Just thought i'd ask if anyone believes in old wives tales?

I was going through my jewllery box the other day and spotted a ring i hadn't worn for years...so i thought i'd wear it. The only finger it fits on is the wedding finger.

So my friend dropped into day an she spotted it then said it was bad luck to wear a ring on that finger!! But she wasn't 100% sure as she said it was an old wives tale.

What do you think..

I don't really believe in old wives tales but I don't see how that is a problem wearing it on your right hand. I dunno what hand you put a wedding band on over there but here it would be on the left ring finger. I heard from a lady in England they wear theirs on their right ring finger...

What I am trying to say is I don't see anything wrong with wearing one on the oppote hand that you'd wear a wedding band on..lol

tru..hmm...i got it on the left side. thanks

So in your country do you wear wedding bands on the right hand then?

no we wear them on the left hand.

but the ring i have on there wont fit any other finger...

hmmm...LOL..maybe the bad luck in that would come with the fact that men may assume you are married if you have a ring on that finger..

i wouldnt consider that bad luck... i'm not looking for anyone atm, so it might help me.....

Sorry..I thought this thread was about boxing..Ya know? the ring?..

It's your hand, and your ring..Wear it where you will..

Old Wives' Tales are just that! Old tales..They mean nothing..

Enjoy your ring...Bob..

I like wives tales..theyre hot...especially when they bend over... oops, that was kinda rude... umm..i guess i would have to say, i dont belive in stories like that...i dont know if bad luck/good luck exists..i think everyone makes their own luck

belle its only old wives tales just like walking under a ladder they say you get basd luck if you really beleive in this old hog wash you won't do anything at all

If I see a woman with a wedding ring on then I assume she is married. So if you are looking for someone don't wear it there. Maybe put it on a necklace?

thanks for thoughts everyone. it's good to know wat others think..

I think if you like the ring, wear it on whatever finger you want to wear it on! If it only fits one and you want to wear it on a different one, take it to the jewlers and get it sized.

As for wearing it on your left ring finger, it might encourage men to ask you out even more since everyone always wants what they don't think they can have.

I have worked with women that wear a ring on wedding finger to slow down getting hit on, but bad luck I don't think so, unless you believe it. Dr.
