    :confused:

    I don't think my dad ever wore his wedding ring.

    The folks are married 37 years now though. My mum has always worn her engagement and wedding rings (don't think she's gone a day without wearing them) and yet, of the two individuals, I'd say she'd be the one more likely to be unfaithful (not saying I have reason to believe this, but if I was pressured into saying so, yep, I could imagine her straying for a toy boy... :))

    My dad's super old-skool, don't think he'd even look at another woman. And yet he doesn't comply with that old tradition - probably cuz he just doesn't like the feel of rings.

    My husband hates jewlery of any kind but we compromised when it came to being married - both him and I wear a plain band of gold and I did take his name in the end. It did take a while for him to get used to it but he is fine with it now. I must admit that it was important to me - I wear a sign of commitment to him (my wedding and enagement ring) and feel that it is only fair that he should do the same.

    In terms of why I married him - well, I love him and want the world to know that we are a family together. We did not have a big day out, it was about being married, not getting married and it still is, I love every day I have with him and have never taken him for granted.
