So i was told that when you break up from a real meaningful relationship and just don't want to date after it, you wear a black ring on your ring finger. I then found out it's also done when your spouse dies.

Anyway, i like the idea since I had a pretty bad breakup a few months ago, and I still cry over it, (he was my first bf ever and he cheated on me, picked the other girl over me, and then when confronted he justified his actions and then later he ditched his friends and family and ran out of his home with her before Father's Day and hasn't been home since), and I can't for the life of me even think about dating again. I had a short rebound episode, but I got out of it quickly and felt even worse.

Anyway, anyone have any thoughts on this? The carbide rings look nice, just i need to get one of those things to measure my fingers for ring sizes, though.

What have you guys done after breaking up that was symbolizing your mourning or the fact you weren't ready to date again? I'm curious to others' stories. less

I've never heard of that! Seems interesting. I remember after a bad breakup once I considered chopping my hair off, because I remembered some manga character having done that in a series I liked.

I decided in the end it would make me more miserable, lol. less
