Fiancé doesn't want ring

FH is so excited for his ring. He wears it around the house sometimes and it's adorable.

I wonder if you and FH could get a ring for him to wear, and if after a couple of weeks/months it still really bothers his to wear it because it's uncomfortable, then at least he could say he gave it a shot. I know my E-Ring felt really weird for the first few weeks, but then I got used to it and don't feel it at all now.

I am a workers compensation adjuster and we handle claims for car dealerships. I have had multiple claims from men in the service departments, where their rings interfered with a work activity and caused injury.

If it's truly about safety, I would understand. But he can still wear it everywhere else!

My e-ring felt weird at first too, but now if I don't have it on , I feel weird.

Take him to try some on.. He might find one he likes and change his mind.

My dad has never worn his wedding ring as long as I have been alive. He works a job where it would be a safety problem but even on the weekends when he's not working he still doesn't feel the need to wear it. I think it's personal preference. Not a lot of guys are big on jewelry. My FMIL makes my FFIL wear his everyday even though he works construction and has lost his ring at least 3 times. I think this is stupid. Don't force him to do something he doesn't want to do. I actually find it weird for men to wear rings because my dad never wore one.

Mine will be wearing a silicone ring while working (he's a roofer) and then his actual wedding band while not working.

Get him a qalo

My fiancé is not keen on wearing a ring either. But we will be giving the silicon rings a try to see how comfortable he feels.

My dad is/was a machinist. (Now he is a fancypants boss but still spends a ton of time in the shop.) He never wears a wedding ring. He actually doesn't even have one. I wouldn't say your FH is being crazy. My SM doesn't care that my dad doesn't have a ring but every couple is different. Good luck on this one!

FH is a mechanic, and I don't expect him to wear his ring at work. For him it would be both dangerous and uncomfortable.

Give the guy a break. Him not wearing it during the week does not make him any less married to you. Most men aren't as attached to rings as we are.

Mine is a heavy equipment mechanic for the military base, they are no allowed to wear jewelry! I'm ok with it, he can wear it while not at work, it doesn't bother me at all. If you are worried about other women, well that shady ones prefer married men, no ring? No problems! Lol besides it is just a piece of jewelry it doesn't speak the levels of love he has for you!

I say "don't sweat it!"

Another post about the Qalo- I got him a metal ring for special occasions, but he wears his Qalo everyday. I thought it would bother me but it doesn't at all- he likes wearing it and is comfortable with it- have him check it out! I think they're $20- I bought him a backup while I was at it!

Ha! My dad tried to pull that crap on my mom too - so she very calmly said "ok, if you don't have to wear one, neither do I."

He changed his tune pretty fast.

I guess no one read the OP follow up post, a computer programmer is hardly a dangerous job. A mechanical shop yes. I don't think she's taking his safely lightly, she just didn't explain exactly what he does. Most mechanical machines are run by computers thus Im assuming the FH (as a computer programmer) would be programming, trouble shooting and calibrating on the computer not really digging into the machines with wrenches and cogs.

Advice again OP. QALO rings are made of silicon and can be cut off if needed. They're comfortable to wear. I think it's might be more of the FH doesn't want to wear jewelry and is using an excuse that might not really factor into his situation. If I'm wrong about this, I'm wrong.

Mine was. He doesn't wear his to work. It bugs me but he puts it on as soon as he gets home.

My now husband bought a rubber ring to war to work. He's an auto mechanic. It's safer and more comfortable to wear at work. He found them on Amazon. He still has his actual ring and wears that at home and non-work places. Maybe your FH could look into those rubber rings. They're actually quite stylish for a rubber ring too

My husband lost his ring 6 months into our marriage.

2 years later, he still hasn't replaced it. At first it annoyed me, but now I'm like, "Whatever. We're still married."

It's not crap, it's open communication.

Get a titanium ring. They are so light and so comfortable. My fiancé is excited about getting one.

I don't wear a lot of jewelry either so I understand. Maybe if he wore it around a necklace, that might be a fair compromise.

My feelings would be hurt for sure! (I'm a sensitive sally, though.) Mine has worn a ring since we got engaged, by choice! He's a pipeline welder and hasn't had a problem. He wears thick welding gloves, though.

I work with a few guys who went the tattoo route or who have switched from their metal bands to silicone ones. They look pretty cool and evidently they are comfortable. My FH swore he was not a ring guy then we went to look at them he tried it on and has been wearing it ever since (we don't even get married for another 300 plus days)
