With this ring ?? - 01/17/00 02:18 AM
Marriage rings... To me, my ring and my wife's have always meant commitment and that love we have for each other. My wife ditched her rings, like 4 weeks into her affair, and especially when she moved out (6 wks in) and told people at work about her "separation" she took them off and put them away. I had mine on for awhile, but when I lost weight it actually kept falling off. Initially I took it off not to lose it, and it still is pretty loose. In my last session with S Harley, he mentioned I should still be wearing my ring. I tried for a couple of days, (it still kept slipping), but I was just uncomfortable wearing it again. I know my love for my wife has slipped (no deposits on her end obviously) and my committment level is getting low too. Not to mention people at work have pressured me not to respect my wife or her behavior, by still keeping my ring on. (I know its peer pressure). I still am not sure how much it actually shows or does not show to my wife. She knows how I feel, that I still want us to work on our marriage, and I still send her cards. Does me wearing a ring really mean all that to her or even to me at this time? Any feedback or thoughts would be appreciated.
