To Wear Or Not Wear Your Engagement Ring - What Do You Think?

So, it is well known here that I give Rachel Bilson a great deal of crap for not wearing her engagement ring and then when she is called out on it she immediately gets photographed wearing it for the next two or three days. Then, when she thinks no one is paying attention she goes back to not wearing it. It is just one big cycle and I am all about breaking the cycle. Because The New York Daily News is a professional organization they called Rachel's publicist and asked her why she wears it only when being called out about it. Her publicist said, "The engagement is on. She just doesn't always wear the ring."

You know what? Fair enough. I am willing to give Rachel the benefit of the doubt here. How many of you when you got engaged never wore the ring? Did you not wear it because you were ashamed or because it didn't match what you were wearing? Perhaps you had a job where you couldn't wear jewelry. In my multiple engagements I have found that when a woman says yes, she is generally willing to wear the ring pretty much all of the time. Am I wrong here? Rachel will go days and weeks without wearing it. I thought they were supposed to be a symbol of commitment and a guy saying, "look I got her a ring so all of you other guys back off." When you can take it on and off your finger without a care in the world it is kind of like the friend who calls you but is not important enough to get their name added to your phone. If they stop calling there won't be any trace of them and if Rachel doesn't wear the ring then it is like the engagement never existed.
