Model Admits Wearing Fake Wedding Ring To Keep Creepy Guys Away
A Brazilian model is keeping it real about how exhausting it can get when random guys won’t stop hitting on her. She said men were constantly approaching, flirting, and trying to shoot their shot—so she came up with a clever little hack.
Influencer Ju Isen, who’s pretty huge on social media, revealed that she now wears a fake wedding ring whenever she steps outside. Yep, not an actual engagement ring, just a piece of pretend bling. And according to her, it’s been a total game-changer.
She says the ring works like a shield. The moment men see it, they back off. No cheesy pickup lines, no awkward small talk, no wasting time. Ju explained that this trick saved her from a ton of unwanted attention, especially when she’s out shopping, at events, or just living her everyday luxury lifestyle.
It’s kinda funny but also smart—like a DIY dating tip for women who are tired of creepy strangers. Some call it women empowerment, others see it as marriage advice in disguise, but honestly… it’s just survival in today’s dating world.
Isen, who’s basically Instagram famous with a massive 2.6 million followers, said guys used to come at her from every direction. Didn’t matter if she was at the gym, grabbing groceries, picking up meds at the pharmacy, or just chilling by the pool—men would still try their luck.
“I was honestly exhausted. It was nonstop, like every single place I went, someone was hitting on me—even when I clearly wasn’t interested,” the 39-year-old model shared with NeedToKnow.
That’s when she tried something simple but genius. She slipped a ring on her left hand—just a plain fake wedding band—and instantly, things changed. “It was like pressing the mute button,” she said with a laugh.
The ring trick worked like magic. No more cheesy pickup lines, no more random flirting. For Ju, it became a subtle way to signal she was “off-limits,” even though she’s still single and not actually married.
“Even if it’s not real, it’s enough to keep guys from approaching,” she explained. “It’s been my go-to for years, and honestly, it still works.”
Ju said the difference was obvious the moment she started rocking that little ring. Suddenly, guys weren’t as bold. “They actually think twice before saying anything now,” she explained.
She noticed it most in places like the gym or bars—spots where flirting usually runs wild. With the ring on, the vibe shifted. Men weren’t so quick to drop their pickup lines or slide into her personal space.
Isen even remembered this one time at the pharmacy. A guy started chatting her up, clearly interested, but the second his eyes caught the “wedding ring,” his whole attitude flipped. He backed off instantly.
For her, that tiny fake engagement ring has become more than just jewelry—it’s like a silent sign of boundaries, a little dating hack that makes life easier.
Ju laughed while remembering one moment at the pharmacy. “He asked if I was married, I just smiled… and he instantly went, ‘Got it, sorry,’ then walked away,” she said. “It was actually respectful, and honestly, I got to keep my peace.”
The Brazilian model said she started this little trick way back when she was just 23. Over time, it’s just become second nature—like slipping on lipstick before going out. Anytime she leaves the house, the ring goes on.
For Ju, it’s not about lying or catfishing anyone. It’s more about personal boundaries. “It’s not about tricking people. It’s just a quiet way of saying, I’m not available for this kind of interaction,” the influencer explained.
And the wild part? Even after all these years, it still works. That simple fake wedding ring continues to be her secret weapon against unwanted attention, making it one of the most underrated dating hacks for women who just want to live in peace.
Even though she usually keeps that fake wedding ring on, Ju admitted she did take a little break from it a few years ago. And during that time, she noticed something pretty surprising—the attention from guys wasn’t nearly as strong as before.
According to her, dating apps might be the reason. “Men today don’t have the same initiative they once had. It’s like they’re unmotivated,” she said. Ju pointed out that even the cheesy pickup lines—yeah, the ones that used to annoy her nonstop—have become kind of rare.
In her eyes, technology changed the whole dating scene. “Honestly, I think technology killed flirting,” the influencer explained. Between social media, online dating apps, and swipe culture, she feels real-life connections just don’t happen the way they used to.
“Nowadays, it feels like everyone just sits around waiting for a match on a dating app,” Ju said. “No one makes eye contact anymore. Nobody walks up naturally. And because of that, relationships feel a lot more empty and kind of mechanical.”
Even though the whole dating world has shifted, she still keeps that fake wedding ring on her finger. For her, it’s the easiest way to filter out random flirtations—and honestly, she doesn’t miss the attention at all.
“At least not that kind of attention,” she laughed. “I prefer peace. If a man is really serious about me, he’ll have to go beyond the obvious. And if I’m actually interested too, I’ll just tell him I’m not really married.”
For Ju, the ring isn’t just fake jewelry anymore. It’s her quiet little filter—a way to set boundaries, protect her energy, and decide who’s worth her time in this modern dating culture.
