Today, it's the third day my ring won't come off. I used soap, vegetable oil, lotion, soaked my hand in ice to make the swelling of my finger to come down, and even my mom pulled so hard she dislocated my finger. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my hand was stung by a wasp. It has resulted in all my fingers being swollen and therefore much bigger than usual. I'm getting married tomorrow and there's no way I can get the ring on my finger. FML
Today, I went mud wrestling for the first time at a mud bog. After a day of fun and getting cleaned up, I realized that my mom's ring was no longer on my finger. FML
Today, as I peeled a now soggy Band-Aid off my finger, I discovered that in the dim light of yesterday evening, I had, with great anxiety, wrapped it around the wrong finger. FML
Today, my recently married friend took off her wedding ring to make bread. Being single and pathetic, I tried it on to see what it would look like. It got stuck on my finger. The ER doctor had to cut it off. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that the ring I wear on my ring finger needs to come off because it's too big. It's too big because I bought it for him and he gave it back to me 6 months later. I've been wearing it on the same finger for the last 3 months with no problems. FML
Today, while playing with bubble wrap, I dislocated my thumb. FML
Today, I smashed my finger with a hammer. A finger on the hand holding the hammer. FML
Today, I was adjusting my nose piercing from the inside. My mother saw and thought I was picking my nose, so she slapped my hand away, tearing my nose ring out in the process. FML
Today, I noticed that the injury on my hand from three weeks ago no longer hurt. A while later, I accidentally slammed that same hand in a door. FML
Today, I accidentally dropped my engagement ring down a sewer. To my surprise, the sewer water was frozen and my ring sat on top. During my efforts to retrieve it, I had to watch as the ice slowly melted due to the warm day. The ring sank further and further until it was completely gone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

wow, can't believe some of the people on here... it really isn't that uncommon to get a ring on and not be able to get it off. I know someone who had to get her wedding ring cut off because, after 20 years of wearing it, she had developed arthritis and her knuckle had swollen making it impossible to get the ring off. The ring was able to be fixed and resized. It also depends on the weather too. In summer your fingers swell, so if it was a tight-fitting ring put on in winter it may not come off in summer due to the change in finger size. Or perhaps the person has put on weight.

see a doctor and lower your sodium intake, same thing happens to me, take a diuretic and that should help

lay off of the sodium in your diet. drink lots of water. eat low sodium food. keep twisting it in a circle.

After reading all the comments, here is a mix of everyone's suggestions, and my own twist (its a fun one) So, lay off the salt. Then, after 1-2 days, get ready to have a little fun. You will need your husband, windex, and something to support your arm. Now, raise your hand in the air (use the support), in order to help the blood flow away from your finger. Then, get your husband to "pleasure you" down south. Now blood should be rushing down there as well. After a little while (5-10 min), get your husband to use windex on your finger, and try to get the ring off. Continue this for a little while. If this still doesn't work, then go to the doctors. Worst case scenario: you go to the doctors. Automatic benefit: You get to have some fun and pleasure =]
