*cringe* Listen not to these unmarried fools, Col. Be afraid. Be VERY Afraid. Do everything you can to assure her. Bring flowers, take her out, write her name in the sky, rope the moon, stop the earth's rotation, something like that.....and...
Good luck....

That's nothing. I lost my wedding ring in a parking lot somewhere, and couldn't find it (I was wearing it on my pinky finger because my ring finger was swollen). She didn't give me a hard time about it; I just went and bought a new one which looked exactly like the old one.
I suggest you make up to her with cunnilingus.

I'm inclined to agree with Chardok here. When something like that happens, the norm is for them to jump to conclusions. Rapidly.
Explaining about the hair gel probably won't satisfy her, because she will most likely be firmly convinced that you did it in order to score with a co-worker.
Soo... basically try anything you can to get back in her good graces.

If there's that much distrust in the marriage, I would say that you need to work on that issue first, and the ring issue second (no offense).

Comedy option, have him tell her he took it off so he could hit on chicks.
Or something in that general direction.

AHHHHH!!!!!!! It is a well known fact that pissed off women lose their sense of humor. NEVER JOKE WITH ENRAGED FEMALES!!

Well, Mike I wouldn't say it's an issue of distrust, per se'. Hasn't something happened to you that shocked so as to blind you from reason? (If only for a short while?) Probably she'll come around in a few hours, but a very nice gesture (And women LOVE gestures, especially when it's the middle finger waggling back and forth on her...well, never mind that, though, do that tonight, if she let's you off the couch) would be to get her flowers or something. My ExWife was of the opinion you NEVER EVER take off a wedding ring short of a complete avulsion of all flesh on your ring finger. I imagine you've been married for alot longer than I was, But i learned the flower "Trick" and the chocolate "Squirm". Just assure her it was an honest mistake, present her with the present, and kiss up for a week. Things'll be fine, I'm sure

In other news, a man's head was found in a dumpster behind a McDonald's. Concern has been raised over what the fast food chain is putting in its "Big Macs." McDonald's corporation responded that nothing is out of the ordinary, and that their ingredients are the same as always.

I've forgotten my wedding ring a couple of times, though I usually figure out that I'm missing it. It can be embarrasing, but Sherri goes pretty easy on me...

Oddball note here. For HE operators there are probably a grand total of 0 who actually wear their wedding band on their finger. Why you may ask?
Well we do lots of maintenance of very large pieces fo equipment with nice little heavy duty electrical systems which have the tendency to arc towards nearby metal. Shit in Operator's school we removed watches and dog tags when we came to the lot before we were within 100 feet of the damn things.

He won't exactly be able to make threads about this will he.

Women get *this* pissed about the ring not being on your finger, even if it's an honest mistake?
Geez, makes me glad I never got married...

That's a terrible, terrible idea. I'm not even married and I'd go off the deep end.
But I've been informed that I'm rather moody. I'm probably not the person to ask. I'd probably be bothered if my husband left his wedding ring at home and we'd probably have a talk about it, but not to the degree as, "I'm going to kick you out, you piece of shit" kind of angry.
It'll blow over.

Wait a minute, are you saying that leaving your ring at home is going to shock someone into an irrational rage? Seriously, why would that happen unless she has a problem with trust?

That stuff works short-term, but long-term, you need to build the kind of relationship where she is not so eager to jump to the worst conclusion.

Rage is an awfully strong word, but I do see your point. Still, Some people are just pessimistic like that. I was thinking more along the lines of her seeing the ring and being shocked in the sense that:
She sees the ring, Gasps and thinks to herself, "How could he have left that? The symbol of our marriage, like it was nothing but a watch!"
Not necessarily that she was thinking that he was diddling the secretary; of course, maybe she was thinking that, who knows but the Colonel.

Yes, go at her like her pussy is an all you can eat buffet.
HDS: If he does that, you can rest assured his wife will send his nuts flying one way and himself flying the other.
