Your wedding band (poll)
Just out of curiousity, I'm wondering how often you wear/take it off?[Poll]
Re: Your wedding band (poll)
Sure, it can count as an either and/or kinda answer

Maureen & Jonathan - Married 10-9-10 | Expecting our first child 05-04-13
Same....I also take it off when I'm cooking if it's something messy or raw meat
I voted for seldom... I tend to not wear it when I am at home mainly because I have scratched L with it. Its always on when we leave the house but at home I find myself taking it off to wash my hands, cook, shower, clean so its just easier to take it off so I remember where I put it. It kinda makes Mike a little crazy but I think he understands.
Does this make me a bad wife?
I said when I'm showering, washing my hands, etc and also when I'm at the gym. I'm nervous that the weights will scratch the metal and scuff the diamonds.
MIL literally freaks out whenever we talk about taking our rings off. Finally we had to tell her that they are insured for a reason and if anything happens then we'll just get new ones.
We also made it VERY clear that just because we take our rings off doesn't mean that we're not married or love each other less, the ring is just a symbol after all.
Is it bad that I LOVE wearing my ring(s) at the gym. I feel like there are always so many girls all done up trying to look cute at the gym and this is awful, but I sometimes feel like by wearing my rings and not even attempting to look cute, I'm saying "bam b!tches, it's not all about looks to find a man". Haha, how awful of me to admit.
I love when I see married couples at the gym, not necessarily working out together, but in passing on each of their routines

-when I'm sleeping because I have really dry hands and put lotion on right before I go to sleep
-when I shower because I usually do this when I first wake up and then apply body lotion afterward, so there's no point in putting the ring on until I've finished all that.
-If I'm just washing my hands during the daytime, the ring usually stays on.
My Married Bio | My Blog
Often in the winter (if I'm not going out again) Dom and I put on our PJ's (comfy clothes) right when we get home and then I usually take off my rings then. Cause I often then I'm cooking or cleaning and don't want to get them dirty
I don't wear them to bed anymore cause I once scratched Dom's face with my e-ring in my sleep. After that I don't wear them to bed. Haha
I voted "never," but that's not ENTIRELY true - I had to take it off for surgery, but I don't consider that my choice.
I have an excellent quality ring that can withstand anything I'm going to use my hands for, it's a perfect fit and isn't going to slip off, and it's insured - so I see no need to take it off.
Same here. We have a little ring holder that I put my rings on when showering. I wear them when sleeping and usually while cooking as well. DH does the dishes and I think he takes his ring off then.
Also, I always wear both my band and my e-ring.
40/112
This and when washing dishes. If I don't wear it to sleep I have trouble getting it back on in the morning.
Me too!
An offbeat planning bio
This. Both of them. And when I am at the beach...but mostly because I am afraid of it (or any of the diamonds) to fall off in the sand and be lost forever.
Wedding date 10/8/10
EDD 5/9/13
Make a pregnancy ticker
This.
I didn't vote, none of them are really right.
I wear my E-ring and my band all the time. They only come off if I'm doing something "yucky," applying lotion, painting/staining, handling raw meat/dough, etc.
