Does your DH wear a wedding ring?

[SkiBunnyFlummy]

If you have a DH of course.

Do you mind if he does or not.

We are getting married this summer and my DF (? hee hee ) doesn't fancy wearing one as he already wears a signet ring (currently lost actually) and his dad doesn't wear one.

I'm not sure if I care or not. In some respects I think it might make him think twice before he stepped outside our marriage vows. Or it might put single chicks off - but then some singlies target married men don't they.

I'm not paranoid but he is a good looking bloke. well primarily he is a bloke so there is bound to be some temptation during a marriage.

YES!! i've had to take mine off because of swollen fingers but DH has never taken his off ...

he better not take it off ..

Yes - if you look closely at our wedding rings you will see that they are engraved with a ball and chain .

Cod - no - Mr Aloha doesn't either, for the same reason as Mr Twiglett - hates jewellery.

Mine does, only take it off when operating.

My dad didn't so I think they still look a little odd on men. Not sure I would wear one. Wouldn't expect him to wear one. Would prefer just a normal nice ring, not weddingy.

I hate engagement rings though.

We both do. He's never taken his off but I threw mine at him once in an argument

My dh wasn't keen at first but we went shopping for them one day and as soon as the shop assistant said they would have to make one up for him he got all giddy??!!
He really likes it though, he says "it's manly"!!!

Whatever that means!

my dh wears his wedding ring every day and never takes it off. i took mine off ehrn pregnant with ds2 and have never been able to get it back on so not bothered! plus not allowed to wear my engagement ring for work (student midwife, so you can imagine why!) and wedding ring looks silly without it as they match.
dh not happy about this at all and sya who am i trying to attract. don't know where he thinks i'll meet all these men as not many male midwifes about and doctors all about 50!

My DH wears one.

I think it is very sexy!!

Does anyone honestly think wearing a wedding ring would stop a man being unfaithful though?

I was thinking of one of those James Bond type wedding rings whereby if his hands started to wander on unknown woman sharp pins ejected from the interior circle of the ring into the finger causing excruciating pain and wearer to collapse on floor sobbing like a baby.

Lockets, I'm referring to the original poster's question.

Me too! esp as they are detatchable!

DH does wear a wedding ring because he wants to and so do I. Although when I was younger I said that if I ever got married I wouldn't wear a ring and I wouldn't change my name. I have done both! I like the idea of the ring being a symbol of committment....and others seeing the ring as being committed - an outward display I guess.

They are also useful for throwing at DH for dramatic effect during an arguement!

cod lol at yr dh looking like liberace!
How does he look marrie, exactly???
BTW yes to the original question, bit surprising as he is not a jewellery fan and nor am I on men. apart from wedding rings and watches I guess.

My dh does (and I do too). Its the only piece of jewellery apart from his watch. I think they look really nice on a man. Although this is his second, he lost the first on a beach in Ibiza due to losing a lot of weight and not getting the ring changed! (actually his third cos he was married before - that ring went in the bin).

Mine does - I think would've been upset if he hadn't. A good friend of ours made our rings for us and we both love them. He'd feel odd without it even though he's never worn rings before.

When we were first married he was in a band and would often go on tour for months at a time and I liked the fact that groupies would be able to see that he was married.

SBF - will DH replace his signet ring if it doesn't turn up?

cod

mine does and woe be tide him if he looses it or comes home with it off, I don't mind if he takes it off at work cos he works with engines so i'd rather that than him rip his finger off! I had it on my chain for the first part of his tour but he's takenm it back with him now. he also has an engagement ring he wears and a watch, i'm not as bothered if he looses the engagement ring thou.

I grew up thinking men didn't wear wedding rings, because my dad didn't have one. Eventually discovered he did have one, but it wasn't big enough anymore. He must have had it made bigger at some point because he's been wearing it again for years and years now.

Dh wears a wedding ring. Unfortunately, the rose gold ring we chose together in Glasgow was stolen when my house was burgled 3 days before our wedding . FIL went to the shop we'd bought it from, and bought what dh is adamant is the women's version of his original ring. He still wears it.

i just don't understand why , if women are expected to wear ne, why men shouldn't too
