Got rid of my rings today
I had been holding onto some hope that I might feel good about wearing them again someday. I had even worked out a timeline/formula in my head for when I could start to consider it. Recent revelations have ruined the possibility that I will ever want to even look at them again. I had absolutely loved those rings. The memories of getting them were special. I loved the engraving inside. They were just very precious and dear to me, until they weren't.
Chalk this up to yet another thing stolen by infidelity.
It would be cool if I could say that I did something dramatic like throw them in a lake or run them through a wood chipper, but no. The formerly poor person in me just couldn't waste a resource like that. I was able to get a little cash for them, so there's that.
I will continue to wear a silicon band for now.
Please share - what have you done about wearing, or not wearing, rings. Did you get something new, or keep the old ones after some work and healing?
