Desert Rat Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 My engagement ring was $100 chip from Montgomery Ward. No. I don't wear it. I wear a gold band. I like it just fine. Â My dh found a beautiful 1 carat ring with 13 chips several years ago. After no one claimed it, we got to keep it. We will be turning this into a ring for me. It's a marquis cut and I want it set east-west so it doesn't catch on everything. I like the style. Â I will only be able to get this ring if dryers and vans stop breaking, BILs stop needing money, and kids stop eating me out of house and home. So maybe some day. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 My engagement ring is soltered to my wedding band. I only wear it (and my anniversary band) when I go out of the house. My solitaire is a marquis cut and it is kind of sharp, so I don't like to wear it around the house. Plus in the winter, my fingers shrink a little and I'm always afraid I'll lose the set down the drain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy in Indy Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 My band and engagement ring are soldered together. I put my ring on when I'm dressed for the day and take it off when I go to bed. I love wearing my ring! Because.... it was such a surprise. DH took me to look at teeny, tiny diamonds. Meanwhile, he'd been to an estate auction and purchased a beautiful 1+ carat diamond that he had reset. I was so shocked when he gave it to me! I've worn it 27 years now (almost 28) and I can't imagine NOT wearing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah CB Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Sort of a spin-off from my post this morning re: confessions. The fact that I don't usually wear my engagement ring was mentioned in this email to me this morning. At first, I put it all in the same pile as the other nonsense, but now I'm really thinking about it. Pretty much everyone that I know DOES wear their engagement ring. Â How about you? Â I have a nice 1 ct. diamond solitaire that I just don't wear. I do wear my wedding band. When DH and I are going out somewhere or going out of town, I put the diamond on. Usually, though, it's sitting in my jewelry box. After a few years of wearing it, I just found that it seemed to get in the way. Constantly taking it off to wash hands or dishes, to cook, to fold laundry (so it didn't catch on clothing or linens)... Blech. It just got in my way. Â So now I'm wondering if that's completely strange of me. Â I'm of the opinion that it's better to get enjoyment from what we have than to save things for a special day. This may be shallow, but I really love the few pieces I have and I get enjoyment out of seeing them daily. I also use my "good" tablecloths every day, my crystal wineglasses when I drink wine (instead of the cheap ones dh bought after bil broke three of the good ones in one weekend) and I'm not afraid to use my Great-Grandmother's cocoa set that she hand-painted herself in the 20's (even though I just about gave my dad a heart attack when I told him the kids and I used it for actual cocoa).

PrairieSong Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I told dh not to get me one but he dragged me into a jewelry store and insisted on buying the biggest diamond they had. I caved because it seemed to be the expected thing to do but ended up not keeping it. We were poor and I felt bad about him spending a huge (to us at the time) amount of money on something I didn't even want. I later found out he was worried about what other people would think, especially my parents, but they didn't care. I have a gold band that I usually wear when going somewhere.

carriede Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Yes and yes. Â Though I would notice if the engagement ring were missing on someone else, I wouldn't really care if it were there or not. Â I would think it odd if someone who I knew was married did not have at least their wedding band on. I think it's an important symbol. Â This, coming from a gal whose mother never wore her rings. She wasn't looking to look single or anything, but I guess one time she lost them, than they got too small. I always thought she should have had them resized or at least bought a cheap band to wear. Â My dad ALWAYS had his band on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somo_chickenlady Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I wear mine just about every day.

LaxMom Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Yes, I have one. No, I don't wear it.

Night Elf Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Yes and yes. My diamond ring is fused to my wedding band so they are one ring now.

Researcher Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I do wear mine every day, but take it off for certain tasks where it could get damaged or very dirty.

Chris in VA Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I never take mine off. It's just a little quarter-carat b/c that's all dh could afford in college, but it's lovely and very special to me. My first ring broke after being sized, and I didn't wear it for a few years; it bothered both my hubby and me, but I was rather depressed and angry at the time and didn't want to get it fixed. Passive-agressive carp. He gave me a new band (same diamond) for Christmas about 3 or 4 years ago--it feels clunkier, even tho it's quite thin, but it means a lot to him that I wear it.

I actually wouldn't mind selling my engagement ring and putting the money towards something useful but I think my dh is too attached to it or the idea of it. Â I'm sort of the same way. I'm not huge into jewelry. I do have some things that I enjoy wearing at times, but I don't usually think to ask for jewelry or buy it for myself. I never sleep with jewelry on, except for my wedding band. I hardly even wear earrings. In all honesty, my jewelry was part of one of my New Year's resolutions. To wear the stuff more often and if I found that I wasn't, to find a new home for it all. I'd like to explore the idea of selling the engagement ring and putting the money in savings maybe. I don't think DH would mind at all. He sees the ring much the same way that I do - we were pressured into getting it and it doesn't mean much.

They've ALWAYS pointed it out when I've happened to wear mine while showering or washing dishes - there's a soap residue left behind in some spots of the ring. As for sticking up and getting caught - mine sticks up really high. The whole thing is platinum and the prongs, when caught on something, don't budge. I've caused snags in blankets, towels, sheets, sweaters, wool socks... I guess if the prongs/setting were less flashy, then it would be more low profile and wouldn't snag as much. I can't spend money on resetting it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â It feels weird to me not take them off to wash. It is a habit I got into when I had severe skin problems on my hands and I felt better about getting everything perfectly dry when I took the rings off to wash and put them back after drying. Sure, you can dry your hands with the rings (dh will slip his ring up a bit to dry under the ring) but with the way my hands were, it was better to take the ring off all the way. Â I clean my ring, but not when washing my hands. Â My engagement ring has scratched one of my kids more than once so it was one more reason to not wear it around the house. Maybe because the stone wasn't round, it was more likely to scratch. Â My husband, on the other hand, can probably count the number of times he has removed his ring. He very, very rarely takes it off and we've been married almost ten years. So for him, it is weird to even think of taking it off for hand washing or showers or just being home but he sees why I don't wear mine at home. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a little water under mine, but they are loose enough that a little moving them around and it all dries easily. I've never gotten a rash or anything from them. I've also never had the jeweler say anything about soap residue, and I too have to go in every 6 months to get it cleaned and inspected for insurance purposes (which I've done for 15 year and they've never said a thing about residue) but mine are just gold, so maybe the platinum has something to do with that.

It's very snug these days and for a while I was constantly getting a rash underneath from water being trapped. It's tight enough that it also gets uncomfortable when my fingers swell a little bit over the course of the day, and can be difficult to get off to dry underneath. For awhile I was carrying around a little thing of baby powder so I could powder my finger before putting my ring back on since that helped prevent the rash but then I gained even more weight and it's very uncomfortable. I don't want to get it resized since I WILL be losing this weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandelion Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Yes, I wear mine every day. Â But I think it's odd that your friend would comment on your choice not to wear yours. What you choose to do in this case is nobody's business. It never ceases to amaze me what people will stick their noses into. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncooks Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I stopped wearing my engagement ring when my oldest was an infant; the stone always seemed to somehow scratch her lil' bum when I changed diapers. She's now 6. I tried it on recently but my fingers are now too big for it. Â I stopped wearing my wedding ring this past fall, when my fingers got to big. Trying to lose weight so I can fit them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
