He looks kind of scary to some people. Like a big biker guy if you know what I mean. He has told me when he has gone into a store, that people act scared of him until they see his wedding ring. Then they seem to think that he must be okay since he has a wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a year or so after our wedding, my wife and I didn't wear any rings, but later on we decided that the rings were necessary to reduce the probability of getting into trouble.

It shows your commitment....usually. I have known women who find a man with a wedding ring a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh okay. Well the reason I ask is because I was wondering if someone said something to the poster about wedding rings not be Biblical and there for they are wrong to have? I have come across people that are like that. People who think that if it isn't pointed out in the Bible then it is wrong to do. I once got into an argument with someone who felt that putting on plays bass on Bible stories was wrong because there is nothing in the Bible telling us to put on plays as a means of teaching Bible stories. Therefor it is wrong to put on a play to teach Bible stories. So I was just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
