Do you ever take your ring off?

Posted in Planning 47

Just wondering if you ever take the ring off and when? If not, how long does it take to get used to it? I am not used to wearing jewelery to bed and it sort of feels weird. Just curious.

    I only take it off to clean it. I know it probably scratches my ring to sh!t, but I can't take it off or I have mini-heart attacks when I realize it isn't on my finger..until I remember why, but it still freaks me out too much to take it off.

    I take mine off to shower and when I'm working out. I've been swimming in an indoor chlorinated pool and I'd hate to think what might happen! I usually carry my ring box with me if I'm going to the gym and toss it in there till I'm done.

    I take mine off when showering (sometimes), bathing the baby (so it's doesn't scratch him), doing dishes, putting on lotion and putting hair products in my hair...

    I am like you Mrs. Murdie. I can't take mine off without panicking. I feel naked with out it. The only time its off is when I do facials and I put lotion on.

    I take mine off to shower, cook, clean, and work out. I also can't sleep in my E-ring because the prongs get stuck in my hair, Lol. But after the weddnig, I'll sleep in my band, I'm sure. No prongs! : )

    I never take mine off, you will get use to it. October Bride is right it will feel strange when you do take it off. When I brought my rings to have them cleaned at the jeweler- that whole 10 minutes I felt like I was missing something.

    I did in the beginning when I slept or showered, but now I just clean it often. I did take it off when I went tubing.

    I take my e-ring off when I wash my hair because the shampoo makes it slip off my finger and I don't want it to go down the drain. Other than that, it's always on. :-) FS originally got it too big so I had it resized and it fits perfectly now so during my normal day-to-day I don't worry about it coming off too much.

    I haven't worn my E-Ring in over 3 months because one of the stones is loose. It took me a while to get use to it not being on I kept thinking it fell off and I lost it.

    I take mine off to sleep, wash my hands, showering, anything that uses water basically. I fell asleep with it on one time and I hate doing it, because I'm afraid of losing a gem or something, even though mine is only CZ

    I take mine off when I'm washing dishes, cleaning, showering and sleeping I don't sleep with an of my jewerly on. But you know what cleans your jewerly very well - Ammonia, just pour a little in a small container and place your jewerly inside for a few seconds, dry off and it looks a good a the day it was brought.

    I take mine off at home, unless we have guests, at the gym, and when putting on lotion at my desk. I have never showered with it on, but I find washing my hands and soaping up the ring keeps it shinier (It is a solitaire). And I have never slept with it on.

    I take mine off (for safety reasons) whenever I'm working with machinery and shop-tools. Other than that, it stays on. After 21 years, my wife still expects me to have it on in public. I guess the ring is supposed to keep other ladies from hitting on me. LOL Strange...that never seemed to happen even before I got married... Anyway, my wife takes off her engagment ring all the time, but she leaves the wedding band on always.

    I take mine off when I'm showering or doing heavy cleaning or have a fear that it may get lost if I'm doing something. Occasionally at night I'll take it off because its bothering me but thats very seldom! I feel very weird without it on now!
