As we do live here in the States we proudly wear our rings on our left hands but have decided to also purchase additional bands for when we travel to Belgrade. I guess we can't complain that we get to wear more "bling" :)My husband initially wanted to wear his band on his right hand, but I looked at him with doe eyes and said "but honey, here in the U.S. you won't appear married. So being the hero, he decided to wear his band on his left. Sweet Serbian men, gotta love em :)Thanks for the laugh. <br />Haley, San Diego, CAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1583964906309382179.post-25607550505461550012008-10-16T13:12:00.000+02:002008-10-16T13:12:00.000+02:00That is so true.

Being married in the Orthodox Church the band was placed on my right hand. Knowing that, I also had a band for my left hand so my Canadian friends wouldn't wonder what happened. I am seeing more and more wedding bands being worn on the right hand only by Serbs in Canada. Pride... convenience???
