we don't wear our wedding ring anymore

If he truely isn't wearing it because it doesn't fit him, then by all means, get it resized. After I had my kids, I had to get my rings resized. It isn't that expensive. I know many men who don't wear their rings because it bothers them while working. It depends on what kind of work your husband does, but this may also be a factor. Explain to your husband the importance of wearing the rings and how you feel. I bet he doesn't even realize this is bothering you.

My dad's wedding ring do not fit anymore too... It's been two years now... My dad wanted to make it bigger at the shop but my mom wouldn't it disturbed it. She wanted it as it is the day they were wed, so my mom suggested to buy a chain so my dad could hang the wedding ring in the chain as in Necklace.

Well the only thing i have to ask you is this - if you husband's finger got too big for the ring, what stopped either of you from taking it to a jeweller to have it made bigger? My Dad had to do the same thing coz as he got older the ring got too tight, they took it in, had it widened & now everything is fine. Maybe for his next b'day or an anniversary gift you could have it made bigger & give it back to him - it's not expensive & would be a special gift that i'm sure would mean a lot to him. Put yours back on & then have his fixed so he can have his back on as well!

Well, I must say I think that's all pretty silly. I can think of a lot of reasons NOT to wear a ring. My father never wore his because he worked in a machine shop. Not only could it have gotten caught on something and torn his finger out, it also would have collected the grease/grime of a shop. Can't imagine that being good for the ring. Then I myself want to get into law enforcement. I certainly don't plan on wearing a wedding ring to work if I'm in corrections. The last thing I would want a criminal to know is that I have a wife. If he's ok with not wearing it, why should you stop wearing yours? If he's unhappy that his doesn't fit, then it's time to consider one of two options. 1-he needs to lose weight so it can fit again, and 2-GET IT RESIZED so it fits him again.

im not yet married but all my brothers are. they dont wear their wedding ring. my sisters-in-law wear them but they always take it off. i guess they dont mind it if their husbands dont wear their wedding rings. but if im in your situation, i would insist to have the ring fixed so it would fit then insist on wearing it. i wont wear mine until he wears his.

I wear my ring at all time. And I expect my husband to wear his, too. If your husband's ring doesn't fit him, yeah go to the jewel shop and have it repaired. Show it to your husband and you wear the ring to his finger. Tell him you want him to wear the ring at all times because it matters so much to you. Remember, conversation plays a vital role in a relationship. And usually pride plays a vital role in ruining it.

i dont wear my wedding ring also but for not other reason but because it doesnt fit my finger anymore the same with my husband. we are thinking if we are going to resize it or buy a new one. wedding ring for me is a symbol of our love and commitment so be proud in wearing it, your husband has a reason for not wearing it just resize his ring so both of you can wear your rings.

well we all know that pride is the number one enemy in a relationship..well your husband has valid reason why he can't wear his ring anymore,but that doesn't mean you have to stop wearing it too.and wearing it doesnt mean you're the weaker person or something.it just shows how much you love your husband,and he'll appreciate that..i know he will..so go on wear it once again.and find means in making him wear his again,like have the ring resized,to become bigger and fit his finger..well good luck to you!

why don't you bring your husband's ring to the jewelry shop for a repair. he might be wanting to wear his but doesn't have the time for the repair. my husband's ring doesn't fit too! but i still wear my ring everyday. this is my most precious possession and i value it so much. he still wants to wear his ring but we have to resize it first. forget about the pride girl. your only hurting yourself. your husband has a reason for not wearing his ring and you dont :)

I too don't wear my wedding ring because I am allergic to wear any thing in my finger.I wear it occasionally.MY wife wear her wedding ring.Don't make it a issue.Just go and repair your husband ring.

i dont think its a matter of "fair" or not. even if my husband didnt wear his, i would keep on wearing mine. it would symbolize to me how much our marriage means to me. it would upset me if my husband didnt keep wearing his. if his excuse was that it was too small or bent out of shape or something, i would ask him to go get it fixed, or i would take it in myself. if he still didnt want to wear it, i would start to wonder and question what his real reason for not wearing it was. i would just ask him straight out also. but i wouldnt stop wearing my ring just becuase he stoped wearing his, it doesnt fix or solve anything, but thats just my opinion.

Some couples don't like wearing their rings due to some reasons.But my husband and I have always worn our wedding rings. We never takes our rings off. We wear it because to me, it's a symbol of our love and commitment to each other. A ring certainly doesn't make a marriage but if you have one you should be proudly wearing it...Maybe you should have to resize your husband's ring for him to wear it...

Me and my husband too... Even right after we are married we do not wear our wedding ring, its not because they are not important to us but because its not our size because they only give it to us. Maybe when i have money i will put it in a shop where they can repair it on our size.

I fully understand you, but I also agree Sunshine4's opinion. speak out what's your thought to your husband, I believe he can solve it easy.

It's the not the ring that binds you together, it's your commitment to each other than binds you. Why not have his ring resized as a gift? Let him know that you like it when he wears it. Maybe he will wear on it special occasions? You might consider the fact that your wedding ring is a symbol to all the men in the world that you are married, and therefore you're off limits. There is nothing scarier than being hit on in public for no good reason.

Why don't you take your husband's ring to a repairer as I am sure you could get his wedding ring resized so that it would fit him, me and my husband always have our wedding rings on and are very proud to wear them. Well I think that you should not feel this way it is how you feel inside your own heart and if you are proud that you did marry your husband whether your husband wears his or not.

Yeah after i was married for a few years i took mine off too. I had gained some weight and it hurt to wear. After it fit again i was so used to having it off that I never put them on again. My husband never had wedding rings because we couldn't afford them. I still have my rings even though I am no longer married.

Well my hubby lost his a few years back and we haven't got around to getting him another one. I still wear mine regardless of whether he does or not. It not only binds us together, it shows everyone else I'm forever taken LOL

You can think in a positive way - wearing your husband ring can also be a rememberance of your ceased husband - Think in that angle With best regards
