Do you guys believe in promise rings?

Question

Answer

Which kind? There are 2 I know of:
1. Given by the father/family to the daughter to promise to stay a virgin until marriage. I think it’s kinda dumb. The two people I know that had one person A didn’t make it to marriage but still wore the ring and person B did make it until marriage but while her husband was deployed she cheated on him (so the sanctity of marriage and sex was kinda given a slap in the face). I also don’t like having that much pressure from family to commit to staying a virgin until marriage when they are so young. I feel it puts up a huge wall for communication if that teen has questions or anything happen regarding sexuality.
 2. A boyfriend gives it to the girlfriend (usually very young couples) to promise to someday be their wife but they aren’t engaged- just signifies their commitment to each other. I really don’t see the point. Being in the relationship should be a promise to stay committed. When ready then get engaged and get that ring. I don’t see the need for a pre-engagement ring.

Answer

I’d rather wait for the real thing. I don’t need a ring that is them “promising that they love me and want to be with me”. That should just be known in the relationship already. It just to me makes the relationship not seem as genuine and just seems like a high school thing.🤷‍♀️

Answer

Honestly promise rings back then were more meaningful then now, right now they are so over hyped that every guy gets his girl one just because he thinks she wants one bc of social media. When my boyfriend got me my first promise ring I had never mentioned I wanted one, it wasn’t even a big thing, but he gave me that ring that wasn’t even the prettiest, wasn’t looking like an engagement ring, probably cost less than $10 but to me it was the most meaningful gift I have ever received because I truly want to spend the rest of my life with him and likewise with him, here we are 6 years later ❤️

Answer

It depends on the person🤔
