Hello all! Sorry for the long post.

For the past week or two, I've been forgetting to put my ring on. Theres no real reason behind it. I've just been getting up, having jumbled up thoughts and just wishing to go back to bed. (I've been extremely depressed the last 2 weeks). My husband has caught wind of this and confronted me about it today. He asked "what's up with you and your wedding ring?" I simply told him that I've been forgetting. He's not buying it. He thinks I'm cheating on him and just leaving my ring at home bc it would be harder to explain that I lost my ring while I was out since wedding rings are not supposed to come off. I kept standing by my story since it's the truth but he doesnt believe me. I have a bad history of lying to him especially when it comes to men (which is an ingrained fear from my step father.) Now, my husband has every right to not believe me especially since my history, though I never have nor will I ever cheat on him. He kept saying I was coward because I'm one 1) choosing to be selfish and cheat and 2) possibly doing this charades on purpose so he can divorce me. I'm doing none of that! I've told him that I'm not cheating.

He said, roles reverse, I wouldn't believe him. I told him I would have my suspicions. He actually lost his wedding ring a year or so ago, to add. He went to the hospital, apparently lost his ring as he washed his hands (he took it off) and noticed on his car ride back home. He told me on phone and started going on about how those are material things. I was upset but I'm was not throwing a fit about it. He on the other hand, is adamant on his belief that I'm cheating. Though, he says he has no proof of me cheating. We talked about how a past convo about having an open relationship. I stopped him and said no, I dont want one. I dont want to deal with another guy. That convo was dropped. I dont want to deal with additional relationships. Like I'm already tired of this one smh but a lot of it I'm too blame for.

We are on okay terms now. The only problem now is that he wants me to find a solution to this wedding ring issue. Obviously start by wearing it but the rest is in my court to assure him that I'm not cheating or doing anything shady by forgetting my ring. He couldnt think of anything that would alleviate his suspicions and I cant think of anything that still respects my privacy. Any suggestions?

And yes, I know this is an unhealthy relationship. We are trying our best for our 3 yr old daughter. We are both very messed up people just trying to find some joy in this madness.

Edit: I take my ring off before I shower at night. I dont sleep with my ring on, its uncomfortable.

My boyfriend said I give good
