Generally I don't love jewellry. But I feel half naked without my half pound chronograph riding my left wrist.

Sounds like I'm like most of you in that I hate the feeling (aside from my glasses). I used to wear a watch until the strap broke, but I only really put it on before I left for work, and took it off while at work because it bothers me.

If I somehow miraculously find the right person to marry, I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to wear a ring regularly without it driving me nuts. But this hypothetical person will understand :)

I'm a jewelry freak. I wore diamond studs (I have triple pierced ears) until I lost one whilst my son was in hospital in the fall, and I thought husband would buy me new ones for Christmas, but didn't.

I wear 2 rings on the pinky finger of my left hand. One is my grandmother's opal and the other is the three diamonds that were left over from her 50th anniversary bracelet (it had 50 diamonds, but was too big, so they cut it down to 47 and put the extra three into a ring). She died the year I came back to the States and so it makes me feel closer to her. I have my wedding bands on my ring ringer. It's very pretty. Hubby designed it.

On my right hand I wear a heart shaped citreon on my first finger and an a princess cut antique diamond on my ring finger. I wear my diamond heart pendant all the time. I wear my two bracelets all of the time on my right wrist. One is a clear cut rhinestone tennis bracelet and the other is a garnet tennis bracelet.

On my left wrist I often wear charm bracelets or some other kind of bracelet. I really like jewelry. I can't wear watches though. Not because of it bothering me, but because I tend to make them go bonky. The doctor told me that my magnetic field changed when my son was born, and now I make watches go bonky. Happens to all the time pieces in our house. Cell phone loses time if Verizon didn't reset it constantly. Computer clocks have to be changed for the correct time monthly. Husband had to stop wearing watches to bed. Killed three of them before he believed me that I made watches go bonky.

My son can't wear much jewelry. He wears two wristbands and a really heavy watch all of the time. He says that he likes the sensory input.

You're wrecking our "Aspies hate the feel of jewlry" theme :wink:

What your describing is amazing-I mean it seems like someone should study that. It's like a super power or something. It shouldn't be possible, yet there it is.

There seems to be a minority that are total jewelry freaks. We either love it or hate it. I'm not seeing much in between.

Also, I've heard of people's electrical fields messing with watches before. I don't know if there's any truth to it, but I've heard of it before. However, the stuff with the house clocks and computer time is just wishful thinking. All time pieces must be reset from time to time. Quartz time is good, but it's not perfect. Very few people have an atomic clock sitting in their living room.
