Married people, do you wear a wedding ring?

[coolred]

Title and poll pretty much say it all.

 

[coolred]

Guys that are wearing a ring, what kind do you have

 

[kranky]

Yep, just a plain gold band.

 

[Aves]

Yes all the time. It's just a simple gold band.

 

[coolred]

Yeah I am just not a fan of gold, I would preferwhite gold, silver, platinum, titanium, something like that. Actually I just saw they have black titanium that lookes sweet although a bit expensive.

 

[vi edit]

I wear a simple titanium band pretty much at all times with the exception of when I work out or do am doing lot of yard work.

For our 5 year anniversary I will probably look into these:

Mokume Rings

They are very cool rings. But they weigh about 10x more than titanium and they cost about 15x as much.

 

[coolred]

Yeah they mokumes are expensive. But nice looking. Is your band standard titanium color? I kind alike the titanium rings, but I think I like the black ones better.

Mines the standard "silver'ish" color. I paid like $90 for it. When I was looking, the gun metal/black ones were around $300-$350.

Some guys just don't like wearing jewelry, be it a wedding ring or anything else. I am not saying I am one of them, I am just saying some guys don't like jewelry. And I would say that if all I had to choose from was gold for the band, i probablly wouldn't wear one either. I just don't really like gold. As I said I am mor epartial to white gold, platinum, silver, titanium and I am really liking these black titaniums rings I am seeing.

Yeah from my searchin g they are still around 200 monimum, although I haven't seen any standard titaniums under 100 yet either.

Here's where I got mine from:
http://www.e-weddingbands.com/store/titanium_wedding_bands.html

Very fast, very good to work with. My wife ordered the wrong size, I paid for shipping to send it back, they sent the resize back for free. I ordered, received, sent back, and had the correct size back in under a week.

 

[richardycc]

here is my ring it is in plat.

 

[mpitts]

I have a plain, white gold band that I always wear.

 

[RichPLS]

I wear two wedding rings, one around each eye ;(

My fiancee is a little worried about buying a diamond ring, she has managed to lose the stones in 2 differant rings already. The first diamond was from the temporary engagment ring I gave her. It actually used to be my mothers, she gave it to me after they got divorced. She new that one of the posts was broken on it, but forgot to mention it to us. It was a pretty small diamond, so it was a loss, but not like 1000 dollars or anything. Then she just recently noticed the ruby stone from a ring her mother gave her was missing. Not sure how that happened.

A lot of people in the auto industry don't wear their wedding bands... I've heard of more than a few stories of coworkers being burned or shocked pretty bad because they were working around electrical components and OMGWTFZZZZZap!!

 

[unsped]

some people do not because of there job also. my dad is a machinist and does not, could smash or get caught on something.

Because marriage isn't about rocks or other material possessions. It's about love.

When I get married I don't plan on wearing a ring, because I hate them. I'll tell my girlfriend that I don't want a ring, and if she has to buy one, get a $1 ring because the money is best spent elsewhere, like for kids going to college, retirement, health, etc. Not rocks.

I kinda agree with you on that. She doesn't want to spend too much, so thats good I guess. I just don't really like many of the cheap rings and in order for me to want to wear it, I obviously have to like it. I like these black ones but they are around 200+.

i just had a wedding band, and only took it off when i was kneading a very messy dough (like for biscuits) or if my hands were in a tight space working on equipment
