When did you start checking for wedding rings when meeting the opposite sex?

..or any other sort of dead giveaway. Have you ever talked with someone a few times, thought they were interesting, and then been told he/she is in fact married? I know it's not foolproof, but I'm going to have the finger-checking instinct for a while.

I still never think to. My eyesight kind of sucks and I'm not exactly detail-oriented.

I never think to look but I really should start.

yeah I never do either. I still somehow assume everyone isn't.

my sister is like a hawk when it comes to these things. i'm still pretty oblivious.

Never have. It's not that big a priority. I'll check right before I fuck them. Otherwise, they'll be friends. I'd hate to think I was so much on the prowl that I'd check for wedding rings.

My wife has to flash her ring at potential public suitors fairly often.

good thing most people my age will stop getting married!

about a year ago. A lot of people aren't wearing them when they're out though.

I'll check right before I fuck them.

I never think to do that. The few married people that I know seem like they throw it out there almost immediately. If there was only a quick way to know about those in LTRs though, I'd be a happier girl...

i never did. i don't even remember which finger the ring is supposed to go on.

If she leaves some of her jewellery behind by mistake and I notice it on the bedside table a few days later, I'll ask the next girl "hey, does this look like a wedding ring to you?"

When disposing of the corpse.

i should start wearing a ring so the random creeps will believe me when i lie and say i'm married.
