With the Ring or Without?

I would like to propose my love with a ring- the most beautiful one! And then, I'll take her for shopping... I'll buy anything she wants and I'll do anything to make her happy.. I'll never let the smile fade away from her face... I will promise undying and unconditional love to her... And I will live upto my word... :-)

I'm kind of torn on this lol. As much as I'd like to pick something out that I really like and then later have him buy it and propose to me, I'd almost rather him pick out something on his own. To me, it's a lot sweeter if he actually puts in the effort to find a ring that he wants to give to the girl he loves. I honestly think that's what my boyfriend is doing right now. I know he's going to propose to me soon, possibly when he's home to visit from the army. And I also know he's been looking at rings, lol he can't keep surprises from me. So far he hasn't asked me what I like or anything. He's been looking completely on his own and I haven't said a thing. I'll definitely be curious to see what he comes up with :)

I would prefer that they had the ring.....something they picked out for me....not something I need to pick out for myself.

It is always a sweet surprise to receive a ring when someone proposes, but, if given the chance I would like to choose my own ring. It's once in a lifetime so- How I wish I will have the chance to choose a ring that I'' be wearing a lifetime (hopefully)

When I proposed many years ago I bought the ring and surprised her with it. I know what kind of ring she liked so I just went and bought it. I proposed to the evil ex on christmas eve. I wrapped the ring and then put into another box and another and so on. I gave her the gift and she had to open many boxes before she found the ring box. Then after she opened it, I proposed to her. She said yes. Maybe I should have just bought her a watch. LOL. After knowing what happened this many years later, I must have been on something. LOL. But thats how I did it.

hi, I prefer, shopping my own ring, but if my partner insists , that he will get a ring for me, i don't have any problem. But he should not force me to wear ,the ring he bought. I don't have any problem in keeping both the rings,but the final decision should me mine. I am not thinking of marriage , in near future, but , i will get some more ideas, when i decide to get married.

My husband and I both agreed that I should choose a ring, since I would be the one wearing it, just as I should choose to keep or change my last name, as I'd be the one using and signing it.

In fact I prefer to be offered a wedding ring because it is a surprise and I like that. However, the disadvantage is also obvious. It is not for sure that you will like the ring or the ring fits your finger perfectly. In fact my man (now my husband) brought me to the store and we chose the wedding ring there. I think I am considerate because I didn't choose a very expensive wedding ring. After all, he would be my husband and his money was my money. I didn't want to spend a lot of money in this aspect. I don't wear any jewelries. A wedding ring is just a kind of symbol anyway. I love China

I would love to be surprise but I dont mind picking out my own ring . I pick out my own ring and my fiance wedding band .

actually i am done with the ring stuff lol and it was not as romantic as how i want it to be.. but well given i get another chance at that lol i would rather have him surprise me.. its more romantic.

I not prefer ring after marriage because now gold is very costly. But at the time of wedding ring is most important part of this. I like to purchases ring my own not others choice.

I picked out my engaged ring and my wedding band. I showed hubby want ring I wanted because we where walking around the Walmart and he asked me what ring would I like if he ever asked me to marry him and I pointed to a small ring and told him I don't like flashy I like simple, small, clean and it to be sliver I'm not a huge gold fan. A month later when he asked me to marry him that the ring he picked out was one of the rings I had pointed to. I point to several showing how small is to small and how big is to big since he got me a diamond ring for our engagement ring. We talked about marriage before getting engaged and if I would like a ring or not. I made it clear that I would like a ring. Of course even though I have a wedding ring and all people still ask me if I'm married because these days even with a wedding ring it doesn't mean your married or where married there are women that just like rings and just like to wear them on certain fingers. Which there isn't anything wrong with that. I have a few friends that don't have any engagement rings. and instead get a wedding with and engagement ring for when they get married so that the set matches.

Hi friend, i am already married, and we don't use ring as a marriage symbol, it is just a presentation or symbol of love, in our culture we will tie a knot in the neck while getting marriage. After my marriage i gifted a platinum ring to my wife, as she is very much interested in platinum things and i give it as a surprise gift to her

with the ring or without? for me is not important bec. its only a thing. but is a simbloy that you are a married person. or its also know if you are still free. but some men take it off so that they will know as single. and some women still wear it so that they are to show the world that they are taken. but in seprated its wear off. for me i throw my wedding ring bec. its nothing for me now. there is no meaning of it now. so why i will keep it. so i will wear a ring again in other man. and i hope someone will give it to me again.
