Today, while swimming in the ocean, I felt some sand under my wedding ring. I took it off for a second, and got hit by a huge wave. My ring is now lost somewhere in the ocean. FML

I guess I didn't put on the FML that I am a male. My wife told me that she wants me to wear my ring (except during work, which is Aviation and we're not allowed). I told her I wasn't comfortable wearing it in the ocean, and she said I had to anyway. After losing my ring, my wife bought snorkel equipment and I spent an hour diving for it until the sun set. My wife and I have been married for 5 years, and we both got a laugh out of it, and we purchased another ring the next day in a Hawaiian market that now has a story and more meaning than the first ring.

Where did taking your ring off in the ocean sound like a good idea?

Why does your wife get to decide what you should do if you don't feel comfortable with it? I'm glad everything worked out though.

My dad is on his fourth wedding ring? (My parents have been married 40 years) One of his rings is at the bottom of the ocean in Hawaii- his came off while scuba diving. :) I'm going to bet there's quite a few rings down there

Sounds like Hawaii is the Bermuda triangle of wedding rings.

Way to demonstrate your intelligence saying op was a girl AFTER they posted stating they're male. Btw, Darwin called. He's looking for you.

YDI because you didn't take your ring off before you went in the water. I always remove my rings before even going into a pool.
