In the past year I’ve acquired some pretty rings that I tend to wear on the 4th finger of my right hand or on the third finger of my left hand. If I wear them to bed, I nearly always wake up with them on the ‘ring’ finger of my left hand.

how is this shameful? You were married for nigh on 20 years….it’s your subconcious memory doing it, not ‘you’. Interestingly, as soon as I took my wedding ring off, I felt lighter. And now I have a ring that isn’t at all like a wedding ring on it.
I guess it’s not really shameful…but it is a bit odd when I don’t figure it out until hours later. I have had more than one person ask me about it–as in, what’s with the ring on *that* finger?
Maybe one more odd thing wrt to my rings–a few years ago I went to counseling to help deal with some of the effects of my marriage on my psyche. My therapist quickly picked up on the fact that whenever I told him about problems I was having with my spouse, I would take my rings off the married finger and slip them over to some other finger. So I think there’s been something happening with that for quite some time.
