    I knew there was a practical reason for wedding and engagement rings on right ring finger. Finally, it came to me.

    Violinists, violists, do this because rings on the left hand would interfere with finger contact on strings and yield undesirable clicking noises.
    A clue: often these string players will have a mark under left jaw bone, where instrument rests.

    In some places in Europe they wear their wedding bands on their right hand.

    oh yeah and married gay people also wear the ring on the right hand.

    The funny thing is, I really do visualise you as a human version of your avatar. That makes you really cute, but a bit weird and dangerous too.
    yep

    when you're right, you're right.

    The last thing I want to do is hurt you, but it's still on the list.

    Go for it Xebs. She can only say no, and then you're only back where you started so no loss.

    A diamond ring on the left ring finger (fourth finger) is usually an engagement ring. If she also has a solid band ring on that same finger, it means she is married, generally speaking. Some women only wear the band because they didn't get an engagment ring.

    The rest of her fingers are not assigned roles, per se. Of course, different countries have different customs.
    Right hand can also mean a promise ring or friendship ring, especially if it looks like an engagement ring.

    Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain

    You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today

    And then one day you find that ten years have got behind you

    No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
