She knows how much her EA has hurt me and how much her not wearing her ring stings.
In fact, we bought her a new ring right after Christmas so she wouldn't have to go back to the "old ring and the old marriage." At that time, I told her I would have no problem with her buying a new ring, but I want her to be proud to wear it. I let her know that there would be no use buying it if she wasn't proud to wear it as my wife.
We bought it and it is now back in the box in her dresser.
I'm really thinking of taking my ring off as well. I don't want to return to my old marriage either and I may need to remove the ring to help me remember where I've been and where I'm going.
