Does that really work when you are single and want to go somewhere and be LEFT ALONE? For MOST of us it does!

Yeah. I am unmarried and I wear rings on any finger that it fits and looks good on. And ditto about not being interested in strange men approaching me for dates right off the bat. Be my platonic friend first. And if you aren't interested in being my friend unless you can date me, then don't approach me at all.

I don't like men that are only interested in being nice to a woman when they have a romantic or sexual interest in her.

I don't flipping get it and it makes me frustrated. It's on the wedding finger. To me the wedding finger is the wedding finger. I suppose that's not the case? Because sometimes you see a silver band and some other thing on the same finger and think no way is that a wedding band. That thing looks like it was a bubble gum prize. But maybe it is! I don't flipping know!
So ladies do you wear things on your wedding finger? Why? Why would women wear something on their wedding finger if they are not married? I'm sure you known guys are confused easily.
If you do see a ring on the finger but looks like something other than a wedding ring or an engagement ring than what are the guidelines with the ring code?
Yep, I sure do wear my wedding band on my left ring finger. You can tell it's a wedding band because it's a diamond eternity ring.

Yep. I wear a diamond band on my wedding finger. Not all the time, but often. I bought the ring as a present to myself, in NYC a few years ago. I love it, and that's the finger it fits best. I don't really care if someone thinks it's wedding band. All they have to do is ask me.

To confuse the OP some more, in some cultures, you wear the wedding band on the right ring finger.

I did however just learn in a video from a prior post that I am one of those nothing guys. Apparently the guys with the gimmick of sorts are getting it all. I never realized I am the denim middle of the road guy. How interesting. I'm not the rocker, the jock, the biker, the this, the that. I'm just mr plain.
My plan- become the something guy and get to the bottom of every ring.
I need a gimmick. I may have to become Nikki Sixx.
You do not need a gimmick. Your posts here are funny! Trust me, Ting2, funny trumps practically every other card. A lot of us girls like hairless (or hair-free) guys too.

Oh wait, you're from New Jersey. That could be a problem.

(KIDDING!)

I'm divorced; when I was married I always wore my wedding ring on my left ring finger and now I never wear a ring on that finger. But that is due to personal preference.

Yeah, a lot of married women I know don't wear their wedding ring, but they might wear some ring that is matching their outfit or something. Some people's wedding stuff is so gaudy and ostentatious, they don't want to wear it everyday.

Sorry...you're going to have to get past using the ring to see if someone's married. Has never worked reliably for us women trying to see if a guy is single.

It always would for me if I had one. I would wear it with pride. I'd get two.... a cheap one for work and my good one she gave me.
