Any other OH's not want to wear a ring?

My OH doesn't really wear any jewellery so we are only getting a silver ring for him. He plays football so much he's sure that he would lose it otherwise.

Same here..he doesnt wear jewellry so we have bought a cheap tungsten ring as he probably wont wear it but if he does it wont get scratched at work,,,

Mine is having one for the day but that is all. He can't wear jewellery, not even watches

If you're both happy it doesn't matter ?

My OH wanted to wear his ring on a chain until I pointed out his chest hair!!! lol

We are the opposite way round! I will be wearing mine on a chain OH will be wearing his on his finger!

..Eh...What's a tungsten ring?? ...I feel really silly asking you this! x

OH hates wearing jewellery so won't be having one at all. One less thing for him to loose while he's gardening. Saving us money, too! I just want him to be comfortable. If we were younger I might be more bothered about it but I'm quite comfortable with it.

Hey Lauriel....Not silly if you dont know! Tungsten is hard wearing metal - similar to Titanium...its scratch resistant...

My OH wasn't going to wear one originally - the men is his family haven't traditionally worn them. But after speaking to friends and my grandad, he was starting to think about it. He was still unsure what it would feel like to wear a ring, think he thought he'd always be aware of it being there on his finger, so I bought him a £5 ring from Argos, to get the feel of a ring which he wore a couple of days and realised he wouldn't feel the ring so now we've got him a tungsten one - because in his words - he wanted a darker colour, rather than a sparkly colour.

My OH isn't having a ring at all, he doesn't wear any jewellry, part from a watch, so isn't having a ring. i don't see it as a problem, entirely his choice. And it wouldn't have occurred to me to have one just for the ceremony, seems a tad pointless tbh. But each to their own ?

My OH is having a ring but will only wear it when we go out. He works with engines everyday so wont wear it for work. He's not bothered about rings anyway.

Mine is only having one for the ceremony really, he may start to wear it when we go out but definitely not at work - hes a joiner and so doesnt want to catch it in any of his power tools and doesnt wear any other jewellery, not even a watch. We have just got a cheap one but can get a nicer one at a later date if he decides he will wear it more often.

My OH is also getting a titanium one as he doesnt think he will wear it much and also he prefers the matt finish. He says he will onyl wear it on special occasions.

Does it bother any of you who's OH wont be wearing it. As I would prefer mine to but cant come up with a good reason as to why!!

My Dad has a wedding ring but only wears it very occassionally as he is an electrician. And he thinks it's dangerous doing manual work and wearing one.

My best friend has a phobia (almost) of wearing rings. She has a very thin wedding ring but struggles to wear her engagement ring some days. She too wears it on a chain. It's a very long story as to why......

So I suppose it's down to each individual.

My OH didn't want to as he doesn't even wear a watch but he knows it would upset me as I've made a lot of decisions about the wedding to please him so he is now considering it. I'm fine for him to have whatever he chooses as I know it wont be expensive of flashy-he's just not like that. And i've agreed he can take it off at work as he uses chemicals and gases, but when he's at home or in the office-on it goes!

Ahhh right! Thank you.. That sounds like an ideal material for my OHs ring, he is in a job thats quite manual so he'll need something very hard wearing x

My OH has never worn jewellery, not even a watch. Before we got married, he was adamant he wouldntt be wearing a ring but would just use one for the ceremony.

9mths post wedding, he hasnt taken it off!!!

Mr B isn't going to wear his - he's having a chain too. His birthday's a couple of weeks after we get married, but before he goes back to work, so new chain it is!

I have a feeling my dude will be like this - we had the conversation tonight and it was agreed if he didn't want to wear one he didn't have to.

I got my OH a stainless steel ring he'll only wear it for the day and when we go out.

He's an electrician so short of giving him a haribo ring to wear he'll have to go without xx

Mine can't wear one for a lot of his work and would lose the thing on a farm if he took it off, so he's having a tungsten ring that will be worn for the day and special occasions. I was expecting him not to want one, but he's happy to have one for the ceremony and when he can wear it (weekends off). I'd rather he has one and doesn't wear it (and lose it taking it off - he's lost watches in the past) than has one and loses it!

My df will have a ring but only wear it on a weekend etc as he can't really wear it for work it would be too dangerous

My hubby has a wedding ring.

he cant wear it for work. He's a mechanic, so if he wore it then got it caught he could quite literally lose his finger! Ouchy!

He wears it when he's off work, although has lost it twice in the house! He's never worn jeweller, since we've been together.

We weren't keen on wedding rings for either of us. Neither of us wear any jewellery as a rule, watches only. However, we bought a couple of cheap ones - tungsten carbide - to please the parents (on both sides). I soon realised that the dark grey colour wasn't going to go with my dress so bought a Tiffany silver one for the day.

Despite being completely unbothered, neither me nor Boy take ours off now (I wear my tungsten one). You might be surprised how attached you can become to a ring!

One thing I will say though, is that tungsten carbide is very hard but very brittle. If you wear one for a manual job, they can smash.

I will be wearing mine, although i dont usually wear jewellery to work. My OH will wear his, apart from when he is in work. I didnt like the sound of the idea, but he is a carpenter and id rather the ring didnt get ruined. So im quite happy with that

This (except for 3mths, not 9)
