When Do You Take Off the Wedding Ring?

I took mine off the minute I found out my husband was cheating. The divorce was a couple months later. I made a "divorce box" for my daughter. I contains my rings with original box and purchase paperwork, marriage license, wedding photos, and first Christmas ornaments,etc. I figure someday she and future generations might appreciate it.

I always take my one off as soon as i start working with tools / machines...

It is just a symbol for love and should not be overrated.. as such it is only a piece of metal...

I always prefer to loose the ring rather than loosig what it stands for...

I take mine off when I use lotion just because I don't like the feel of lotion stuck under my ring. I remove it when I'm swimming or something with a similar probability of it falling off, but I put it on my necklace. I don't have a particular attachment to the ring itself, but it means a lot to my husband that I make an effort to make it special.

I took mine off after I had confronted my husband of 3 months about his cheating and he refused to stop. That morning, he was going to a local church with the woman he was having an affair with, and I tried to get him to take my rings with him to the church to help him remember what he was giving up. He wouldn't take them. A week later I told him to leave, and the rings went back to their gift boxes for about a year. In the end, I sold them to a friend and used the money to go to the beach for a weekend. I have no idea what he did with his ring.

Hmmmm, the world's shortest article and still it seems a few folks here didn't actually read it.
