I currently wear two pieces of jewelry pretty much all of the time (even when cleaning, although I probably should take them off then!): my claddagh ring on my right ring finger, and my Cape Cod bracelet. I even wear my ring snorkeling, river tubing, swimming, jet skiing and parasailing (as I just did on my cruise) because I know it's not going to come off. So I imagine I'll wear my engagement and wedding rings the same way.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12809397616829044745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205981882039279640.post-73225215286959721342010-10-24T08:20:46.347-04:002010-10-24T08:20:46.347-04:00I am planning to get married very soon, and I thin...I am planning to get married very soon, and I think I would love to wear my ring all the time.

The hubs, however, lost a bunch of weight after we had ordered his ring and we can't get it re-sized without buying a whole new one (it's tungsten). So when we were snorkeling on our honeymoon I would always tie it in the strings of my bikini (mostly because he would forget to take it off until we were in the water!) or when he does things like yard work he takes it off. He always wears it at work, though, so everyone knows he's mine! :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16541676276051047467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205981882039279640.post-1620199155515545102010-10-15T16:30:12.167-04:002010-10-15T16:30:12.167-04:00Always on.

Unless they are being inspected/cleaned or I am working with dough or raw meat (two things I absolutely gag at the thought of getting stuck in my diamonds, haha). Other than that they are on while I sleep, in the shower, while working out, etc. etc. etc. We sure as hell did not spend all of that money for me to not wear them!<br /><br />I can certainly understand some situations where women don't wear them--for work (like nurses or other professions that require latex gloves or when I was prosecuting child abuse cases...those people were so indigent and would have hated me even more if I was flaunting a large diamond around the court room) or when you are pregnant :)d.a.r.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00631548794999476930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205981882039279640.post-86277924779483157852010-10-14T13:21:51.128-04:002010-10-14T13:21:51.128-04:00I wear mine most of the time; i only remove them t...I wear mine most of the time; i only remove them to shower, sleep, and if i am working out with weights. i wear them while running, though. mine are sautered (?) together, so that makes things easier.

Like this morning. I wear them more than I used to though. I did not wear my rings while I was pregnant and my fingers grew a 1/2 size while I was pregnant so I had to get them resized. During that time, I also lost my wedding band. Still haven't found it which is weird. Regardless...<br /><br />The boy wears his ring all the time. He used to take it off to bake, but now he wears it 24/7.<br /><br />He's pretty understanding or at least patient with my wishy-washiness.princessaprhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17661275728902254769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205981882039279640.post-39243729815097325142010-10-13T17:45:17.300-04:002010-10-13T17:45:17.300-04:00I usually do not wear mine at work because it gets...I usually do not wear mine at work because it gets so dirty and scratched up.

My husband only wears his on the weekend because with his job he isn't able to wear a ring, watch or long sleeves due to a finger or arm possibly being cut off. I didn't spend very much money on it and I am just happy he wears it on the weekend. <br /><br />I am so very afraid that if I take it off I'll forget to put it back on or my puppy would get to it.

I don't like to wash the dishes with it on as it turns around and around and really bothers me! :) I also take it off if I'm taking a shower or doing any cleaning. I even don't like to wear it when I'm sleeping. I have a ring holder I keep it in so I know it's safe, but I do ocassionaly have mini freak outs when I don't feel it on my finger and I quickly remember I left it in my ring bowl. :) <br /><br />I always wear it when I'm not home, like when I go somewhere..

I have very thin fingers and the ring is a little loose, but I don't want to make it any smaller because I live in Texas and it gets HOT in the summer (fingers swell!).

Then it stays off all night and I will put it back on in the morning after my shower.

I actually don't wear them as much as I should. I'm more afraid that I'll lose them. Plus, I had an accident where the diamond became lose and if that were to ever come out I'd be a dead woman walking (though it is insured, I would feel terrible). So I get nervous wearing it in case it should just fall out. But then I also feel guilty because the hubby (can you believe I can call him that now) always catches me without them on and I know it hurts him just a little. So I've gotten into the habit of wearing just the wedding bands now.Marianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402943435111129880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205981882039279640.post-81724686110843735842010-10-13T12:52:05.706-04:002010-10-13T12:52:05.706-04:00My engagement ring and wedding ring fit together a...My engagement ring and wedding ring fit together as a wrap set, which I wear anytime I'm leaving the house, except for exercise.

Once we were married I tried wearing the band, but the constant on and off of the gloves loosened one of the stones the very first week. My husband told me NOT to wear them at work anymore for fear of losing a stone. I got a fake channel set band that I wear all week and put on the real deal on the weekends. I hate it, but it's just what I have to do. It certainly makes wearing them even more special since I don't get too all the time!<br /><br />My husband on the other hand hasn't taken his off since the day I put it on.Mrs EyeCanSeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06481991213562788059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205981882039279640.post-60426335237245974982010-10-13T12:17:49.400-04:002010-10-13T12:17:49.400-04:00I'm the exact same as you.

Sometimes I like wearing only my wedding ring, but usually it's because I'm going somewhere/doing something that might be potentially dangerous to my e-ring. Josh wears his ring all the time, which never fails to make me smile.
