I bought my wife a wedding set to replace the engagement ring that she lost. I bought it for her for christmas and cant decide whether I should give it to her now or if I should acctually wait until Christmas. She will be without a ring in the meantime and that is difficult to me.

It has to be a tied to christmas because I cant afford to get her anything else as well as this ring for christmas. If I dont give it to her for christmas I cant afford to give her anything for christmas.

She is my wife not Fiance and the reason it is difficult for me is not because I do not trust her. The reason it is difficult is because it is a symbolic thing. It is a token of my love for her. It is difficult for me for her not to have that with her, esp since we dont see each other every day.

There are no trust issues here. She still wears the wedding ring. She lost the engagement ring from our original set so I bought her a new set. NOT ABOUT TRUST!! I trust her implicitly.

Christmas isn't that far away and no matter what she is still your wife (ring or not). Wait until Christmas and make it special. If you feel bothered about her not having a ring in the meantime, get her a generic one somewhere and have a good laugh over it. Tell her she deserves better and then make good on your word. Just don't get all stressed about a ring, they come and go, but she is still your wife!!!

I like the idea someone else before me had about giving her the engagement ring now and the wedding band at Christmas.

You mentioned that she still wears the wedding ring. So that should be sufficient to show that she is married. The new set can wait til Christmas to be given as Christmas present.

You know your going to give it to her now, so..................But most interesting about your question, and the only reason I am answering is your statement about how it would be "difficult" for you to wait. What's up with that? Not to rain on your parade or anything, but I would say you are very insecure about you fiance for a reason. If you want this to be a lasting marriage, you need to find the trust that is missing between the two of you. If for some odd reason I am way off, I apologize. Good luck!

Well it would be pretty cool to give her the engagement ring now and the wedding band at christmas but do it with a special touch and renew your vows to each other on this special day.What a gift that would be.

Give it to her now definitely. Call it an early Christmas gift... but remember to get her something to open on Christmas as well ;) She will appreciate having the ring to wear.

Be honest with her about everything. Love conquers all. As a husband I understand the symbol of the wedding ring, but maybe your trust will be restored if you spoke with her honest and forthright.
Speak now, give later.

Buy her an inexpensive ring for now and tell her you'll get her something special later when you find the right one. Then surprise her at Christmas with the one you bought her.
