Going to drop the kids at their cousins and then go shopping for a new wedding ring - mine got stuck on a few weeks ago so I had to break it to get it off. Lesson learned: take it off once in a while and dont leave it on for years at a time.

Did you need to take it off for something specific? I've taken mine off probably twice in five years. My knuckles are quite large compared to my fingers so it's hard to take off but the ring isn't tight when on.

Oh great thanks for that new nightmare! Only been married 3 months but I've already started to notice mine is leaving a line where I wear it, I'm starting to try and leave it off as often as possible so as to reduce the chance of giving away clues to private detectives if I'm ever on the run.

Hope you find a nice new ring that you love, and maybe pick up a small decorative dish or something for your bedside table and start putting it in there at night!

I had to get my wedding ring resized to a smaller fit, as I kept flinging it across the room whenever I was wildly gesticulating. It's now about the right size, although my finger has a wild range of circumference depending on the weather. Today it's about right, but in winter I can still accidentally turn my ring into a projectile.

TIL: gesticulating is spelt with a g, not a j.

Haha, relatable, I do a lot of hand moisturising so there have been a couple of near misses here also. Wild gesticulation gang!
