Goes back to 3rd grade when the girls were allowed to pick the boys in dance class. I remember they came running. Not to me though. That was fine then.

You can’t spell fiancé without finance.

LOL, yeah right. Engagement/marriage rings are a call to action.

In lots of cultures the engagement ring is a wedding band that is worn on the right hand. Both men and women wear them.

On the day of the wedding the rings are removed and given to the pastor who blesses them. They are then put on the left hand.

What a pansy. No self respecting woman wants to marry or be engaged to a pansy.

Where will he wear the wedding ring? When they have kids, will he get a dad’s ring, too. Then there’s a ring or two for major anniversaries. Ooh, how simply fabulous his sparkly fingers will be for when he chops down that dead tree in their backyard or changes the wife’s oil... yeah, yeah, he’ll use his iphone to call some good looking real he-man hunk to change the wife’s oil.

My soon to be ex- wife didn’t hyphenate her name, but she did remove her middle, and add my last name. So, it was FIRST NAME, MAIDEN LAST NAME, MARRIED LAST NAME.

Never did like that.

Do the management rings match their man purses?

I will start by saying am a female.

I think the world and all of the majority of conservative type males.

Hate to say it....butt...the new age women only care that you have money. If you lose it, you stink.

Take all the Viagra you wish, but to these gals, money matters more than your Johnson.

Sure, they will marry and make your life a living hell.

I would be careful saying that. The young kids seem to be giving each other rings today before marriage. I was surprised but it is what it is. We are old foggy’s now and will never accept what the young does so it is just an endless cycle.

I demand at least 5 carats if she wants me to take the proposal seriously... and I’m keeping the ring if it doesn’t work out!

Exactly!

I wouldn't marry her unless she bought me a mani-pedi and a spa day as well.

Engagements can be soooooooo stressful!
