I Did Not Want... To Make Her Wet💧... Or Did I... 😊

Note : A F F is deleting words in the text. Please be patient.

It was early, last Sunday morning. I made a left and turned my car, towards the marina. The previous night's rain, had left an inviting, six inch deep, mirrored pool of water. I considered the most obvious - 'irrational male option'. You know the one! That's where I gun the car and drive like an idiot. The one where I forge, an unrepentant hellbent path, down the middle of the street. The ten foot shower, that would be sprayed, on either side of my hurtling car, would make for an impressive show. If only there had been, anyone there - to watch. Then.... I saw her.

She was tall and fit and my kinda gal. She was walking her tiny dog - a fluffy white Shih Tzu . They hugged the very edge, of the only bits... of dry sidewalk remaining. Their heads were bowed as they tip toed carefully along. She was sharply dressed, in a short black skirt, white runners and a beige sweater that sparkled... with finely sewn glitter. I perched my arm, on the outside of my open window and slowed, to almost zero. I didn't want to make any waves.

She must have thought, that I had something to say. She took out the ear buds, from her phone, and stopped and looked at me. I hadn't planned on saying anything. I was watching the water, as it sloshed and splashed up my tires. But now, well... I felt compelled. I said the first dumb thing, that came to mind.

"I don't know who's cuter; you... or your dog."

She laughed. I continued.

"Does your husband usually let you walk your dog alone, this early? You never know what type of strange people, you'll run into."

She laughed again and spoke. "Oh... I'm not married. But I notice... YOU'RE wearing a ring. Perhaps you should be careful who YOU, speak with," she replied, smiling coyly.

I hesitated... just for a second. Was that an invitation?

"No... I'm not married either. Gold is my colour and it matches my watch. Look out for the water. I don't want to get you all wet," I waved... and slowly eased on... by.

Now THAT... was lame! I was kinda speechless. A rarity for me. I usually have a glib reply. She had a point, about the ring. I've worn that ring for all the years I was married and all the years, since I wasn't. I've worn it forever! It fits nice. I am used to it. It's gold and I feel odd without it. I am constantly nudging my thumb against it, playing with it... twirling it round and around. Do you know what I mean?

As I drove into the marina, I pulled off the ring and put it on my right hand. "There!" I thought. Simple enough. Looks fine and... on the right hand, it doesn't symbolize marriage. Does it? I steered my car into a spot and put it into 'Park'. Things... just didn't, feel right. My ring, was rubbing up against the shifter and my steering wheel... and everything. The short experiment, was over. The ring was going back, on my left hand.

Seven minutes later and that fucking ring, was still stuck, on my right hand. Yes... I eventually pried it, off my swollen finger. I pushed it back on my left hand... where it belonged.

Some things, are just meant to be. Some things just won't change... even, if they should. My ring looks fine, where it is. Heck... it even keeps the flies away... if I flash it.

What do you think?

Quite a few people, used to mention the fact, that I still wear my ring 💍 . And now they don't. They've gotten used to it. I got used to it. I like the way it feels on my hand. Is it a security blanket? Good question. I don't know. Do I really need to find an answer? 🤔 Do you wear yours?

When I meet new people... the ring rarely comes up. I say that I'm divorced but I still like to wear it... 💍
Oh and it really does... keep the flies away... if you know what I mean.... 😊

You know that's a great pick up line I don't know who's cuter you or your dog. And apparently it was a hit with her too. I think you should of asked her out on a date, as she did seem interested as well. Thanks for sharing another great read on the life of Paul. I hope your day continues to be a great one..

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

Have you thought about resizing it to fit your middle finger instead of your ring finger?

I kept the tiny diamond out of my wedding ring and sold the setting for the value of the gold. Had the diamond put into a setting for a necklace. Now every few years I trade the solitaire back in and upgrade to a larger diamond. All the original ring is long gone but I have a nice solitaire necklace out of the deal! I like carets!

If I see a ring I walk on by. If he tells me he is divorced but still wears it, I am not likely to believe him. I wonder how many women would have flirted with you but didnt because they saw the ring. Missed opportunities.

Hummingbirds? 🤔 hmmm....
I take mine off as well... when I get home.
Seems I've grown attached to it. Ya know what I mean?
If things were ever to change in your life... would you still wear it? 🤔

Oh... I know that line worked... We both laughed. Id made a connection.. But seriously.... I was parked in a foot of water. I didn't want to press and I figured... if she walks her dog there, I'll probably see her again.
She did surprise me with the ring remark. My ring never puts on a roadblock.. unless I don't feel like playing.
You know what I mean?
I don't have to ask you about your ring. But if ever things were to change would you wear it

It IS a wedding band. But no... it's not a roadblock... unless I want it to be. 😊
So... what did you do with your ring? 💍 Chuck it?

Ta know... there is a story with this ring.
When we first split up... I thought it was bullshit. I didn't think our issues were beyond resolving. And.... till death do us part.... meant something.
Then.... after a while.. I just plain got used to it. Ya know?
I couldn't be bothered now. I don't give a hoot. And it doesn't put up any flags. I just share my story.
And you know me and stories... right? 😗
So.. what did you do with yours?

Wow... Great ideas! 👍
I didn't have any diamonds in my band. But now... I just wear it as jewelry. It really does match my gold watch and chain.
If you met a guy (me ( and I was wearing my ring... would you find it weird or would my story make sense to you? 🤔

Wow... you're harsh... 😊 lol 😂
Ok... but let's say that I have a good reason for wearing the ring.
Like I... like to wear it? 🤔
Naw... the ring doesn't stop 🛑 me from flirting. or them from flirting back.
And you know me... I'm so open and honest with people,.... the ring - if it ever was an issue - is soon forgotten.
So you wouldn't talk with me? 🤔
Come on... I'm fun! lol... 😊
Well... I've had the Damn thing for so long I'd feel naked without it.
What did you do with yours?

hmmm... Well... you could always do what Classynails did - take out the diamond, sell the ring and set the stone in a necklace..
Well... that's what she did.
It's totally different for women, isn't it
À man simply has a band. It's just a plain looking ring. 💍

The day we separated the ring came off, and has never gone back on. I sold the ring, for an obscenely low amount, none of my children wanted it.

Sometimes, I miss having a ring on, my thumb will go to my finger to try and spin it. I have a cheap, flashy ring that I wear on that finger on certain occasions, if I want to be left alone, lol.

Naughty is pretty right!! I would leave if someone I was supposed to meet showed up with his ring on- lotta unsolved mental/emotional things going on that I have no desire to learn about. It's symbolizes a link and the atmosphere is not totally open. And no I do not even know where mine is- ?? safe deposit box as an hedge against a financial crisis?? Guess I will have to go take a look

Its a dead stop for any flirting from me if I see a wedding ring. So normally yes I wouldnt get the story behind why the ring is being worn. I did keep the engagement ring in case my daughter wants it some day. So far she doesnt.

What did I do with mine?

I resized my engagement ring to fit my right hand. I took both wedding bands - mine and my late husband's - and had them remade into a necklace ….. which I later sold during a financial crisis.

That's funny... and sure. I can relate. I never thought of my ring, as anything more than, just... a gold ring that looks good.
Anyway.. now you know... you won't be surprised.. 😊
The day you separated? Wow.
Were you surprised... or were you expecting it? 🤔

True... but if you'd spent some time... chatting and getting to know the person... you'd write that ring thing.. OFF.
Let's face it... if we met.. We'd be fine... 😊
Iike gold. What color do you like? 🤔
It's a habit and a feeling. Years create that. Don't they?

Your daughter? Oooo... that's interesting. Do you think she'll be interested? How many movies have you seen where THAT ring gets refuses... omg...
Anyway... if it came to me... you'd figure out in a hurry.... that the ring was just a shallow imprint... of what went best with my skin tone, my watch.. and the colour of my eyes... We'd laugh... 😊
No?

Ya know what? If I wasn't so lazy... and un imaginative... I might have done something.
But you know what? I asked someone today... if they've ever noticed my ring and they replied : "No." And then they laughed... They were surprised that they never had seen it.
Anyway... I think... That ring is just an excuse for someone to say Hello,... or for someone to walk away.
I like open minds. You? 🤔

Like most women, if I see a wedding band I wouldn't make an approach. If he somehow got me in conversation, I would mention it and listen to the story. I would try to be open minded about it but a part of me would always be skeptical until time/events proved him right.

IF your feeling comfortable with a ring on your ring finger , go buy yourself a ring with your birthstone and pack away the wedding ring.

my wedding rings are packed away and willed to my kids.
