The official wedding ring finger is the fourth finger on the left hand but some countries put on thiers on the right hand. There is a lot of controversy curiosity and questions to why the wedding ring is been worn on the fourth left finger


The reason why the wedding ring is been worn on the fourth left finger can be traced to ancient times. During that time, the romans believed that the vein on the fourth left finger finger is linked directly to the heart and because of this they called vein the "vena amoris" or vein of love.

Marriage is golden,but ensure you are financially buoyant enough for it.

And there's no marriage in heaven,cos they're neither male nor female,so enjoy the union here on earth,cos the time is short

I'm of the opinion that marriage should be up for renewal every 5 years, of both parties should agree to renew or cancel

We don’t. What you just said is false. It’s a silly myth made up by people without any knowledge in physiology as a romantic fairy tale to try to explain why we customarily wear a wedding ring on the left hand.

The real reason we traditionally wear wedding rings on the left hand is a lot more practical. Most people are right handed.

P.S: I could a ring on my Big right toe and it'd lead back to the heart. All veins lead back to the heart in a roundabout way.

Has it been medically proven that there is direct link between the vein in that finger and the heart?
I'm tired of believing every nonsense from oyibo. undecided

stop sounding pained as if the guy is the reasons for ur marital or emotional paralysis. the myth was an accient believes from roman, the only issue is that they fail prove it, all the veins in our finger has direct entries to our heart(biologically).

wearing it left or right hand now depend on the culture that your country has adopted(just like car drivers side)...since nigeria is copy and paste from the white gods and Our tradition has nothing to give to identify those married one from different tribe.

I can tell you the Scandinavian(Barbarians) history of how the ring came about to be on the finger, the MYTH is popular because the Romans became a world power. it's all about perspectives and yours isn't quite objective. A good majority of Nlnders have a problem with comprehension, they can read, they can write but to understand it and speak/explain on it just seems to elude them, that's why very few of them can function well on Quora and Reddit. I am not attacking your intellect in any way, if I did you probably wouldn't know.

If ALL veins(not only ones in the finger) has direct entries to the heart as you say, then wouldn't the premise of putting a marriage ring anywhere in any part of the body be valid because the vein there eventually leads to the heart.

The objective/Practical solution was to wear it on the left hand was because it interfered with day to day activities and most people are right handed

That being said I do NOT discard the MYTH

P:S

Bro/Sis stop using this "why are you pained/emotional/marital paralysis" in a discourse, a lot of people lead good lives outside of these things you mentioned, don't get sucked into the myopic mindset of attacking the emotions of Nlnders specifically and Nigerians at large, be objective when analyzing, besides it makes one come across as having a fortress of intellectual nothingness. You'd rarely be considered as someone who has something worthwhile to say. FOR REALZ

Hit me up if you wanna know the Scandinavian story. wink
