My sister in law's engagement party is tomorrow. I was thinking about putting back on my wedding & engagement rings. I mean, we're all going as a family, my daughter included, and I feel like we should look the part...is that stupid? I havent had my rings on in about 6 months. He has never said a word about it to me. I'd even be interested to see if he'd say "hey, you put your rings back on" or something to that effect. Then again, I'd probably have to hear some smart-ass comment from his mother about the topic as well. Any opinions/advice would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
if they mean something to you, wear them. if not, don't. and if the ML has anything to say about it...my favorite response to my ex ML was...
you don't sleep in my bed and you don't pay my bills...I don't care what you think.
she hated that. hated me. my life is so much better without her!
I hate that I'm making so much drama out of such a small thing, but I do tend to overanalyze ALOT!
If you don't wanna send a message that you're still married don't wear the rings
Sure they might look nice, but in that case get the stones put on something else!
I feel weird without mine all the time, but I'm not willing to send any kinda message that I'm married to the ass that left me so I leave them home!
Remember its not about you, but for a "happy new couple" Relax... enjoy the event.
Although, they'll gonna be asking me when my NEXT baby is coming, since my daughter is now 2, and she'll be there, making her presence MORE than obvious LOL!
you have not worn the rings in 6 months.. because 'your part' has been that of a separated woman who does not have a connection with the wedding rings.
It is the reality of where you are in YOUR LIFE right now. A statement of how you are feeling.
putting back the rings on to 'play the part' would be just that.. a facade, not the reality of the situation.
I lived a facade for over 10 years.. and it was very much a 'perfect couple' 'successful couple' 'happy family'... in reality so not true.
Be true to yourself.
The ring to me is a symbol of the Love he has for you.
If it is no longer that symbol.. then it is just jewelry... wear it on the other hand if you like the rings.
Or don't wear it... it is up to you. He means nothing to him apparently.
