Yea, I think under normal conditions the two don''t hurt each other when they go together. I actually asked the same question when I got my wedding ring, so here is a link to that as well
https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/titanium-wedding-ring-and-white-gold-e-ring.45610/. The person who answered my post is from Boone Rings, which works with titanium. One thing to be cautious of though, is the size of the ring. Titanium is very hard to resize and if you don''t get the right size the first time around, it''s sometimes hard to find someone to resize it and you might have to send it out. This is the current problem I am going through, so be careful to get the correct size. If your band is really wide, it might even be safe to go up about a half size, just in case.
*M*
Very true about the sizing issue. This reminds me of a story -- my good friend''s parents both bought titanium wedding bands when they got married in the 70s. Thirty years (and many pounds) later, her mom needed to take off her wedding band to prepare for surgery. Well, she hadn''t taken it off in so many years that it was STUCK and no amount of lotion, lubricant, or tugging would remove the ring. Then her husband got the bright idea to take a Dremmel (sp?) to it (one of thise mini handheld drills)
and it threw sparks like crazy. In the end, she had to have it permanently cut off of her hand using a special saw that cuts titanium. It was a sad day for her.
So, the moral of the story is, titanium lasts forever (but do you want it to?)
LOL.
