It upsets me, I don't know why. It doesn't change the fact that we're married, but seeing him without his ring makes me sad.
My hubby is the type of person to lose anything that isn't bolted to his body. I think he has to get a new set of house keys cut every other month because he loses them. We picked out each others bands and he told me when I did, not to get him anything expensive because he might lose it (I should have known, every watch I ever got him he's lost).
Well, I didn't listen. I figured how could you lose something if you never take it off? Trouble is, he always takes the ring off when he gets home from work. We've been doing lots of construction work on our house, so he would take the ring off. But he never put it in the same place. I was forever picking it up and placing it in a safe place.
Then last night I noticed I hadn't seen it in awhile. First he thought I put it in a safe place, then he tells me that its in the house somewhere because he would never take it off at work. Trouble is, he doesn't know where it is. We scoured the house and can't find it. He doesn't seem to think it's a big deal.
Here's the kicker. It's not so much that I spent a lot of money on it (it's platinum with 18K gold on the edges), but I had a hard time buying it because it's a ring the designer no longer makes and finding his size was hard. So it's pretty much irreplaceable.
What do I do now? Wait until it shows up (like he thinks it will) or should I buy him a cheap replacement ring so he has a ring to wear? Just the fact that he 'lost' the ring we exchanged our vows with on our wedding day is making me so upset.
Pray that it turns up. Sorry for rambling, just had to vent on this Friday night
