still dont get it, what on this earth can possibly brain wash someone so completely to put 5K, even 1K for that matter in a Symble of Union?   does one really need a   forsale "SOLD" sign to remain loyal ?  IF a person really needs a ring on thier finger to remind them they have given themselves to someone else for life and not to seek others, then there is something wrong. on same note, i cant fallow someone needing more then a Vow of love,loyalty and monogomy

really what is that ring? an investment? sheeeeeeaaaaahhh right,  

Honey, we really could use the work on the roof, lets sell your ring its worth 3K.   (slim chance)

OR how about this, and ive seen this with my own eyes.

Babe, my truck just died, i need a replacement as i cant take yours from you and the kids.  we can sell the ring and get a good down payment on another vehicle.      (i belive the exact quote was as follows)  "you get this ring back when im dead in a box and not before"       he lost his job 3 days later due to lack of transpo, whole family evicted 3 months later.  

OVER A RING!

i did buy my wife a ring, its a simple band, costing 40$ second hand.  no gems.  i dont wear one mainly as ive broken 2 working with my hands and would rather retain my fingers. i dont have the tan line, i also dont have a problem telling someone im taken.


Token of marriage, or symble of love is all fine and good, but too many belive there needs to be $$$$$ backing them up to mean anything. or show any conviction of the heart.  .....and its bloody well stupid.
