Just about everyone I know looks for a wedding ring to see if a woman (sometimes, men too) is married. So what does one do if one is allergic to metals (long periods of skin contact)? Buying a ring and then wearing it only when going out seems to me to be a waste of money. Not buying or not wearing a ring seems to me to be inviting trouble. Comments, anyone? -- From the lunch hour of hound!llfe.
