Why Men Don't Wear Wedding Ring

...I give you this ring as a sign of my love to you. To honor and cherish you as my wife/husband, companion and partner. I place this ring upon your hand as a sign of my love and fidelity...

These are the words that comes out of the mouth of a man and woman when exchanging marital vows at the altar of God. Today, these words mean nothing to most married men, after the wedding ceremony the ring goes under the carpet to wine and dine with ants and roaches.
I thought wedding ring was suppose to be a symbol of love- the love you feel for each other and commitment to always put it on as a remembrance of the day you decide to spend the rest of your life with that special person. Nowadays some men don't value the wedding band.

A family friend of mine once told me when I requested he give me reason or reasons why he doesn't wear his wedding ring, he says "because I don't like wearing jewellery". This kept me wondering if that is the only reason. hmmmm

A lot of guys do this nowadays, they spend huge amount of money trying to get a wedding ring and  after that, they abandon it at home. For me I see it as a way of feeling you are still in the market. So girls would be deceived and wont know you are married...ladies take note oh.

I saw this article on Punch Newspaper that talked about why men don't wear wedding rings. And the reasons men gave were so hilarious and to me out of point;

                                   ''...I don’t like jewellery and the few days that I wore it, it made
                                    mark on  my  finger and I didn’t like it. I wish I could use it but
                                    I just can’t because it’s not convenient. It is not comfortable, simple.”

                                   ''...I forgot my wedding ring at home...''

                                   ''...Due to the nature of my job, I cant wear wedding rings...''

                '                 ''...Am not proud of the quality of ring...''


The funniest part is that when they were asked if they will allow their wives go around without her wedding ring, the men out rightly said NO... that's selfishness.

"The idea of wearing the ring has always been but it has not sparked controversy as much as it does now. Taking a brief look at history. In the olden days, men and women used it and they were very proud of it, but nowadays, “men don’t place much emphasis on it and that is why you see most married men not wearing it. It was a thing of pride then but due to infidelity now, most men shun it as if it’s not important and they come up with loads of excuses.”

Now I ask, why do you think some men avoid wearing their wedding rings?

As a married man,  do you agree with the school of thoughts that says that taking off your ring shows a high level of infidelity?

If you are a woman, would you allow your husband move around without his ring?
