Does your DH wear his wedding ring?

If not, does it bother you? If you aren't married, would it bother you if he didn't?

Re: Does your DH wear his wedding ring?
Yes, H wears his all the time.
We look really young, people around here are judgypants, and I do not enjoy looking like a teen mom. That's part of the reason.
I'd say he wears it 50/50. It doesn't bother me that he forgets to put it on, but it does bother me that he leaves it random places. I keep fishing it out of the dog's mouth. I don't worry for a second that he's either cheating or trying to hide the fact that he's married.
Yes he wears it all the time. But it wouldn't bother me if he didn't.
I never wear mine, I find it super uncomfortable.
I don't need my husband to wear a ring just to know that we are married but I expect it to be worn so everyone else knows he is. Just a little reciprocity. I'd be getting more than a side eye from him if I didn't wear my rings just because.
DH wears his constantly, however last week he took it off to play golf and lost it. It may be somewhere in the house but maybe he put it in his pocket. He is always losing things.
Anyway, he is not wearing a ring now and it sort of bothers me. Maybe we will have to buy a cheap replacement while we are looking for the real one.
Yes he always wears it. He is the one who gets on my case if I accidentally forget it once in a while.
My dad has never worn his ring and over the years he has been hit on many times. Of course he always tells my mom and laughs it off, but IMO I think he should just wear it.
He gave me a hard time about it when we first got married, and tried to tell me he couldn't wear it at work because it might snag on something and put his life in jeopardy. (He's a cop).
Needless I pitched a fit and its like a second skin to him now.
Mine is another story. Since baby they are tighter then they had been pre-baby and sometimes I take them off.
This exactly. I am 22 and DH is 23. I feel like people judge me enough since we are so young, i don't want them to think i am unmarried. I actually had an old lady approach me once and say something along the lines of "a baby with a baby"
This. Though I forget to wear mine at least once a week. I take it off to sleep and sometimes just forget in the craziness of the morning.
DH is an electrician and does not wear his ring 90% of the time and it does not bother me at all. He only ever really wears it if I ask (usually when we are going out for a special occassion). I wear my rings about 80% of the time. When it's hot and my fingers swell, I take them off...other than that, they are usually on...DH could care less if I wear them or not.
This is exactly what DH told me (he's a cop too). Funny how they have the same excuse
I agreed that he didn't have to wear it & it doesn't bother me in the least. Like he told me, if he was going to cheat on me, he would do so, ring or no ring. Every once in a blue moon he'll surprise me & wear it for a special occasion. But I don't feel like it takes away from our marriage that he doesn't wear it. Plus I figure some ladies like to hit on married men specifically, so someone could flirt with him because he had a ring on.
DH wears his all the time, I don't think I have ever seen him with it off. He has a serious tan line from it too.
It would bother me if he didn't wear it, and I think it would bother him if I didn't wear mine.

I already respondend, but this is exactly how I feel. I always take mine off as soon as I get home and I rarely wear it during the weekend.
We don't even have rings. We didn't do ring exchange at our ceremony. No reason really but it doesn't bother us. I do get that jealous feeling when I see my friends get engaged with nice rings but I get over it real quick. I told him I want one at some point but I can't wear jewelery on the job really so I am in no rush.
This exactly.
Nope, doesnt wear one. He can't for work, and he usually forgets on the weekends.
Doesn't bother me. I don't get why it would bother others. A piece of metal doesn't make a marriage, and I've always heard from guy friends/my DH that guys with a ring on get hit on more than those without one. Girls are skanky, and if he wants to cheat he'll do it whether he wears a ring or not.
Luckily I don't need my DH to wear a piece of metal to know he's committed.
