I never thought they were "childish" untill now. Craig and I have looked at getting one. We know we are getting married, but it's going to be years down the road. I'm still in college and we live with his parents, and I know he won't propose until we have our own place.

I thought this practice died out in the 50's?
 Who knew?

Sounds like she is pressuring the guy to marry her but he doesnt really want to so it kind of makes everyone happy, she gets a ring and lots of hope, he gets her to stop nagging so much without actually committing to anything. Well, talks cheap, either your engaged or your not.

Guess what: You're now getting a chunk of free advice (not to be construed as actual therapy) from an experienced marital and family therapist.
Healthy relationships are based on maturity, integrity, honesty, friendship, deep and abiding love; material possessions (promise rings? Geez!) have NOTHING to do with it. On the other hand, romance without finance is a NU-sance! Glad I could help.

I think the promise ring is cool if you are in highschool or maybe college but once you are a full fledge adult..........Please, get a grip. If you a stupid ring go buy one, get it yourself. Until then wait for your knight in shining armour and then get a ring from a guy.
BTW guys, stop spending so much freaking money on exspensive huge diamonds. If the hoochie doesn't like a small one and can't wait until your 5th, 10th or what ever anniversary to get the monster rock, she's not in love enough. YEAH, that's the way I feel about it and I said it out loud.

We waited to get engaged until he had enough money to buy the ring he felt I deserved. We'd already made the commitment to get married, but didn't make it "official" until he'd bought the ring.
I think I would have looked at him funny if he'd suggested a promise ring. To be honest, I'd rather be married than engaged.

I asked my hubby to marry me, so an engagement ring was never an issue for me. I was happy enough just to be engaged. The wedding band he gave me on our wedding day was more than enough for me.
Sometime later after we were married he surprised me with a beautiful heart shaped solitaire diamond ring for Valentines day. It was so sweet, he was so secretive about it, and then he completely surprised me!! I really wasn't expecting a diamond ring!! I do think I would have been insulted if he tried to pass off a promise ring as some sort of real commitment. Its one thing for young kids to do that, but for adults it just seems ridiculous! |

I think it is sort of an age thing. I think it is more understandable when you are really young, late teens early 20s. But I think as you get older you should just fork over the cash and buy the real thing.
