to be bloody furious at DH for losing his wedding ring today

[yogimum]

i just wish he would take it off when working outside.

Well said OJ

Flame, when mine was too tight during the last weeks of my pregnancies I wore it on chain round my neck, the only times it's been off my finger.

thanks marina, if we had been married for years it wouldn't bother me. He goes back to work on Monday for 4 months so won't get a replacement in time. I'll ring the insurance company on Monday.

It happens; DH lost his and I bought him another as an anniverasy present - a size smaller. He hasn't lost that!

i feel really sorry for him its not as if he threw it into the wind never to be seen again he lost it by accident doesnt warrent being treated bad

if you lost yours by accident which could happen one day woulod you want to be treated so bad

for better and for worse he lost it didnt sell it didnt take it off and leave it somewhere because it means nothing he was working and it came off

cook him some dinner snuggle up tewll him you love him and that you will replace it for x mas my mum lost hers my dad felt sorry for her as he knew hoew upset she was he bought her new one for her b day stop being mean treat him how you would want to be treated if you lost yours through no fault of your own

My wedding and engagement rings meant a lot to me and when I couldn't wear them I was gutted. (obviously they still do!!) When the baby was 1 they still wouldn't fit but the thought of having them cut to be resized really upset me. Hubby pointed out to me I was just as upset at not being able to wear them. Had them resized and I never think about the fact they aren't exactly as they were when we got married.

Give him a break. Believe me, you will go through worse things in your married life!

Dh lost his about a month after we got married

He was devastated, but it didn't bother me at all. We just went and got another one, the ring wasn't an expensive one anyway.

What's important with a symbolic ring is what it symbolizes, not the ring itself.

At least he bothered to marry you, I've been with my dp almost 6yrs and we can't afford to get married and even if we could I don't know if he would want to. (he's a great partner and father but just doesn't want to be labelled as a husband for some strange reason!)

lovemygirls, when I fell pregnant his mother said "does this mean you two are getting married",

have you cuddled the poor guy yet yogimum?

His mum said that and he said no, we cant affor dit with a baby on the way (and to be fair i did want a baby more than i wanted a wedding lol)

please cook him some dinner! these things happen, that's what insurance is for

me and dh have both lost our wedding rings-actually losing mine was worse because it belonged to dh's granny . he didn't give me a hard time though...

dropdeadfred, yes just have. Sent him out to get fish and chips and a bottle of vino.

My dh doesn't even have a wedding ring. Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

I lost my engagement ring for 3 years

Dh wanted to buy me a new one but I wouldn't let him as the first one meant a lot to us. He had been an apprentice builder earning £75 a week when we got engaged.

We picked the ring out about 4 months before we were able to buy it.. I loved it. It is a created sapphire with diamonds surrounding it & the shoulders are twisted.

I finally found it by accident when I was clearing out my sock drawer!!!! Imagine! 3 years later!!!

it was an accident, it's not like he threw it away or anything! I'm sure he feels bad enough without you huffing & not cooking his dinner!!

I'm not huffing anymore

it does happen- we have been married 2.4yrs and dh lost his first wedding ring in the car and it fell into one of the air vent things never to be seen again so he is on a replacement ring, and i have put a bit of weight on since we married and it took me 10mins to squeeze my ring off my finger with a whole bottle of fairy last week so i can have it made bigger.....though saying that we did have to have it made smaller before the wedding as i needed a kids size and they didn't do it so small!!! (and little did i know i'd get fat fingers 2 years later!!)

though we also just have cheapy rings at about £40 each......and we STILL havent had our honeymoon we are so poor!!! haha!!

well i've told him he doesn't need to wear one.

DH left his in the Mothercare baby-change room whn dd was little. He took it off to wash his hands, put it on the side while drying his hands and the hand dryer was so loud it started two tiny twins in the room screaming so he beat a hasty retreat, apologising profusely and leaving his ring there.

Got home, pondered where it could be for hours then on the off chance, rang Mothercare and lo and behold, the father of the screaming twins had handed it on.

He still feels guilty when he thinks about it now, I didn't care, except that I never thought I'd get him to buy another one!

Yes, rings are special, but so is your husband. It may still turn up, if not you get to go ring shopping again - it's a win-win situation!

now perusing the new tiffany catalogue which arrived this morning

YABU. It was an accident. I never take my wedding ring off.

ordered a new one from tiffany x
