I was married and opted out of rings also. waste of money. jewelry uncomfortable anyway. I don’t want anything around my fingers, neck, or my wrists, no.
Also I get extremely angry when men buy me flowers. What a waste of money. They’re overpriced and they’re going to die.
Let’s spend our money on skydiving and traveling and adventures.
Yup, we didn’t bother with rings either. I wanted to retire but needed health insurance, so we decided to finally get married after being together for 22 years. We kept it as minimal as we could. No ceremony (in Pennsylvania you can self-unite thanks to the Quakers), no rings, no name change, no fuss. Nothing changed which is exactly what we wanted!
Hijacking this reply to talk about estate jewelry! It has a better history, it’s probably more well-made, it’s often more beautiful, and it’s cheaper. Plus, you’re recycling!
My wife was upset that the ring I bought was too expensive.
You’ve picked up a gem. Don’t lose her
Gems in rings don’t have a gender. You can refer to them with “it”.
I call them a bunch of cuties. Except Sensei, that dude is not a cutie.
All nouns in languages like latin have genders so the person you are talking to is probably a native latin speaker learning english

I buy potted flowers and we plant them in the back yard.
That’s sweet 🌹
