The reason I was thinking about getting a promise ring wasn't because of marriage. We are almost 8, 000 miles part from each other in different continents. The promise ring will be a physical reminder of us and that one day we will be together. At this moment, we are not looking to get married, just going about our lives on step at a time.

This man has good points to backup his opinion, but remember every relationship is different, and this is just one man's opinion

I know me and my girlfriend are going to get married and I’m in high school. And no, I’m not blinded by love or a dumb teenager, but I do know this much. She knows we will too. This is giving me a lot of help so thanks very much

I feel that you had some really good points I also feel that people give promise rings as an 'I promise to love you forever' type thing. I am not going to lie I feel like you will always love someone weather you break up or not. I know some friendships even that no longer exist but that doesn't mean I love them any less. My boyfriend currently is my first boyfriend but some of the things I feel will never go away. Somewhere I read a quote that said you never stop loving somebody you just end up finding somebody you love more.

To me being given a promise ring, is like being in a relationship and wanting a future together...and then getting friend zoned. Just my opinion

Great Video Man! My girlfriend brought up the idea of promise rings and I immediately denied the idea and said it was unnecessary. However, because of my devoted passion to make her happy, Ive been looking into getting one. We have been together almost 3 years and we are both 22 years of age coming out of college (i just graduated). I am in no shape ready to get married because I cant even take cafe of and fully support myself yet (live at parents house). We want to move in together once she gradates but I want her to know that I want to be her husband one day but am not ready to get engaged yet. Thank you for your opinions in this video and thank you for giving me a different perspective about relationships as a whole. Stay Blessed brother!

i have been dating my current long distance girlfriend for a year or so now and we are getting a promise ring as nothing but a promise of we'll see each other one day. i think having a physical reminder of that is more powerful then just a mental note

I'm still in highschool, my girlfriend and I have been together for 2 years and I know I am going marry her. I plan on giving her a promise ring but this video caught my eye and now I wonder if I should or not. I mean we always talk about the future and how we'll get through college together. Though I asked her about how she's always talked about not wanting to get married... her answer was because she scared of what getting married stands for, she thinks it means you have to have kids and she's scared that they'd end up like her, disabled. At tat moment... I felt something... I felt like I needed to protect her for the rest of my life... and I plan to do just that. I know the point of this video was to get people to not get promise rings, but I just have to... I love her so much and because I'm so young, I can't exactly get an engagement ring.

Anyway... this video kinda had the opposite effect on me than what it should have, I still thank you for making this. It kinda opened my eyes and me realize I needed to get a promise ring for her.

I'll be back once I do to let yall know how it went... maybe.

I know a 60-year-old man who gave a promise ring without explaining if it was a promise ring or an engagement ring. He is still available, if anyone wants him. Good video.

I am about to be a freshman in college and I am only 17. I feel like promise rings are a good idea for people who are too young to get engaged but still want to be completely committed to each other. Obviously I am too young to be married and financially is a bad idea so I feel like it's a good idea. what are your thoughts on my situation

[gladymartinez]

I kind of disagree. My boyfriend and I are just graduating highschool so I think a promise ring is good for younger couples who cant get engaged yet. My parent's approval is kinda important to me before we get engaged and we know they aren't ready to say yes yet. A promise ring would let us feel committed (and also they're pretty) before having to ask my parents yet.

I feel that a promise ring should be given when you love some one early in the relationship. Plus the man should say exactly why he is giving it to you. This way there is no miss understanding!

[smiffy]

Thank you man. You have probably helped a lot of guys make up their mind, just like me. Thanks A LOT

I am 65 and my girlfriend is 64. We have agreed it would not be in either of our best interests to get married at this stage of our lives. We have been together now 6 years, and I plan on getting her a friendship ring this October for her birthday. I don’t think this will bring stress to the relationship. I think it will be seen as an act of love 💕.

[deadmeme]

I think there should be a ring for people who love each other, but don't want to be married. Maybe a forever ring, or the promise ring could stand for that? Idk cause I don't ever see myself wanting to be married, even if I'm with someone all my life, but some way of showing our relationship would be nice.

[stever]

What if me and my girlfriend have been going out for 11 months This Valentine’s Day making it our one year.? She’s always been talking about us getting married and having kids so I might want to get her a promise ring for our one year

"don't buy 2 rings, buy 1 really nice ring"

Or, you could buy 2 cheap rings ;)

I think my boyfriend is going to give me one soon, he says hes not going to propose, but says this gift will change a lot of things and that it is going to mean a lot. He also says it's not something "huge" but if I care enough it is, and he Hopes I say yes. So sounds like that's what it's going to be. Kind of a weird late birthday present tho lol. I love him so much, and I know we're going to last. I just think the whole idea is very cute, and meaningful, but seriously, if you're not an adult, think about it. A lot can happen, and people change. :) we are still young and we both know we wont get married for a loooong time prob like 10 years, considering we are putting our careers first. I appreciate your opinion but it exists for a reason, and is a way to show people you are committed.

I love my girlfriend we have been dating for 4 years now however I want to get engaged but I want to finish college first this is why I want to give her a promise ring first but you have some great points
