Hematine is the synthetic compound used in rings, hematite is the actual compound found in nature, the first is a scam
Usernamenotfoundmadeyoulook
Had one of these as a wedding band. Cracked after 6 months. Fortunately, these only cost about a buck. Good alternative to silicone too.

lol promise its not you! hematite is extremely fragile one good tap and it will break. This stone has no business being sold as a ring.

Hematite is strong, but brittle. It is not suitable for jewelry.

Hematite is temperature-sensitive. Heat Fluctuations will make it crack. It's just a bad material to make rings from.
NineByNine
maybe so but fuck it looks pretty

This happens with me a lot with hematite jewelry. Apparently it's largely down to skin chemistry. My dad would basically disintegrate them.

It wasnt hematite enough
Wubbalubbadubdubb101
Tungsten is very hard too but that same hardness (unwillingness to bend) is what makes it brittle.
nemocares
Hardness is resisting intrusion by another body. It often follows brittleness but not always. Talc is soft partially because it's brittle.
Manikasaurus
Hematite is type of a rock and it breaks easily if gets knocked against hard surface. I've broken several of these with my other rings

Hematite is a mineral not a rock, Fe2O3... It gives rocks red colors and has (antiferro) magnetism, used widely for studying ?'s magnetism

So has all the negative energy now been sucked out of her life?
lurkilydurkiler
I’d go through one every day right now
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
I think we're missing the subtext here that the boyfriend thinks she's got too much negative energy or wants her to think that.
Kiopho
The subtext is that she's stupid.
Pretty sure that's the supertext.
thelegendofthetwistednavigator
Hematite is really brittle, you can't use a regular link punch with a hematite watch band/case as it cracks.
May as well complain that the cardboard ring you got didn't hold up well in the swimming pool

I'd like to sell you this rock. It repels bears.

It's just like people!
I will sell you virtual tokens which prevent you from buying fake stuff. Most people heal after 1, but I can also sell in bulk.
Sonicschilidogs
I'll take your entire stock!
Stand on one leg, point one hand south and slap your forehead with the other hand. You'll feel a tingling sensation when each token arrives.
ITS WORKING, OH MY GOD, I MUSTVE GOTTEN 100 TOKENS BY NOW!! THUS WORK WONDERS! How much do I owe you, kind sir or madame?
at least 4

They only difference is they don't tend to think they're being the asshole.
Colopty
You can be fine with being an asshole without recognizing yourself as one.
Imsurprisedihaventchangedmyusernameyet
"asshole" is a spectrum, and you need a middle ground. Can't let every customer milk you, but also can't staight out say "fuck off idiot"

3 ply will change your life...for your butthole. Or just get one of those ass splasher toilets that clean your asshole out. Whats it called?
68people
Bidet! Life changing. Or do the shave, shit, shower routine
I want one, but money is an issue currently. Join the club, right?
I like ass splasher better
i went to japan recently. Those fuckin' heated seats, auto-bidet, air freshener, auto flush toilets are fuckin' amazing
and you might be thinking "yeah but I bet those are only in super swanky places" NO, THEY ARE FUCKING EVERYWHERE. EVEN PUBLIC TOILETS.
goddamn i just... i... how do we live with ourselves in the west like this with crap bargain basement toilets oh god what is wrong with us

That’s the last time I got a piece of ass.

Hematite is pretty but also pretty fragile
GhostofCain
Completely correlating to my fragility. How quaint.

Maybe that's why they're 2 dollars a pop
KillerTofu615
they literally break from changing temperature. Can't imagine they'd last very long
porpoiseoflife
I've worn the same one for the last two years.
is yours sealed in a plastic or rubber?
Neither.
mizmoose
I've been wearing the same hematite ring for 5 yrs. It regularly gets smacked into things. I guess I'm not negative enough.
swellguy18
Can confirm. I've shattered one.
A ring made from it I mean.
escalinci
It's just iron ore, yes? stupidly common.
ThatLoserTheFourth
As someone else said, it is relatively abundant, but I also thought I'd say it's also not *just* iron. It's one of the iron(III) oxides 1/2
(chemical formula Fe2O3) formed into a specific crystal lattice known as a rhombohedral lattice 2/2
cuddleskunk
Yes and no. Hematite is very common as a whole, but specimens that are actually workable into a ring are less so (still not super rare).
Almost a ms fragile as me

Agreed, but I picked up a $5 Hematite (wedding) band from Chinatown in Québec, CA years ago and have been wearing it daily w/o issue.
yoseiwind
Could be hematine, manmade hematite - tends to be strong. The one in the picture could also be hematine but from an inferior manufacturer.
witheredspoon
They sold you a cheap knock-off ring that won't break! sucker!

For a minute I thought, there’s a Quebec in California too?

Me too... I was all over the map for a second...Chinatown...Quebec...California?

I had one for years, only reason it broke was because I accidentally smashed it on a railing during a Metallica concert.

What if it’s the Hematite ring that’s wearing you and you’re living in some alternate universe where hematite rings are the dominant species
