If you are married she should already have an engagement ring. You give her the engagement ring when you propose, before the wedding is even planned.
* A man can give a 'Promise to get engaged ring' or, an engagement ring and be a fiance for the rest of their lives. Generally after a year of engagement the couple get married.
No she didn't. She's still with her bloke.
No matter what the engagement ring costs once you have given it to her and then she breaks off the engagement the engagement ring is hers to keep (considered a gift.) Some women will give the ring back, while others will keep it.
My parents would kill me if I married a black guy
Some people that do not want to get married give you an engagement ring because they want to show their commitment but may be afraid of the next step, others may give it to you because they think that's what they are suppose to do and believe that you want it but really don't have any long term intentions and unfortunately some give a ring to mark their territory. If you know you are not getting married and are both ok with that then wear the ring but if you want to get married and know that he does not you are going to have to make the choice of staying with this person or moving on. Also, don't wear it all the time if you don't want to - wear it as an occasional piece of jewellery because really it is not an engagement ring if there in fact is no engagement.
Yes, a Promise Ring can be given as an Engagement Ring. While traditionally different, it ultimately depends on the couple's preferences and the significance they attach to the ring.
I believe you are asking if you can give just the engagement ring and not the whole wedding set. Please clarify the question, if this is not the case. Yes, you can give just an engagement ring. Usually the man proposes with an engagement ring and then the wedding band is worn after the wedding along side the engagement ring.
When I was engaged, I did not receive any engagement gifts. I do not know of any of my friends who received engagement gifts either. I think that a good replacement to an engagement gift would be a gift for their bridal shower or bachelor party in addition to a wedding gift.
If the engagement ring you gave your fiance is a family heirloom (passed down from generation to generation) then she should give you the ring back. If you bought her the engagement ring then it's hers to keep. If and when you get engaged again your next fiance would not want a ring you had given another woman.
Unless it is a family heirloom then the young woman can keep the engagement ring as it was a gift to her of the young man's pledge of love. A man who has given an engagement ring to his girlfriend and either one breaks up then a man should not give that engagement ring to another woman that may come into his life. Women would not want some other woman's engagement ring. If he still owes money on the ring then it is entirely up to you as to whether you wish to give it back to him or not.
There are no laws about the age for engagement, but there are laws giving minimum ages for having sex. These can vary from state to state, so it's best to find out what the laws for your state are. And you have to be 18 to get married without parental permission. Most states will allow you to get married at 16 if the parents give their permission.
Some men just begin wearing their wedding band early. While others choose to wear both a management ring and a wedding band." While most men wear only a wedding band, some want to wear an engagement ring as a symbol of their impending nuptials. Men's engagement rings vary significantly from women's, but there are many options for style preferences.
