I’m single in private as well as public. I was married for two years. 5/17 to 5/19. Married at age 52. Divorced at age 54. Married a covert passive aggressive narcissist. I knew nothing about narcissism until my marriage had exploded in my face. I don’t see anything changing either. But I have not given up hope that I might someday finally find a real wife. I wore my ring until the judge declared me divorced. When I was working I took the ring off of my finger. But it was visible on a carabiner with my car keys attached to my belt loop. I took my marriage very seriously all of the time.
I completely agree about the wedding ring. I am wondering about the example that you gave. Was the man not wearing it to cause a problem or was he not wearing it as a result of other problems in the marriage. Of course he is equally responsible for the marriage, I’m just saying it could be a result of other issues that needed to be dealt with.
I wear my ring and if anyone asks me I tell them that I'm married. But I feel like I do seem single in public. Honestly, I'm not happy/satisfied with my marriage. So I'm not open and bragging about my marriage.
