    Ed surprised me with a lovely gift last night. Awwww. Isn't this pretty? It's a Promise ring, very delicate, and I love the significance of the infinity symbol. What a thoughtful man I have!:heart:

    Is a promise ring just like an engagement ring Ronni? Sorry if I'm being ignorant but I've never heard of a promise ring before. I'm just assuming that it's the same type of ring as you're wearing it on THAT finger. No matter what though it's absolutely gorgeous. :drool:Ed really is the man for you and I'm so glad you're together.

    Thanks Eileen. He's a sweet man and I consider myself very lucky to have found such a wonderful relationship, such a good fit and connection..at my age.

    Regarding Promise rings....they're typically given as a symbol of commitment or devotion between couples. Think of them as a token of love, much like the days when high school boys would give their girlfriends their class rings. It shows that you are exclusively dating, and it’s a way to express and show your commitment to each other.....a step up from being just boyfriend and girlfriend, but not yet formally engaged. It's more of a thing between young people...a millennial thing I think. Still I love the symbolism and what it represents, and am touched by the gift. :heart:

    Thanks for explaining Ronni. I think that's a lovely idea but not just for youngsters. A gesture like that makes you go weak at the knees knowing you're really and deeply loved by the man in your life. Do tell Ed that I think he's a man in a million to give you such a wonderful gift and for loving you with all his heart.
