Damn. Along with your other recent good news I figured that would be good too but it sounds like you've got it covered

I still have never understood "promise rings" When you are too young to be engaged or married they made sense (ie high school). What is the promise? To eventually get married? isnt' that what an engagement ring is? Are promise rings easier to get back when you break up then engagement rings? Do you throw the promise ring away when you upgrade to an engagement ring? I just have never understood them for adults.

I thought promise rings meant you wouldn't have sex before you got married?

Of course, that would explain why I'd never give one to a chick in a hooker cop outfit, but that's just me.

That's what I remember. But as a teacher told a girl in one of my classes who had a ring...
"That means you promise to NOT have sex. And you become a virgin again after 2 years not 2 weeks" (not sure of the religious re-virgin years thing, just making up a number). That teacher was my hero.

Promise rings mean that the chances of them putting out is very promising. Real virgins who will (or at least want to) wait till marriage don't need a ring.

Its a promise to get engaged. RacerX says to start small.

I bought a promise ring for my wife. And I'm sure it was after high school. I would have to ask her to make sure.

A promise ring is cheap enough that your not worried about getting it back. Or at least the one I bought was.

I always heard those called purity rings or abstinence rings.

She just turned 21 in April and she's been slacking off actually! They were way tighter when I met her! She's picked up a bad case of "I got a man" syndrome and has been skipping the gym lately. I'm going to have to crack the whip pretty soon!!!

She's half your age?

Yep! I mean lots of guys buy their girlfriends jewelery, I just happened to get her a ring. It's a step away from engagement but more than just fucking.
