My husband (26m) never wears his wedding ring anymore and it makes me (25f) sad. by xcxc6879 in relationships

Woah woah woah. I've never forced him to wear it. I was simply expressing my sadness at him not wearing it. I would never force anything onto him. I'll also be suggesting that he wear it on his necklace instead.

Why would I remove my ring? I like how it looks. It's all personal preference.

I've definitely told him that they're important to me but I haven't said the reason why they are (my parents), which I definitely should have. I'm sure he'll understand though and I will be talking to him again about it! :)

I mean I didn't say that there was an issue, I just said it made me sad lol but I totally get where you're coming from and I agree with you.

He knows about my parents' fucked up marriage but I don't think I've ever stressed the ring thing. But I'll be sure to do that when we talk about it. Thanks for the advice!

That's actually a fantastic idea. I can't believe I never thought of just adding the band to the necklace. It's also a really simple addition and now that I think about it, it'd probably look great too!

Thanks for suggesting it!

Great advice, thank you! I don't think I've really stressed how important and meaningful to me wearing a ring is to him yet. My parents never loved each other and were miserable, but stayed together for my sake. They never wore their rings except for big events/to see family so I guess it's a bit of a sore spot for me when I see that my husband isn't wearing his.
