Idiot salesperson said "no". Had I bought the ring and wore it right away for a few hours, I would have had an allergic reaction. Then she tried to sell me one of those items (I forget the exact name) that I could put on my ring to keep it from falling off. So, once again, I asked if it was 14k. She said "no".

I hadn't thought about looking into getting it resized. That's a good suggestion. Also, I'll now try it to see if it fits on my middle finger. Thank you for that suggestion!

Sure thing! So many people don't know how to do anything right anymore.

My mother gave me her wedding ring, platinum and diamonds, when I was 25, I always loved it and have worn it ever since.

My own wedding ring is a plain platinum band, worn closest to my heart, then my mother's.

On my right ring finger I wear my grandmother's 50th anniversary ring, a one carrot diamond in a gold filagree setting.

Neither ever are removed. My mother's hand was smaller than mine so it will no longer come off.
My grandmother's hand was larger and the ring spins around on my finger, but it still never comes off.

Too afraid to lose it.

Early 60s male. I've outgrown (gotten fat ) the most recent band, but when I could wear it, I never took it off. Now I wear a bigger man's ring I've had for years on that hand because I can't wear it on my right hand (see above).

Never while at home, and always when I go out. I do take it off when using the restroom though. I getting water/soap under it while washing my hands.
