I can't wear my wedding ring for long periods of time. I might go 1-3 days, but the whole time I am miserable and can't stop thinking about it, and so I eventually take it off. I will go weeks without putting it back on. I feel like it is suffocating my finger, squeezing the veins on my finger, and I feel like I can feel my pulse all around the ring, and like my finger is going to burst. The thing is, it's loose, not even tight, but it still feels like this to me. The indention it makes around my finger from prolonged wearing is disturbing to me.
So just don't wear it, right? But it causes mega problems with my wife. She doesn't understand why I don't wear it. I try to explain the discomfort, but it's beyond her understanding as a NT woman.
Does anyone else have this issue? I have suggested TRYING - as I don't know if this will be OK for me - putting it on a chain and wearing it as a necklace, but she isn't for that idea.
