She's really upset you take your ring off to go to the gym?

I put my buddies on when we go to bars.

Women hit on me so much more when they think I'm a miserable husband instead of a happy bachelor.

This^^^

She's an engineer for Haliburton and I'm finishing up a Ph.D. in chemical engineering so there's a lot of safety reasons why we can't wear ours so we're getting tattoos that will be covered up by the rings when we wear them.

it's not that they think you're a miserable husband. it's that a man being married means he has big value. the woman can assume the guy makes money, has a somewhat stable life, etc etc, so she's more attracted to that.

also the whole want what you can't have.

I like the idea of a grooms gift for heirloom purposes. But the idea that it's going to cost as much as her engagement ring is crazy.

Since men's wedding bands are SUPER cheap, should the grooms gift be equal to what was spent on the engagement ring?

Just don't wear your ring if you can't . My wife's ring didn't fit her for like 4 months after our son was born. It's not like I forgot we were married because of it. And if you think that a ring is all that's stopping your SO from acting single, then you got another problem to deal with.

yea I knew someone would say that. but it's true. stability and dependability are huge for women. a married man displays both. or at least the image of both.

Gotta love Amazon reviews

Here's one I found for QALO rings

quote:

When my fiancee got me this wedding ring, all I could say was "Wow!". I mean, who wouldn't want a $20 black rubber wedding ring instead of some thousand-dollar platinum band. Instead of being made of precious metal, I can be comforted that this ring is made out of some old tire from a 1981 Toyota Corona. On top of that, this wedding ring has SOOOO many more uses. For one, my cat loves chewing on it, so I can give it to her a few times to keep her from gnawing on the furniture. Also, I've found if my faucet springs a leak, my QALO Silicone Wedding Ring acts as the perfect gasket until the plumber arrives. What other wedding ring can you say that about?! And most important, no one knows it's a wedding ring! I can feel comfortable going to the clubs wearing my QALO Silicone Wedding Ring, and the girls think I'm not married, which leaves me guilt-free when I wake up with them the next morning. Thank you QALO Silicone Wedding Ring!

Definitely not thinking that it's stopping anybody from acting single or being hit on by anybody. It's just something we discussed and decided to do. It's not some garish thing, just something that's simple and special to us.

Oh, you're the wife. That makes sense now. I agree with the other guy. Give him a bunch of blow jobs and keep your arse in good shape. He will appreciate that more than anything else.
