I haven't worn mine in many years, so it would be hypocritical of me to get upset if she didn't.

PS, I also find it a turn on when some guy checks out my wife, even after 23 years.

I really didn't find an answer that would fit my vote. I wouldn't be mad (I am a female though) I could understand a person not wearing it all the time, but if they were going to a bar or somewhere that is likely to be hit on, I think you should make it clear by wearing your wedding ring. I would wear it just because I liked it and because I would want the message to come across in almost any setting. I however, don't think it's something that is neccessary unless it involved a bar or something. Now as for being turned on? No. I would be highly pissed if my partner was turned on by my pretending not to be married. It kinda means maybe you hope she will be hit on or something along the lines. I wouldn't want to give men the wrong idea so I'd wear mine. I would think my partner didn't love me if he was turned on by me not wearing it or getting hit on.

The wife and I have both forgotten to put our rings back on after doing something that required them to be off. Not a big deal to us.

I wouldn't be angry.. because I rarely wear mine. I have a job where it would get ruined and I don't want to lose it, so I keep it in a velvet lined box until it's safe to wear it again. :3

IF I was to ever get married I'd like a husband to wear a ring so other females stay away (those with any morals anyway), but most guys seem to just leave their ring on so there wouldn't be any forgetting it. But if he happened to take it off and went out without it, I couldn't get upset about it. After all, I wouldn't want to wear any wedding rings period! I don't like rings.

If a person is going to cheat, they aren't going to let a piece of jewellery stop them.

I never wear my wedding ring anymore and its not an issue. I don't go anywhere to get hit on either. With my last pregnancy my fingers swelled and I just got used to not wearing it.

the last time I accidentally forgot to wear my ring, my wife flipped out at me. She knows I wont wear it and will leave it at home if we have something dangerous going on at work though. She almost always goes wearing her ring, but when she forgets, I get pissed off. Also I get super pissed when she comes home after going out dancing with her friends or something and tells me about the guys who hit on her. I know shes hot, I know she is coming home to me, but I also don't want to hear her basically bragging about being hit on....that pisses me off more than anything.

My husband takes his off so rarely that it would simply be strange to see it missing. I play up fake jealousy, since it gives me a reason to get snuggles from him. But its obvious that I'm just playing around. I take mine off for aikido and the lake/kayaking.

I probably wouldn't care. It's a freakin' ring, in my opinion.

I wouldn't be mad if it was an accident but I would like for her to wear it always.

yes this is exactly word for word what I was going to write!

I could tell you that my husband would be uncomfortable with it. Mainly because I ALWAYS wear it. I mean if I'm doing something messy or damage is a high risk, it comes off. But then it goes right back on. So he would view it as suspicious...

I only wear mine when I go out or head to work (I tend to get a little "finger sweat" when at home, which grosses me out), and I honestly can't remember the last time my husband wore his (he can't stand the feeling of jewelry on his hands/wrists, and his fingers thave a habit of swelling during the day). Doesn't bother either of us at all.

Nothing to get upset about sometimes things happen. But if it was constant then there be a problem.

I guess I could see something like this causing an argument so I chose that I would be mad as hell.

I wouldn't be "mad as hell", but it depends on where she is going, why she forgot it and what not. If she was just running somewhere and had taken it off from doing dishes, cooking, shower etc, then I can see where it would be a common mistake that wasn't intentional. If she were doing it on a regular basis and was going out like with the girls or out to a club, or bar or something, THEN I would be pissed. My wife never takes her rings off though. Even with showering and what not. Usually the only time it comes off is in the summer when its really humid out and she starts to swell on her fingers.

my rings NEVER leave my finger, even when I go in for a surgery I will tell them to tape it on! I feel tis way, we put them there when we got married 20 years ago that is where they are supposed to stay. I get very upset when my hubby takes his off for other then cleaning or keeping it safe while working on cars or something. Probably just me though

Wow. We asked this question over a year ago and are still getting answers! Thats great!

Now that I am pregnant, I rarely wear my ring. My fingers swell in the heat and its uncomfortable. Not that I go too many places either way

Depends on the situation. I've had jobs previously that had strict no-jewelry policies (for safety reasons) so if it were for work or chores or just on accident I don't think I'd mind. If they were being sneaky and deliberate about it (like leaving it at home before heading to the bar and not letting me know) I would be pretty hurt.

I often go out without mine on, but my fingers swell and go back to normal and swell again quite frequently and he understands and doesn't care

As a wife, I don't mind, I know where his heart is. Also I think its kinda kinky and a turn on. When we are out people try to talk to him because he does not have a ring on, and then I just swoop in and "pick him up". I love the turn on.

This has happened to me as well. I actually told the guy I was married and he was still like ok so can we meet up. So I dont think a ring means anything to anyone but the people wearing them anymore.
