So yesterday one of my FH coworkers came up to him, and asked about his ring. FH told him its his engagement ring. And his co worker went on to say how guys arent supposed to wear those, and its a "girl thing." It didn't bother him, hes actually been wearing a ring for awhile (at first we had...

So yesterday one of my FH coworkers came up to him, and asked about his ring. FH told him its his engagement ring. And his co worker went on to say how guys arent supposed to wear those, and its a "girl thing." It didn't bother him, hes actually been wearing a ring for awhile (at first we had promise rings). It didnt bother him, but it offended me a bit. Is it weird for guys wear e-rings? Does any of your FH wear them?

    I realize that wearing a wedding or engagement ring is out of the norm but my wife or future wife shall I say and I plan on getting married very soon. I feel that if I give her a ring why shouldn't I wear a ring to. So that being said, being a guy, I think that I think it's a little unfair that women have to wear an engagement ring but a man doesn't. I'm wearing my engagement ring/ wedding band for a reason. I'm taken by my future wife and she's taken by me. That's a way to symbolize my love for her, and she symbolizing her love for me

    I've actually never heard of a man wearing an engagement ring.

    Women wear engagement rings, because they are usually the recipients of the ring. However, if the guy wants to he can purchase a promise ring, or his own engagement ring to fulfill the promise. The only time a guy truly wears an engagement ring is if the woman asked for his hand in marriage. Relationshipstuff101

    My significant other doesn’t have an engagement ring that he wears and I have never heard of anyone doing this

    if I were you and you both like it then I would never let a co-workers judgements bother me
