commented on it have been people who dont know us well although to be fair I've never had anyone comment negatively on it, just ask why we dont.

Yes, platinum bands - I wear my engagement ring next to it as they were made to fit together.

DH also yes, his is palladium.

I take mine off when I go to bed as I cover my hands with cream and my wedding ring is diamond set. I always put it on after I’ve put my lotion on after my shower though.

DH doesn’t have a wedding ring so.....
