What the heck do I do about my wedding ring? Do I keep wearing it? Do I take it off? My W took her's off before she actually filed the D paperwork months ago. Up until now I have kept mine on... but I'll be honest with you I'm starting to feel a little silly with it on.... I mean why? Now I'm sure that Cadet will jujitsu this question back onto me in someway But I'm curious if taking it off means I'm saying its done. If there is a question of why take it off... again I feel a bit silly with it on, if the other person and what it represents is gone/lost/ checked out right now. Also I can't help but think right now, as I sit across from a pretty woman, taking it off lets me go and talk to her. Am I wrong in this thinking?
Personally I did not take my ring off until maybe 6 months after my divorce, which was just over three years ago. Bomb drop getting close to 6 years ago now.
I think this is a highly personal decision that their is no right or wrong answer.
As far as talking to someone else - thats OK. But I would not start a relationship with someone else until, I was divorced, I had healed from the marriage I was leaving, I looked at myself and really figured some things out.
I doubt you are DONE, just yet. These things all take TIME lots of TIME.
