AnswerWhile some men can be real jerks and deserve to be divorced this does not include ALL men. It's a myth that it's always the man's fault for a divorce and women can be as much of a problem and sometimes cheat just as much as some men do. Men have feelings too and perhaps some men prefer to wear their wedding ring because they aren't ready to get back in the dating circuit yet because they are upset and need to find out where their life is going.Or, the ex -spouse was abusive and controlling during the marriage and continuing to wear the ring is a sign of power and continued ( perceived) control.
It can also be a manipulative tool to present an image to others. If the person has a history of being manipulative then there's probably a payoff to him in some way , either socially, or psychologically. It is a statement to others: "see, she is the problem, not me". And it's a statement to his ex-wife : " see , you are still attached to me". It's a subtle form of harrassment.

- the ring don't fit anymore after or during pregnancy.
- you hit some bad times and in order to pay the rent you had to sell it to a pawn shop.
- you never got one when you got married because you had no money or had more important things to spend the money on such as children, rent etc.
- you have a job where you can't wear it on your hands such as being a nurse when you then can wear it in a chain around your neck instead or in your pocket. When walking home you don't always remember it.
- she doesn't want anyone to know she is married
- she just got separated but the divorce is not final but she has taken the ring off
