Wedding rings?
This question comes up out of honest curiosity.
Recently, I sold our wedding silver. 6 place settings & a few servings pieces. We had not used it since 1986. Sold for close to $2,000. We aren't married anymore I guess. My wife died after 51 years. I gave her engagement ring to my sister. A beautiful marquis cut yellow diamond surrounded by small diamonds. That shattered me. It still does.
Now about the gold wedding bands. Hers is white gold. I have had a thought about selling them, but I am hesitating big time. Its not like they will ever be used again. Putting them on a chain around my neck would be painful. I look at hers & I see her hands. It triggers me terribly. I don't want to erase her at all. I am surrounded by her art & her taste. Am i a horrible person to consider selling them? Members of this group are really the only people that might identify with my thoughts. I'm 17 months out if that matters. 76 years old & miserable.
