Diamond Promise rings – For When You Mean It.
Diamond promise rings are quite common, but many are not all that sure what they are. What is a promise ring? And what does it mean?
Promise rings (all of them, not just diamond promise rings, I just love diamond ones) are a symbol of a promise made between 2 people that both intend to keep.
Not just any old promise, there are lots of those. But a really serious promise. One that is so important between two people that they are both prepared to make a public statement of their promise and intention to keep it by the wearing of a diamond promise ring.
They can also be known variously as a pre engagement ring, or a purity ring. Each is slightly different. Sometimes they are called a friendship ring, perhaps incorrectly.
A pre engagement ring is a symbol of an intention between 2 people to get engaged at some time in the future. A diamond promise ring of this type is a serious commitment. One not to be undertaken lightly. A statement to all who see it that these 2 people are committed to each other. That although the time is not right, for various reasons, to get engaged, they have both been prepared to make that serious commitment regardless.
A friendship ring is slightly different and may not be, strictly speaking, a promise ring. It is more commonly a symbol of a very strong friendship between 2 people. There is of course, nothing wrong with this at all, just that it is not strictly a symbol of a promise. Just a symbol of a special feeling. For example where 2 strong friends find that their lives take them to different parts of the world they can exchange diamond promise rings to seal their continuing friendship.
A diamond purity ring, on the other hand, is a symbol of a very strong promise of a very serious nature between 2 people. This is perhaps the most well known and most serious type of diamond promise ring, and perhaps requires the most thought, and the most commitment.
Often entered into between 2 younger people, a purity ring is
a promise about sexual purity. Often made between 2 young people for religious reasons, it is a promise to abstain from sexual activity until a certain time, usually their marriage.
And it need not always be a promise made between 2 people, it can also be a promise to oneself. A display of a promise that a young person shall remain pure until the time is right. Still, though, a very serious promise.
Some consider that a purity ring of this type is a promise between 2 “people”, in that the other half of the partnership is God. That this is a covenant or a promise made between a young person and his or her God.
The types of promise rings described are not exclusive. Diamond promise rings can be exchanged really for any reason. However it is very important, firstly, that both people understand exactly the nature of what is being promised. If possible write it down so there can be no misunderstandings. If it can be encapsulated in a short phrase why not get it inscribed on the ring?
And why diamond promise rings, rather than other types of promise rings? Just because diamonds are the best. Nothing beats a diamond for a ring.
And because they aren’t cheap, so the mere fact that you’ve both made a promise that you are prepared to cement by the serious commitment of spending money means that it is very important to you. A cheap ring really doesn’t mean so much.
So why not display to the world the seriousness of your promise by the wearing of a diamond promise ring? There’s no better way to make a commitment to each other until the time is right.
