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?

My DH wears his all the time. I however can’t wear mine for work and often forget to put it on at other times because of that.
Does not mean we are any less married. And no one has ever commented on it either.

We both do (although DH has a tendency to leave his by a sink after he's taken it off to wash up/shower if in bathroom etc) I've always worn mine on my right hand rather than left as it feels more comfortable there...

I do, DH doesn't as he's lost a lot of weight recently so is worried he'll lose it. One day he might start wearing it again. I'm not bothered though.

I got married February last year and my rings are gold! Always wear them and I have a silver bracelet I wear too, never take the rings or bracelet off except if cooking. You could always buy a new ring if you don't like yours? And also I might change my mind in a few years and get bored of wearing them! It's still exciting for me!
