What does a ring mean in a relationship these days? I mean, does it really show that you're serious, or as Luke Danes puts it, are you "in"? Me, I am still freaked out by the thought of having to wear the same ring with my boyfriend. It would be nice, though, if he gave me one, but only if it was because it's a ring I would like. Just for the sake of its beautiful appearance, with no intention to "tie" me with it.
..On a second thought, no thanks. Maybe in a few years, but not now, I don't want a ring in any form of purpose.
But enough about me. What does a ring mean, really? Does it mean you're gonna take your commitment to the next level? Does it mean you're telling people that you're taken completely, so there's no chance for other people to come near you, or even secretly hope to? Does it mean you're in a stable relationship where nothing in the world can never rock your, uh, boat?
A friend once told me, when we were having this conversation about our engaged friends (which was unusual 'cos we had just been graduated from high school back then), "Kalo tunangan-tunangan doang sih gue juga sering." Or something like that. I remember it made me think what a bastard that guy was, taking commitments for granted.
..Now I don't see the point of putting that last paragraph above. Oh well, excuse the nocturnal mind who is taking over me now, hence the questions I've never asked--even to myself--before.
