Ladies, Real talk…is this weird?

So I have always heard the rule never touch another woman’s center stone on her ring & that it means something. Just in general, I think it’s weird…but what do you do?

This happens quite frequently to me, when I was engaged & now married. When women ask to see my ring and they hold my hand and then touch my ring, what am I supposed to do? How can I politely discourage touching my ring? I keep trying to tell myself this doesn’t matter, I clean it regularly, is this a big deal?

It’s not like I’m wearing a 3 carat rock or anything, I have a tasteful small beautiful ring, I don’t understand the obsession, the touching, or the comments. But it’s kind of driving me nuts…
