I have been married 11 months and l misplaced my wedding band yesterday how many of you still have your band on

No, mine no longer fits (I guess I gained too much weight)

48-1/2 years with a gap for the 2yr 4mos when I was in a combat billet in Vietnam, where wearing a ring carried a risk of getting your finger ripped off. No resizing as I weighed 130 when I ran in college and we got married, and I still weigh 130.

That's a show stopper post... 48.5 years of marriage, served in Vietnam, and you're still at the same weight!

30+ years of marriage and I do still wear my ring. I need to lose a few pounds before I could get if off though.

Lost my wedding ring on the 1st day of my honeymoon. Took it off at a table and was spinning it like a coin because I wasn’t used to it yet. Spun it to hard and it fell off a balcony into the ocean.

18 years of marriage.

Initial ring was too big.

I had to keep touching my thumb to my ring finger in certain situations like being in water to keep it on.

Had it sized down after that.

Then it eventually got real tight and had it sized up this year.

Never lost it.

How much did yall pay for them rings lol.

36 years, have worn it every day until I lost it three weeks ago. And then found it a few days later in the bottom of a suitcase I had packed for a trip to FL. My fingers shrink in this cold Midwest weather. . .

12 years, it rarely ever comes off.

Been married 7 years. I’ve lost three of them... I’ve given up and just wear a cheap plastic/rubber one. Tight rings make me nervous, but all of them were too lose and fell off at work without me noticing.

I never take mine off so hard to loose.

16 years of marriage. Same weight, same ring, never take it off.

Same ring, 30 years and 362 days later. Getting steadily back down to my college weight.

Ring slipped off a few years ago (fortunately into the dryer, where I found it) because my fingers had shrunk with weight loss and cold weather. Started working my fingers (squeezing a tennis ball, etc.) so they haven't shrunk anymore, though the rest of me has. Still a little concerned it might slip off after the last 5kg are gone.

It would bother me very much to lose the ring.

There is personal value too it; now my wife's ring was expensive. I personally don't know the price of what the average mens wedding band goes for, but knowing l wasn't going to have it on all the time, l got a less expensive one. You can't tell the difference. When is the last time someone said, " did you see the wedding band he had on?" He must have paid an arm and a leg for that".

Mine was about 200 bucks - it's white gold, nice and dinged up. I've only taken it off once in 12.5 years, and that was to get it resized. Luckily my wife thinks diamonds look gaudy, so I got her a ring with sapphires on it, and it didn't cost much more than mine.

If your girl demands a 5,000 dollar and up ring, it's going to be a rough life buddy. the two months salary thing was a scam by DeBeers to sell more blood diamonds.

They let people who spell things like “centemtal” get married?

No wonder this county is going down the drain.

Damn, son.

41 years, I take it off for some jobs and when swimming in lakes.

I do have an embarrassing story of I time when I lost it at work. Many years ago I was talking to a very attractive women and for some reason I was fiddling with the ring under the table. I was spinning it on my finger. Well it fell off on to the rug and I didn't know it. Later I realized it was missing and I had to retrace my steps. I had to return to her office and explain that I left my wedding ring there.

20+ years hitched and rarely wear it; maybe once every couple of months if I remember. End up misplacing it and surf a lot and it can slip off in the water. Wife doesn't care, but I should probably wear it more often.

I've been married for 22.5 years and have taken my band off only once: for a surgery. It was back on within an hour post surgery. That was in 2005.

Sorry you misplaced your band, dude!
