{{{Beth}}} My dear friend....UGH that you are having that kind of day and then a "well meaning outsider" with her 2 cents as well..just remember..people's 2 cents won't buy anything nowadays..so take what you can from it and toss the rest out..in this case..toss it all out
As far as the rings go..you know..it's funny cause really I'm of the mindset like in the movie Fireproof..the rings MEAN something to me and to my marriage (tho I really need to get my ring fixed because I lost my big stone out of it..so it looks kinda crummy..LOL..like my marriage looks right now I suppose), BUT, by the same token, what you said about NOT wanting that same marriage..and when we DO reconcile..I want different rings and a new ceremony..so..at some point do I take this off as a "symbol" of the death of the old marriage while waiting for the new one..geez..I dunno but something to think about for sure
To wrap up MY rambling LOL..I think Alex is definitely right, and I remember reading the "ring or no ring" discussion too, it is such a personal, individual decision that you'll know when to, if at all, and not by what anyone else says about it
Well I can't wait to hear on Saturday if you decide to do something different..woo hoo
