Today, after spending 12 hours desperately searching everywhere I could think of, I'm forced to admit I left my wedding ring in the bathroom of the hotel suite we just spent our honeymoon in, on the literal other side of the planet. I am a dead man. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it's been 14 years since at our wedding my now-husband lost the wedding ring, and we had to rush to buy another, which delayed the wedding and cost us our honeymoon flight and thousands of extra pounds. I just got his old suit out to dry clean. The missing ring was in its box, in his jacket. I'm going to kill him. FML
Today, I noticed I'd lost my wedding ring after returning home from a long, tiring day of painting our newly purchased home. After driving back and forth to the house for more than an hour to go looking for it, I found it tucked away in my back pocket. FML
Today, despite been married for less than two days, my husband has managed to lose his wedding ring. FML
Today, I’ve been the proud owner of an engagement ring for about 7 hours, and I’ve just spent the last 4 of them desperately searching for the damn thing, as I’ve lost it already. I daren’t tell my partner, since he was so sure I’d lose it, he'd told me to put it in our safe, and I stubbornly refused. FML
Today, my best friend invited me to dinner at his house. When I went to the toilet, I found my wife's wedding ring in a cup, which she'd lost a week ago. FML
Today, I got home to find my dog had found and eaten my wedding rings. I get married in 2 days. FML
Today, I went to a jeweler's to buy a ring to propose to my girlfriend. When I was at the restaurant, in mid-proposal, with people watching, I realized I had left the ring in the store. FML
Today, I got home early from work at 2am to find my girlfriend of 5 years missing. Upon further inspection, I caught the "other man" dropping her off out front. So much for the engagement ring I bought for her. FML
Today, I thought I'd lost the ring that my boyfriend had given me, in the snow, in the dark. I spent a half hour with a flashlight searching every part of my driveway. The ring was on my kitchen windowsill the whole time. I took it off earlier to do dishes. FML
Today, my husband of one week lost his wedding ring while we were preparing for a dinner party. After a thorough search and no luck, I started to cry. He told me to quit being a drama queen because we had guests. He then got drunk with his friends, puked on the patio, and called me a bitch. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Contact the hotel, let them know when you were there and what room you were in. If whoever found it is a decent person, they would have turned it in. You may have to pay postage but I see no reason why they wouldn't be willing to mail it to you if they have it.

Buy her something nice like a cat tail butt plug. Then she might forget the wedding ring and instead of killing you she could use the butt plug on you.

Call the hotel. They might have found it while cleaning the room.

I’m sure there is a doppelgänger ring on this side of the planet that would be plenty enough convincing.

Dude, that sort of stuff happens at hotels all the time. Get on to them and they'll post it to you.

My dad has lost three or four over the course of my parents’ 28 year marriage. (My theory is that’s why men’s bands are relatively cheap compared to the woman’s rings.) I suggest doing what another person said - contact the hotel and ask. Pay postage to get it shipped back home. Hopefully your wife finds humor in it!

Not to pile on but...Rookie! My first marriage I let my wife talk me into a $1500 platinum men's ring. Not sure where that is now but she probably got it along with my dignity in the divorce. Roll around to marriage #2. I told the wife I would get my ring and hers. Titanium $12.99 (Twelve dollars and 99 cents, you read that right). I actually bought a backup for when I eventually lose the original. Lessons: 1. Don't by an expensive ring (for her or you) 2. If you are guy, buy a backup and keep it somewhere she can't find it. In my house that is the oven.

Ideally you've just married your significant other because they're someone's you decided you could trust and be vulnerable with. Be honest. Share how badly you feel about it. Mistakes happen - this one just especially sucks. My brother-in-law lost his wedding band in the Gulf of Mexico the day after the wedding! He and my sister still laugh about it. I've even left my engagement ring behind on a counter at work after washing my hands, though I got that back. It will be okay in the end whether you get it back or not, and whether or not your spouse is understanding. I promise!
