Had the same issue when I first got mine. I literally bought a big pack of silicone rings to wear for the sake of "getting used to having a thing on my hand" (which was a good plan, because I lost so many of them due to taking them off to wash hands that I had to order more). Wanted to make sure I wouldn't lose the real thing, and only wore it on special occasions until I went six months without losing one of the silicone stand-ins.
For the record, since I also had that issue with the ring sizing (lost weight and it stopped fitting correctly) - you can order silicone ring sizers to slide into the space and make them fit more snugly. I bought one pack and am still using them - can't easily resize tungsten and the little silicone pads last a good six months if you take the ring off instead of washing your hands with it on.
Also, word of warning while you're still getting used to it? I went to swat a fly on our drive home from the wedding and literally cracked the windshield. There's a hard metal object on your finger now, keep an eye on fragile things coming into forceful contact. 😑
