    Should a promise ring be worn on the same finger as an engagement ring (left)? or on the other (right) hand?

    back in college, i got tricked into buying a broad a promise ring. i'll give you the f-chat discount on it.

    but really, take jerry's advice and just don't do it.

    i would prescribe you grab some scotch and listen to frank sinatra's nice 'n easy about a dozen times.


    Lets take it nice and easy
    Its gonna be so easy
    For us to fall in love

    Hey baby whats your hurry
    Relax and dont you worry
    Were gonna fall in love

    Were on the road to romance - thats safe to say
    But lets make all the stops along the way

    The problem now of course is
    To simply hold your horses
    To rush would be a crime
    cause nice and easy does it every time

    Whats the point, what does that accomplish?

    Going by what you did to the valet guy, I'm guessing this is more for her?

    You told us you were already engaged to her btw.

    We are basically engaged I guess, we've been planning for our wedding for a couple months now, but I won't buy an "official" engagement ring until the date gets closer. We are just claiming our turf I guess, it was her idea, and the "valet guy" is a non-issue anymore, ancient history.

    Have you noticed how much older than you most people on this board are?

    Age may not confer wisdom, but it sure confers experience.


    You'll understand someday when you're looking for your next future ex-wife.

    THAT alone should worry you!

    Think about it for a second. You paint a very rosey picture of your relationship, but from your stories it seems that the two of you have not had to overcome anything yet. YOU WILL. When you do, it will test your relationship and your resolve. Every relationship seems great when things fall perfectly into place. Far fewer seem so great when faced with adversity.

    Promise rings and engagement rings(that have a 1 year+ engagement attached to them) are nothing more than a boys way to tie up a potential mate while he makes up his mind...period. Boys talk about what they're "going to do", men act. If you want to marry her, then quit flirting with the issue and marry her. Buy a ring, ask her and tell her she has 2 months to plan a wedding.


    I wish you no ill will, but I've watched this scenario play out with friends before and I promise you this...if you have her planning a marriage today and it doesn't happen within the year, she's gonna cool off toward you and build resentment toward you. Mental masturbation doesn't provide fulfillment for very long. Tread carefully.

    Good post here......Chase- read it over , and OVER. the first part. I was in a LTR as well, and marriage came to mind...I was told by close SINGLE friends the same thing, "if you really wanted to marry her, you would make it happen" none of this, think about this, a little later, think about that and so on....when you do know, there is none of this nonsense....

    and yes I am anti-marriage, well at least for now and in no rush AT ALL.
