Just got engaged (again) now a question

My ring hurts my finger sometimes when I am working here at the ranch. I used to not wear it much so my wife bought me the silicone ones. They are comfortable and I wear it all the time and the gold one for more special occasions.

You could wear your ring on chain around your neck when hunting. A Honeymoon in Africa is the real question here.

I got engaged last weekend—my second, her first.

Here’s my question. First time around I hated how my ring makes up gunstocks or had to be taken off all the time. I see a lot of gutted with these rubber wedding rings that look cheesy. Anyone know of a ring that looks decent that might be a somewhat softer material?

@Russ16 - I’ve worn my wedding ring for 30+ years, it was My Father’s and he wore it for 25+ years before me - never even notice it’s on my finger but would feel “naked” without it. It’s a plain gold band, comfortable and gets bloody & clean - same as my hands….it’s NBD. I would think the more often you take it off the greater chance you Lose it

I wear the qalo silicone ring. It’s just the basic black one.

@RyanPalmer - nothing says “Love & Eternity” better then SILICONE

I wear a gold band when I’m off work. Silicone when on because I want to wear one but don’t want my finger skinned. Once you see one of those pictures it makes sense..

I’ve been married 20yrs. In that time I’ve had many close calls with my ring getting hung up on something. We both decided to switch to silicone and our actual wedding rings sit in a jewelry box together. I suppose it’s not for everyone.

Here’s a recent oopsie where simply hopping out of the bed of my work truck hung my finger on the bed rail.

When I first got married I was working around a lot of machinery where there was a chance of it getting caught and loosing a finger. One of my coworkers wore his gold band and with what he worked on it destroyed the ring with gouges and scratches.

My ex asked me about wearing a ring and I just told her flat out that it was dangerous due to the work that I did. We compromised by getting me a ring along with a gold necklace for me to wear. The necklace was out of the way and no one ever even noticed it.

I sold the necklace when we got divorced and used the proceeds to pay off a few things that we had purchased while we were together. I still have the ring.

Never been married but did have a really nice family coat of arms Ring made for myself when I first started making real money. Word of advice from a fool don’t wear one if your prone to physical discussions. I had to have the above mentioned ring cut off after breaking the finger it was on in two places in conversation with my sisters ex husband over his treatment of my nephew.
