Would it bother you if your husband never wore his wedding ring?

I wanna know if I’m over reacting. Would it bother you if your husband never wore a wedding ring? Like ever.

Ring or no ring, if he wants to cheat he will. He could wear his ring around you and take it off the moment he leaves. I wouldn’t let that upset you, tbh

I don’t wear mine and my husband does. I work in a school so it gets in the way. Everyone knows that I’m married though. It all depends… is he acting single or saying he’s married?

No. My husband didn’t for a while. He worked in a place that would have been dangerous to wear one, so he switched to a silicone one. That irritated the skin under it, so he went without. He was bothered that he couldn’t wear one so he made the decision to get a tattoo. I personally know only one person that refused to wear a ring, even when the wife asked. We’ll just say the reason he didn’t is for the exact reason most would suspect.

How long have you been married…take yours off for a while, say nothing and see how long it takes him to notice. What kind of work does he do.

Depends on the reason. Has he always been that way? Some people just don’t like rings or can’t stand the feel of them to wear them. Or if he’s in a line of work where it might not be a good idea to wear one. My husband never takes his off so it’s hard to say for sure how I would feel if he didn’t wear it, but I’d like to think that if it was anything like the reasons above that I would understand. With that said, if he just randomly started not wearing it out of the blue for no reason, then that would upset me because it would seem like there was a shady reason behind it.

21 years married and he doesn’t wear it. Lost it once on a job site luckily found it. We have it, but I trust him

My husband lost his ring at work a few years ago. We’ve discussed replacing it, but wearing it to work isn’t super safe, and wearing it 1 day a week seems like a waste. So he just doesn’t wear one. He knows he’s married, I don’t think a piece of jewelry changes that. I’m under the impression that if someone’s going to cheat, a ring won’t change that. It’s not magical, it won’t protect our marriage🤷‍♀️

No, my husband doesn’t wear his and I don’t wear mine. Both because of the types of jobs we do.

Nope. I’ve been married 26 years and my husband doesn’t wear his. He’s got one but prefers not to wear it and I’m OK with it. I don’t wear mine either. We know we are married we don’t need a ring to prove it. We know who we are coming home to.

No, my husband never wears his. Mostly for safety reasons as he is a mechanic.
Wearing a ring doesn’t stop people from sleeping around :woman_shrugging:

My dad never wore his but he worked in excavation. He had a friend who had his finger ripped off by machinery bc of the wedding ring getting caught in it. Extreme scenario, yet there are reasons.
On the other hand, (pun intended) if he’s a tax accountant or something, yes I would be offended.

Mine has never worn one he has dangerous job tho that it could easily get snagged and he would lose a finger or even hand. I’m good with it though we have been married for 29 years without one on his hand.

My husband doesn’t wear his due to safety reasons for our family. Every one knows we are married

I wear mine daily. Even to bed. My husband only wears his if I make him. Like if we go out to dinner. He works 12hr shifts and can’t wear it at work so I get that it’s a pain to put it on just at home. Married 10 years

My husband and I never wear our rings. He works with lots of heavy equipment and I work in a very hands in environment.

It really depends.

My ex husband used to make a joke of wearing his wedding ring, like it meant nothing to him. That bothered me. He was also having an affair.

My now husband, is a construction worker/welder. His profession could lead to serious injury to his hand/finger if his ring gets caught on something or if he gets burnt. I tell him all the time that he doesn’t have to wear his wedding ring. He still wears it daily.

Mine works on machinery and could lose a finger or his whole hand if it were to get stuck in a machine. It doesnt bother me at all. In 13 years he has maybe wore his ring about 8 months.

My dad was a truck driver I don’t think he wore his while on the job because of safety precautions mom wore hers but shouldn’t have, if you know what I mean…

I know lots of faithful, married men who don’t wear rings…. My dad included. My husband wears those silicone rings to work though for safety. Let’s be honest, if a man is going to cheat, the ring won’t make a difference.

No only because I don’t mind cuz I don’t like jewelry And I don’t mine My husband does wear his but if he chose not to I would not be upset at all because I know we’re married and I trust him and I know he’s faithful

Mine doesn’t like to wear his, he has a zillion reasons why. I stopped wearing mine and he asked why. I said, if you don’t need to wear yours, I don’t need to wear mine. He wears his off and on now, it doesn’t bother him if I wear mine or not. I guess everyone’s just different.

Some don’t wear one because of their job. My dad never wore one. He was afraid it would get caught in machinery. No it wouldnt bother me.

My husband wears his when he wants, it doesn’t bother me because I’m still married to him with or without the ring. I still tease him about it though lol. I always wear my ring.

Depends I guess. Would he mind if you didn’t wear yours? Take yours off and see how he acts. :woman_shrugging: i blind people with mine - on purpose :rofl: very dramatic with my left hand movements…looky looky…

Not at all. My husband and I don’t wear rings. We don’t like them. We both don’t care at all.

Nope because mine works in dangerous conditions and can get stuck on something

No it wouldn’t bother meq…some jobs it can be a Hazzard to wear like a welder gold pulls electricity…

A ring is definitely not going to keep him from cheating.

Married 38 years my husband doesn’t even own a wedding ring.

Someone once told me “a ring doesn’t block a hole” If he is going to cheat he will do it whether he wears a ring or not :woman_shrugging:

I don’t wear mine. But only because I have gained weight since we got married and it doesn’t fit anymore. We also don’t have the money to get it re-sized. My husband doesn’t wear his at work because he works construction. If he gets his right caught, then that could be dangerous for his finger/hand. I guess it just depends on your situation.

yes he may not want any woman to know he is married

This totally depends on the reason why! We need details

My husband didn’t wear his because.of the work he did around.metal ever day

I will tell you I was worried that my husband didn’t want people to know he was married… Then when I figured it out With in I leaves WHO GIVES A SHIT. IF HE DOESN’T WANT WOMEN TO KNOW HES MARRIED THATS HIS PROBLEM. soon enough I would figure it out.now… neither of us wear one. Only bc a ring does not dictate our commitment for each other.

I think it depends on the circumstances. For example; if he doesn’t wear it when going out and about on a normal day I’d probably be upset tbh. Even if he just wore a silicone band of some sort vs his normal band. But if he doesn’t wear it to work because he has a hands on job or going to the gym or somewhere it’s like… hard to wear one or a hazard I’d say it’s fine. Like I won’t wear my ring around the house out of fear of losing it or anywhere I feel it could get damaged. But like if I’m going shopping, out for the night with friends, or whatever else Id wear it.

I made it clear that I would never wear any rings before we married. In the Navy they liked to put up gory photos to prove safety rules . One was a finger and all the cartilage pulled out of the arm of a man who jumped off a stake truck. That day after day did it’s job also It was against the rules on my job. Twice in my career we had to send guys really cut up by a ring that they were wearing against rules and insurance and lost time or career were your own responsibility. Women worry only about vane personal needs despite the serious negative effects some petty unimportant can cause to the guy they claim to love.

I know some jobs don’t allow it due to safety concerns. We would need more information to make decision.

I don’t wear mine and my husband wears his. I wear mine when we go out. Never been an issue.

My husband feels naked without his silicone rings( he lost his nice one in the ocean when we were swimming a few years ago) he couldn’t wear his metal one to work really thought. I stopped wearing mine because it’s too big. I’m a stay at home mom so I really don’t go out that much anymore. It doesn’t bother him that I don’t wear mine anymore though.

My dad never had a wedding ring; my parents we’re married until death. My ex didn’t wear his ring much. He liked it (and picked it out) but it was hard to keep clean and I suppose it bothered him. I’m sure he never cheated.

Yes and no. I don’t wear my engagement ring, only my wedding band. But my husband has a job where it could be potentionally dangerous for him to wear a ring. Not to mention we’ve been married under 2 years and he’s lost it 3 or 4 times! I honestly can’t even keep count. Lost it for the first time on our honeymoon litterally days after getting married.

My hubby rarely does because of work. Generally I don’t care but every now and then I’ll throw it his way. Lol

Mine don’t I’ve brought him three.he works for the electric department.been married for 18 years.

No we been married 30 years and I bough a chain and wear his wedding ring as a necklace.

Depends on what his reason for not wearing it is :woman_shrugging:

Neither one of us where ours
