Proposing

When a male asks a female to marry him, he presents her with an engagement ring. What if it was the other way round, what does she present him with. Is there such a thing as a male engagement ring.

Yeah, just pick a nice ring!

I guess it is individual, you could give him whatever you want! Men aren't so fussed on rings and stuff (generalising), so why not get something they will LOVE and give them that at the same time?

Do we need to order our fancy hats.....??

Something you wanna share?

I think the ring was to show the man's intent and was an outward indication that the woman had given her love to one man, so it was just one way, but these days men have them too sometimes.

Just something I was thinking about, but don't know if I have the bottle Plus it's not a leap year

you can get different designs , i think it was just because he prefers simple designs, but i said it would look like that but if it was in platinum or silver or white gold with a simple design on it, you would tell the difference,

Good for you in thinking it, it's nice to see people reverse so called traditions

I guess if you wanted it to be different, you could get something a little different too? Something lasting, that he'd really like?

I think if I were in the situation I would have been tempted to get something like a new Leatherman, and get engraved on it Mr & Mrs '*+++*&^ 'or something to that effect Try putting a leatherman in a glass of champagne No chance that'll get missed

P.S. It's the Chinese year of the Dog, has to be a good omen
