Thread: I lost my wedding ring

Saturday morning I discovered to my horror that I couldn't find my wedding ring anymore.

I remember it on my finger on monday or tuesday, and I know for sure that I didn't have it anymore on friday evening.
I have absolutely no idea where I could have lost it. I checked all the places I've been at work last week, but no luck.
It is equally possible that I took it off at home (I do that whenever I work around the house) and placed it somewhere I can't remember.

My wedding ring is the only physical thing in the whole world that I care about.
My >2500$ collection of rare malt whisky could fall on the floor and I wouldn't really be more than annoyed. My car could be stolen and I'd move on with only a passing regret at the hit on the savings account.
But my wedding ring ... If I don't find it I will miss it till the day I die

However, I am currently reading a book 'black sun' that is based on true events of WWII (the story itself is fiction of course). I went over to wikipedia to check some facts, and I also found pics of the holocaust. Jewish children dying of starvation on the streets. Waiting to fall asleep and never wake up...
And I was humbled...
My ring is important to me, but compared to what other people went through, the loss of a ring is nothing. When I saw those pictures I thought of my daughters and I realized that there are more important things in life.

That being said, if you have a spare prayer lying around that you weren't using for anything too important: I can use any help in getting that ring back around my finger.

We'll definitely pray for you. That's bad news especially if your wife finds out. check the sink drains. etc.

Dead Man Walking!!!! don't let the wife fin out.

Keep looking, my prayers are with you, and good luck.

Two possibilities..
1) She may have it and is keeping it to get you sweatin'
2) If you can't find it, you might as well get a replacement to keep her temper down. The ring is immaterial. What you and your wife have is what really matters.

Uh!

I feel for you!

I've been worried lately that I'd lose mine as well!! Seems a little loose these days.....

Good luck!

I never ever take mine off for fear of putting it somewhere and never finding it again. I hope you find yours.

I do this to my wife when she takes off her engagement or wedding rings and leaves them on the counter near a sink drain.

Bruno, I feel for you! I have our rings insured, as hers and mine together make up 4 months of my gross salary, and I just could not afford to replace mine or hers (Im allergic to gold so I had to get platnum and we both like diamonds ). Hopefully you have yours insured if it is extremely valuable, but even so, I know a new ring wont mean exactly the same thing. The only thing I can tell you is that if you have to buy a new ring, make it special, bring your wife have her help you pick it out and make a big deal out of it...it might not mean the same as the one on your wedding day, but it will be special in its on right.

Here's an idea....renew your vows with a celebration with all your friends and family...and give each other new rings.

Even before I left high school, I had already decided that if I would ever get married, I wanted to have platinum rings.

Mine was Thick... Wide... Heavy... and it costs as much as 1 month gross salary.

And we didn't insure our rings.
