When you see a girl that you find attractive, do you look at her ring finger? And if so, and you see a ring that is NOT a wedding band or engagement ring, do you automatically assume she's taken?
For example, I wear a ring on my left ring finger but it's just a regular ring that I've had for a while and just think is pretty. However, I am single. Could I be sending the wrong message? It does not look like a wedding band or engagement ring in any way. Does it really matter these days? Thanks for your answers!

Does it matter that I wear other rings as well, on other fingers (not just on that finger- I love jewelry) so it's not like I wear one ring only on my left ring finger. Does that change anything?

Yes dear, it can matter.
I think guys look at the ring finger as a reflex action; it is a necessary first step I suppose in the courtship ritual. A guy needs to know if a girl is available and checking the ring finger is a subliminal way of checking to see if further investigation is warrented.
And in some cultures, the ring finger may actually be necessary if you are a visitor there because the locals have different ideas about that but will respect other customs.
Hope this helps and good luck.

Well...I'm engaged now but during my datings days, I did look at a girl's ring finger first and foremost before even considering talking to her. Even if it wasn't a diamond ring or a wedding band, it doesn't matter, nowadays, women don't always have diamonds as engagement rings. If you want to attract more guys, I'd leave the ring at home when you're out on the town. Don't wear it on your neck either! Another tell-tale sign that you're taken...

You should wear it on your right hand.
Guys are usually very casual about looking for rings. They are not going to look at it closely. If they see a ring on your left ring finger, they will assume that it has significance.
At least I do.

when i see the ring i think god she ( i have cleaned it up for this site, in my mind i would use a word beginning with b. no disrespect intended or meant) looks real good. her man has a good thing going. wow, i would have loved to have met her before. disqualifying myself.
i would then want to see your legs and derriere to complete my assessment on how good she looks and how nice it might have been etc.
if you examine the action of men more closely, you find out they pretty much all do the same thing.
when i am at a red light, if a woman with a nice d* goes by, I will follow her rear with my eyes. if there is a guy the the next car. in 99.99% of the cases, he will follow her d* all the way across the street until she turns left or right and will continue to follow her with his eyes.
he may sometimes see me observing his action and smile or look away very quickly.
but in direct answer to your question most of us will respect your ring. yes it matters!

If you're looking for a one night stand, then the men that pursue you (if they think that's a wedding band) will be the sleazy type who don't care.
If you're looking for a relationship kinda guy then they would usually have the decency to see you are taken and chill.

Yes, I look for a ring as a reflex, and if I see one I assume she is taken. Don't wear it, it is confusing.

Yeah sweetheart the message is clear. You're taken! Try getting it sized down for your pinky finger.

I don't look at your hands, or rings. I look at your body language, your eyes, your smiles etc. if you are giving me the green light to aproach you..I will do that.
I don't let rings dictate who my sexual partner might be next!!

Yes it matters and I'm surpised that you don't see it.
You are letting guys know you are taken, so many are leaving you alone...well except the ones you don't want.
