I used to. I haven’t in about 5 years. I never could sleep in rings and always used to take them off as soon as I was home.
I WAH now and don’t wear them to the gym or hot yoga or walking, etc…and I don’t anymore to grocery store.
I’m not a jewelry person
This is me--I don't sleep or shower or workout with jewelry on, and only wear it when I'm "getting dressed"-- for the office or going out. If I'm working from home or on the weekend running errands or whatever--nope. DH doesn't sleep or shower with his ring on, but he other than that he always wears it.
DH's parents always had their rings on. I'm not sure MIL ever took hers off. My mom always wears her rings. My dad had his cut off when he broke his finger when I was a kid and never wore a ring again after that.
All long-lasting marriages: ILs 70 years, my parents 60 years and counting, DH and me 35 years.
