...well potentially lost, I'm still keeping my hopes high that we can still find it.
But I feel so upset right at this minute. I was supposed to get ready for my little tot's play class when I found out that my car is still not working. Hb didn't check my car battery which he promised to on Tuesday. Well on Tuesday, I found out my battery went flat again when I was about to take my son to his playdate. Good thing hb was working from home so I used his car instead. But then he said he's gonna take care of my battery, but obviously he forgot. And yesterday, we didn't go out at all because I was busy with chores, and today we're home stuck again.
Aside from my car not working, he also dropped the bomb on me that he couldn't find his wedding band (again)! When I asked him when was the last time he saw it, he said he's been looking for it for a couple of weeks now. What, you're just telling me now?? I've vacuumed, threw garbage, and flipped house since then and he's only telling it to me now. He knew I was gonna get mad. According to him whenever he washes his hands he puts his ring 'all the time' in his pocket. Well in fairness maybe once or twice I found his ring in his pants' pocket when I checked before washing them. But then there were times when I also found it on the bathroom counter, or beside his laptop or on the kitchen island. His wedding band is a bit loose, more so now that fingers shrink on cold weather so he removes it only when he's at home and he always wears it when he goes out. But I knew though that sooner or later that ring will get lost somehow, considering the number of times that I've seen it lying around the house with an inquisitive little tot too.
So there, sorry but I just have to vent this out. Well I don't know, but I guess I'm just being sentimental and I just feel upset that this symbolic token of our commitment is possibly gone. He said we'll look for it together when he gets home from work, but I guess I better start looking for it now. So where do you think I should look for this tiny little ring? Has this ever happened to you? How did you feel?

sorry to hear that. hubby lost his wedding ring when he was in Georgia when he got sent out working. I was upset even accused him giving it to someone or take it off when he goes out. LOL but luckily for some reason house insurance give us some money for it. I got no idea how and why we get the money from his wedding ring. But anyhow it was good imagine we got the money more than we paid for both rings.
ReplyDeleteI hope you guys will find it.
Hubby lost his wedding ring since 2006 while working around the house when andrew and I was in the Philippines for vacation. He said, he hide somewhere, but until now he can't find and yes I am very upset and his upset too because I keep nagging him to look for it. During our 10 years anniversary I wanted to get one for him to have a blessing from the priest, but again he said, he will find and until now he don't have a ring, sometimes I take it off mine to be fair we both not wearing our wedding ring, but I feel strength so I wear it back. Our wedding band is very important to us because that our token of our commitment .Now your post remind me to ask my husband again if he find his ring, it's been a long time I never ask him since last summer.
ReplyDeleteI've been there. My hubby lost his in our kitchen years ago (another house) and we never found it. I was pretty ticked at the time but I got over it. We bought him another one in a completely different style that fit better. No more problems. I should bring that up and rub it in again, huh?
ReplyDeleteOh, I think I will be mad too if it happened to me. My husband never take his band off unless he has to work the complicated wiring(s) in the plane. He used to take off when taking a shower and forgot to wear it that day (but never lost).I joked at him about probably he wanted to feel like single again, he thought I was serious so after that, he never took it off. (only when he needs to). Maybe you need to look under the bed, or any furniture and in the laundry room floor? Good luck:)
ReplyDeleteOooh, this happened to me and also to dh. I found dh's ring in the middle compartment of the SUV. When I lost my ring, I found it in the hamper. Now I put my rings in the ring holder that Vicky gave me. I hope you guys find his ring, if not, then just try to put things in perspective. :(
ReplyDeleteIt never happened yet, but I think I would be very upset and hurt if Dana lost his ring, more so if he takes it off. I remember when we got married and I put the ring on his finger, he said it will remain there forever, and true to his words, he never took his ring off except one time when he worked so hard in the back yard building a retaining wall with the use of bricks, he didn't want his ring to be chipped so he took it off and gave it to me so he won't lose it. I really appreciate it so much.
ReplyDeleteHope you can still find your husband's ring.
It's really sad to lose that very valuable ring! I'm sure, your hubby is also mad of himself like me before. I also had almost lost mine. I've forgotten that I left it in the wash area. Just lucky that nobody ever messed up with that place. That was years ago. By this time it's kept in the safe coz I've outgrown its size and same with hubby.
ReplyDeleteI hope you still can find it. Take care, Mira!
Sayang naman
It happened to me!
ReplyDeleteI've lost my wedding ring years ago... I know it's in some part of my home, but I don't remember where.
The funny thing is that I took it off to wait my finger get "normal" (because of the size of the ring) and then send it to the jewlery to fix the problem. But I needed to have my finger in good shape.
Well, I've put it in a safety place, so safety I forgot where...
awwww, don't get mad at hubby. not that i'm minimizing the importance of it, but we know it's just a symbol and not the end-all-and-be-all of your whole relationship, right?
ReplyDeletehubby and I never had a ring when we got married in vegas and he got our rings after when he went to the philippines. he gave them to me as a christmas gift. we had it blessed but we never really got around to wearing it much. mine was tight and i still have to resize it when we go back home again who knows when. And he doesn't want to wear his because of his work (he's a nurse) and he's scared he might lose it when he takes it off to wash his hands.
but it never really was too much of a big deal. it matters more that we know we're married and we know that we love each other. and we tell everyone who cares to know that we're married. that's the most important part, right?
Hubby can't find his ring, it might be stolen or somewhere in the house don't know where he hide.
