Sniper, you softie. I ALMOST
mistook you there for a leftie....nah.
For once I agree with you on something. My girlfriend wears a diamond ring I bought her becauseI wanted her to have it. I wanted it to come without discussing the "meaning" of a ring, etc. No promises of anything except as a sign of my devotion to her. I would never intentionally hurt this woman and I try to reinforce that every chance I get.
To my mind (perhaps yours?) there is no greater promise nor commitment than that, if heartfelt.
