My husband went out with friends, and took his wedding ring off...what should I do?

About 3 months ago, my husband went out with his single friend for his birthday. He told me that it was just going to be the guys, and that's probably why I wasn't invited. Well, now, 3 months later, i find over 20 pictures on his friends MySpace page of his birthday night. Pictures with his friend and some girls drinking at bars. Well, in some of the pictures, i can see his wedding ring is on, but on most of them, he is not wearing his ring at all!!! So, at some point during the night, he had to have taken it off...he returned home with it on. OBVIOUSLY this is very suspicious...but he doesn't show signs of cheating, but i do always catch him in these little white lies. Our sex life is very good and he seems happy, but whats with not wearing the ring for half the night??? Any ideas?? Should I be worried that he cheated on me that night?

    Seems to me, he was certainly looking for something, otherwise why try to hide the fact that you are married?

    Keep your eyes wide open with this boy!

    What Jordan doesn't understand is that this is a very serious sign. Your husband is/ was clearly trying to pretend that he wasn't married. For what reason, who knows. The fact that at some point he was either ashamed or embarrassed to be a married man is a huge red flag. He may have not cheated on you that night, but he does sound like a potential cheater. BTW, cheaters often have very good sex lives at home, it's not about that. He could be a sex addict who can't get enough! You have no choice but to show him the photos, and ask him point blank why his ring was off. Why was he trying to appear un married? Then divorce his cheating ***.

    Well yes and no! It all depends if you husband has ever cheated before and if you guys have trust issues. If yes then this is something you have to address ASAP , do some investigating on who was there etc and see if anyone will tell you what happened. If not.. then bring it up but I wouldn’t torture myslef over it. Besides you said he did come home to you .. if he came home at a reasonable hour you know he didn’t go home with anyone else and he went home to you! Men do and say really stupid things when they are with their friends that they might really not mean but they do it to impress the guys, to fit in etc.( trust me I am learning this as I go). But if things are great like you say they are and your husband only goes out with his boys on special occassions then don’t worry to much about it.. boys will be boys whether we like it or not. You should deff address this but don’t freak out nor acusse him!

    I suppose that would depend on if he ever takes his ring off at other times.

    Personally I think that it is disrespectful for a husband to take off his wedding ring while he is in a social setting.

    I think you should come right out and ask him and see how he responds. You will know if he is lying or not. There is no reason whatsoever for a married man to take his ring off when he goes out without his wife. Ask him what he would do if it had been you in the pics without your ring on!

    First, I think you should confront him about it. Ask him why he took it off. Of course he may just lie but at least you asked. I think it's suspicious that he took it off but came home with it on. Maybe you should start taking your wedding ring off and going out with the girls and see what he says.

    he may not have cheated but if he took his wedding ring off he's sure open to the idea of it. he probably wanted to be able to hit on other girls without them knowing hes married. even if he didnt actually intend to have sex, enjoying the attention of flirting will eventually lead to that. theres not enough information to tell whether he cheated or not, but he will eventually if hes the type of guy to take his wedding ring off. it shows he craves attention, flirting and misses the single life.

    It's not just a ring it's a symbol.If hes afraid to show it that's just not cool.I hate it when people say it's no big deal.Why do you wear a ring in the first place!

  • 1 decade ago

    I'd be suspicious. But 1st I would talk to him about it. If you don't trust him... well thats a problem in the first place. I'd go out with the boys :) Just to see how he acts around his friends and other women.

    Source(s): Personally I fully trust my bf and like that other girls hit on him, even when he flirts back. I know who he's going home with and I completely understand that his is going to find other women attractive... it's natural right?

    if he was in any of the pictures with other women than you should have a problem.. i would be just a little suspicious single guys and married men should not be hanging out. If the single bunch come around and want your husband to go out again you need to put your foot down and remind them your hubby is not single.

    Source(s): my husbands brothers are single and they always want him to go with them

    No - and I am being 100% honest here, I get hit on roughly twice as frequently with the ring on than off.

    Most of my friends take our rings off if we're going out drinking.

    I don't want to loose another ring if the ****-hits-the-fan.

    My first ring is on the bottom of Lake Whitmoore... I learned how to water ski with it on.
