If you recall, my husband and I were basically told we needed to get married because we were living together and just joined the UPC. So, with no family present, we got married a few weeks later. We sold the rings we bought at a pawn shop two weeks after the wedding. I have a little band now. It's not the ring I dreamed of. Maybe someday, when we get our business built, I'll get one.

Yeah...of all the "proposal" scenes I have seen the woman's face really changes when she sees the ring, no matter what size it is. It's not just his words but that little symbol of his promise to marry her. I don't think that is merely cultural. I think it's built into women and so is the desire to "pretty" herself up
