Wedding Shit - Tumblr Posts
So we've been trying to figure out our wedding rings, and I have been so incredibly disappointed to discover that he has absolutely *heinous* taste in jewelry. How the fuck am I supposed to explain to this man that a massive asymmetric industrial statement ring is not a good choice for a wedding band??? What can I even say that isn't already obvious???
@noveical part of the problem is that (according to the jeweler) rings made of funky materials like tungsten and cobalt or whatever can't be cut off in an emergency and also can't be resized... So that narrows down the options a lot because apparently those are the Manly and Badass™ materials and like 75% of men's rings are those... I've been trying to gently steer him toward something more subtle like a cool texture or a squared-off shape. He seems receptive for the most part but he also can tell what I'm doing lol. I'm considering buying him a cheap version of one of the giant pointy ones so he can put it on for 5 seconds and realize how horrible it is to actually wear lmao

@critter-exe I'm not clear on whether they *cannot* cut them off at all, or if it's just that they get shattered into pieces and obliterated when you do, but yeah that's kind of a dealbreaker on those I feel like. Because they do market them as "HARD AS DIAMOND, NEVER EVER GONNA BREAK" which like, okay, but also I can see how that's not actually a good thing in real life lol
I think he would wear a silicone band usually for safety, so it would mostly just be for special occasions, but picking an artsy statement ring for a wedding ring sort of cements that it's decidedly *not* something he's gonna wear often, which feels like not the point??? Idk, I did not expect this turn of events so I don't know what to do with it lmao
I did bring him a band to try, and he couldn't keep it on for more than an hour so that doesn't bode well lol (tbf it is a bit too big, but still - he is not even kind of accustomed to suffering for fashion lmao)

See, that's what I feel like makes sense. Like get a crazy steampunk-whatever-bullshit silicone ring, but the actual ring we're spending money on that you're gonna theoretically have the rest of your life should not look like a $16 Hot Topic ring, nor a $50k American Apparel bent-nail-but-made-of-platinum lmao
Like I guess at least the ones he's looking at aren't also stupidly expensive?? But I never in a million years thought I'd have to talk him into a *simpler* ring lmao like where tf did this come from?? I guess maybe he figures he won't be wearing it often anyway so why not make it fancy?? But he has literally never picked out anything else fancy ever???? He did get a leather jacket for Christmas so maybe that put worms in his brain lmfao

These are literally some of the ones he sent me 😭😭😭
Like you will have 👏 no 👏 skin 👏 left 👏 after wearing one of those for a week, my dude!!!! It seems like he's realizing the edge of the band I brought him to try (very thin D-shaped, so a lil sharp on the inner edge) is annoying, so hopefully that will inform his decisions lmao
Tbh I suspect it's partly because he's just ✨never ever looked at jewelry before✨ so he has no frame of reference on why people pick the things they do and how things wear in real life lmao
However, confession: I actually love that Megan Fox ring 🙈 I don't understand how MGK thinks it would hurt to take off though?? Like I don't see any fuckin thorns, this bitch just made that up lmaoooo (but I've been reading so much about how to set emeralds safely that it does give me big anxiety to think about wearing lol)
