I'm in your camp, but the wife loves it and still wears it every day. Probably it means more to her than me. She's catholic and had our rings blessed, and that matters to her. My ring doesn't fit anymore (it was like a $200 tungsten ring), and there is less than no chance I'd wear it in my profession, but she told me years ago that if I get a new one the right size I need to get it blessed. So all this stuff means different stuff to her than me.
I think I need to go get a groove ring or whatever other silicone ring to not be a ****ing heathen and I actually do love my wife.

Having to get it blessed adds a level of complexity I suppose. My own wedding ring cost like $125, but I wear a $10 ring daily because 1) it's a little more comfortable and 2) though the cost of the wedding ring is negligible, it does have some sentimental value, so if I lose one, I'd rather not lose that one.
The silicone ones are OK. Probably the best option if you're trying not to get your finger ripped off, but I don't like how they stick to your fingers a bit. Still, they cost like $10 for a five-pack if you want to try some on and see how you like it.
