If the divorce goes through, will you take it off, and if so, at what point?
There are a few people on this site who wear their rings though they are actually divorced, and their former spouses have remarried.
and even 1 who still wears the ring, though their ex spouse remarried and even had a child with OM. he says divorce is just a piece of paper...
(NO, I'm Not advocating that, just noting it).
Also, will you wear the ring at mediation?
From a L standpoint, still wearing a ring while in divorce mediation & settlement matters, can look like pursuit AND or denial, or stubborness, or whatever.
Curious--WHY do you want the WAS to know you are wearing it?
If it's just for YOU, then why let them see it?
Anyway, I worry that it puts the LBSer in a position of weakness from the standpoint of property negotiations. The LBSer appears vulnerable
so the WAS seizes the moment...and says "Oh, well, I THOUGHT you wanted things to work out...so why are you fighting me on custody/house/money"?? (IOW They use it against you.) "Give it ALL to me to prove how much you want things to work out..."
it's a lousy thing to do but it does happen. The ring is a symbol, but it's a different symbol to different people.
I just thought I'd mention the legal part. You want to look reasonable and as if you are resigned to their mistake
BUT you are showing yp b/c you care about fairness to YOU
b/c they are NOT looking for that.
MTS, I know you don't have kids to worry about, (YET!!) or becoming homeless. You are fine on your own, which makes you a man coming from a position of strength.
But for others, it might apply. Just mentioning it.
