Wow, the whole wedding ring thing. I just put mine on by myself this week. They came back from the jewelers and I didn't put them back on for about a month. But it wasn't fair to my H because I didn't let him know why I wasn't wearing them. I wasn't wearing them for exactly the reason you stated to your H in that "they are a symbol of his love and when he's ready to give it then please give them back to me". I wish I had it in me at the time to not avoid the confrontation and to tell him the same thing you told your H.
Best of luck to you.

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
