Hummmmm........the "ring thing". Well, actually I was very young and very thin when I received my wedding ring and the fact is that after all these years, it is too small for me..... I kept meaning to have it enlarged, but just got out of the habit of wearing it. I have never been a "ring" person like a lot of women are. In fact, I don't wear much jewelery at all. The same thing with my H. He caught his ring on something at work once and nearly ripped his finger off, so he stopped wearing his. Of course, he's gained weight and would have to have it enlarged. But, we just got out of the habit and really don't think anything about it anymore. Maybe other people notice, but it doesn't cross my mind.
However, I do know from posts of the men here on the board that it is a tender subject for them when their wife has been involved in an affair and has stopped wearing her rings. It is a hard question to answer b/c I think it would depend on the individual person so much. But my advice to the men would be not to say one word about her not wearing her rings. When she gets ready......she will do it. Her reasons may be deep or they may be as simple as mine are. Probably not.....but who knows. Let me ask this question to both of you men who have brought the subject of rings up........is your W wearing any other ring on her hands? If there are no rings at all, then maybe she is just not a "ring person". But if there are rings on nearly every finger....then, I would certainly say it is b/c she does not want to wear the wedding ring....period! Does she wear a different ring on the finger her wedding ring would go on? Do you think there is a chance that she has gone so long without wearing it that she hasn't thought about it? Am I putting wishful thoughts out here?
BTW, Stuck, I think the card on Nuses Day was a good idea! See how she responds (or not) and then you will have a better idea about the show.
Well, I wasn't very helpful. Sorry about that. I find it interesting, though, that more LBH bring up the subject of the wedding rings then the LBW do. Wonder why that is?
Talk to you later, Sandi
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
