    I barely remember to wear it during the day, so it's always off at night. 😂

    I don't wear it in bed. I got an elephant ring dish and that's where it goes at night time.

    I take it off and it goes in my jewelry box. It is a family heirloom so I don't want to ruin it in my sleep. I am very careful with it.

    I take my ring off when I go to bed, but a few days ago I had misplaced my ring for about an hour so I make sure that it's in the box before bed

    I take my ring off when I go to bed. I put it in the ring box in the medicine cabinet.

    I wear my ring at bedtime. I took it off once and almost forgot to put back on. It also felt naked to not have it on. Have to make sure the setting is secure over time as wearing it during sleep can loosen. I take off for shower/bath and anything that might damage it such as outdoor yard work swimming etc

    I take it off when I go to bed. I have small ceramic dish next to my bed. I put it on as soon as I got off bed. I wear it to shower and anywhere else except when I need my hands kneading something messy while cooking and when playing golf due to the tight gloves.

    I always take mine off before I shower and before heading to bed. I leave it on a ring dish next to my bed.

    I never wear mine to sleep. I usually only put it on if I'm leaving the house or having people over.

    I never take mine off. I have a bad habit of misplacing things and that's one I don't want to lose.

    I take my ring off to sleep, shower, when cleaning, and even when washing my hands and putting on moisturizer. I really love it and don't want to damage it or get it gunked up with anything. I also wear it around my neck on a silver box chain while at work, as I work in healthcare and have to wash my hands and wear gloves often (which don't fit too well over the ring). I will wear my wedding band on the same chain when at work after the wedding. At home when not wearing it I just keep it in the box it came in.

    I only wear it when I’m going out. When I get home, I’ll take it off and put it in my jewellery box for safe keeping

    I take it off to shower, wash the dishes or anything else that includes my hands being in water for a period of time. Other than that it is always on.

    I take my ring off all the time. The band has an intricate design so I’m always worried that it wil get caught on soemthing, or gunk will get in the crevases. There are only 3 places my ring is allowed to be aside from my finger. 1- my rong box beside my bed, 2- the tiny pocket of my jeans, 3- the bathroom counter (if I am using the toilet. If I’m going to shower, the ring is beside the bed).

    I take it off at night, before I use the toilet, if I’m washing dishes or cleaning the house, if I’m changing the cat litter, when I shower, put on lotion, or use hand sanitizer, if I’m baking, or anything similar. Also I don’t take it with me to the beach or places it might easily be lost or stolen.

    I wear mine pretty much 24/7 - I take it off to shower as I don't want conditioner film coating it, or if I'm doing something messy with my hands. I also left in the the room safe in a few ports when we went on our honeymoon cruise (for security reasons), but otherwise, I wear it constantly, including to bed.

    I take my ring off every night! I have a dresser from ikea and the top is my jewelry storage (it’s shallow and has a felt pad). It has its own place in there.

    I take mine off at night - I tried sleeping in it at first but found my finger swelled over night and it was uncomfortable all morning afterwards. Now I take it off and put it on the ear of a little silver bunny ring holder next to my bed.

    I don't wear it if I'm : sleeping, cleaning or being active.

    Before I go to bed, I just put it back in the pretty red box it came in, which is located on our dresser.

    I wouldn’t go get it resized if it fits fine the rest of the day. Honestly I would try taking it off at night, your finger is probably just swelling slightly overnight- which is pretty normal. Getting it resized could cause an issue for the rest of the day though and you don’t want to risk losing it while you’re out and about!

    Most of the time I wear it to bed but my fingers swell at night (normal or not it happens) - I take it off to shower and I shower at night and the heat from the shower also makes my fingers swell so on those nights I do not sleep with it on only because it's painful in the morning.

    First off thank you so much for asking this question I was wondering this myself. I do sleep with mine on. I only take it off when showering, putting on lotion, or baking. I am worried I do feel like its quite tight in the morning when I wake up on my finger...is this normal? The rest of the day its fine. Should I go and have it resized?

    I have a few times (mostly by accident)... Still a little worried to do it all the time so it goes into a little box before I sleep!

    I never wear my engagement ring to bed. I take it off and put it in its ring box every night. This way I always know where it is, and don't have to worry about it getting caught on anything in the night and loosening a diamond.

    I've worn mine pretty much 24/7 since I got it in October but I work outdoors and found it got caught on things and I had to wear gloves more, which I'm not really a fan of. So I think I'll get myself a silicone one to wear to work for this season.
