When i finally got divorced I gave my ring to someone who needed money, and told them to pawn it for whatever they could get. Plain, simple men’s gold band i paid a few hundred bucks for.
Id almost say melt it down and reshape it to something else you enjoy/is significant but that takes a jewler and more money.
I've had 2 failed engagements - one was a family ring that i don't have back, one was going to be tattooed, and I still have a specific spot open for it around my knuckle ink.
Glad you're going on to a better place! Solidarity comrade, know how hard it can be (one relationship was 10 years, so feel ya).
I guess to start with ideas, what sorta stuff you into? Any hobbies or anything?
I am single if you ever want to make sure you can get divorced again if you enjoy it so much you'd like to do so again. 😉
maybe dissolve it, then electroplate sth with it, maybe some tools or such.

You could donate your wedding ring, so some other couple could get married
