Ultima Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 So I was just at a Flea Market that was selling black rings for two dollars. So I bought one. And now I have a question. I do not normally wear jewelry so I feel strange wearing it. How many of you wear black rings on the middle finger of your right hand? Do you have any asexual friends who also wear black rings?

Fruity<3 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I wear it occasionally, but all the ones I bought are too big so they slip off :/ I don't wear jewelry that often either; my friends notice it haha. Makes me happy to wear though! Makes me feel more accepted for some reason. I also don't have any ace friends in person... We're like unicorns :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites

argar Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Lol, I think were more like black unicorns. Well, maybe I'd be a grey unicorn. I have my black ring waiting in my Amazon list. Soon, real soon it will be mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tja Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Wouldn't think of taking mine off. Took me about a month, or so, to get used to it, as I've never worn rings. Have yet to meet a fellow ace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I wear my black ring for a couple of reasons: 1) ace, 2) I've got trichotillomania, and my ring has a spinner so I can fiddle with it. So I wear it almost constantly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kelico Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I have 2 different rings that are my ace rings--one that is the more classic all-black steel(?) ring, and one that is a silver infinity ring that has a row of black stones on it. I switch between wearing them, and I wear one just about everyday. : ) I never wore rings before, so it took a bit of getting used to, but now it just feels so comfortable. Haven't met a fellow ace yet, but that's ok; I wear them for my own confidence. : ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GamerStacey Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I always wear mine. I've never been much of a jewelry person(I did wear necklaces for a while, though), so, like everyone else said, I had to get used to it, but now I can't imagine going through the day without it. My best friend is actually asexual as well, but they don't wear a ring; it's not exactly their style. XD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
(A)rrogant Avian Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I wore my black ring all the time, until I lost it. I am thinking about getting a new one. I have never met an asexual in real life, but I have heard from someone that there is another asexual in my school. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skywolf Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It does a little bit of getting used to, I have one simple one and a newer one I got that is black but the inside is silver, and I do wear it especially when i'm going outside of my house. Inside I don't wear it all the time, since it's something I do to help with ace visibility. I have to say though, i'm off an odd few..I have two IRL ace friends who wear black rings!Also yay for $2, both of mine were $2 or $3 each xD (shhh I also wear ace of hearts card earrings >_> ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unbanned Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Post in Just For Fun Off-A would be a more appropriate alternative to the Asexuality subforums. Just For Fun is for useless spam and forum games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deltaX Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I recently started wearing a black ring! I wear it as a reminder to myself that I'm not alone in being asexual, and its helped me a lot in being more confident in my orientation. So far nobody (either ace or sexual) has commented on me suddenly wearing the same black ring everyday, but I always wore rings anyway, so I doubt anyone would notice unless they were specifically looking for it. I also have a demisexual friend who does not wear a black ring. She's not on aven or very involved with the ace community though, so its possible she doesn't know black rings are a thing..

Hooded_Crow Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Unicorns huh? So what happens when two unicorns appear in the same place at one time? I'm thinking the universe would implode. ;) Like for Santa and the Holiday Armadillo. I wear a black ring too. Love it. It's a little bit big for me, as I fall in-between sizes, but it doesn't seem likely to slip off, so that's cool. I have yet to meet anyone wearing one as well, but I have hope. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ultima Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Notice: Ok, I am dying of laughter! Also, I will state "Unicorn Duo! Ace Power! Combine!" if I meet another ace. I do not know about all the other stuff but I am down for whatever the other ace is. Perhaps we should start a topic that discusses some kind of secret handshake or dance or whatever that we do when we meet other aces. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Member54880 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I have a black ring I wear on my right middle finger, but I don't wear it all the time, because it's kind of bulky, and I just haven't been able to get used to wearing rings all the time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
