I remember someone (maybe Steve?) mentioning there are several benefits to keep the ring on. Would someone be willing to share these with me?


To me it's a matter of principle. You are married, you should wear the symbol of that marriage until such a time that you are no longer married. She is breaking her vows but that doesn't mean you should too. Also it shows others, her included, that you are standing for your marriage.

Finally, it will avoid unwanted attention from the opposite sex. If there is anything worse than relationship issues it is having issues with two relationships! And if you're not ready to move on to another R, and right now you're not, a new R can only result in more issues.
