Do some people make too much out of wearing wedding rings?
December 1st, 2010My man hasn’t worn his for years do to the work he does. I’d rather he didn’t wear one than run the risk of loosing a finger at his job.
I don’t wear one since I broke my ring finger on my left hand and frankly it feels bad to have any rings on that finger. So I haven’t worn mine for over 10 years.
Neither of us see this as an issue. Why is it for others????
Why do people wear their wedding rings on their left ring finger?
October 31st, 2010I was wondering why on the left hand and why on the ring finger for wedding rings. I heard the left hand had to do with being closer to the heart or because most people are right handed but what which one is true? What about the ring finger?
How is it that people confuse wedding rings & engagement rings?
September 17th, 2010Just curious, but I see lots of questions on here like “how much should I spend on a wedding ring” and they really mean the engagement ring or “what is the difference between an engagement ring and a wedding ring?”.
So I’m wondering how is it that alot of people seem to confuse the two or not know what the difference is. Or are there just alot of young people here who don’t know the difference??
