    buying a girl a ring, when it's not an engagement ring... yes/no?

    been together for over a year; living together for a few months; taking it day by day, no plans of getting married any time soon. is a ring without a proposal inappropriate?

    • call it an engorgement ringscarabin
    • no, i'm not proposing. looking for a gift. i was leaning towards "bad idea", 'cause there's no way of giving her a ring without the discussing the topic, or even worse her assuming it's a proposal, right...sine

    • kind of. there's a back-story though... i broke one of her rings and told her i'd replace it, but thinking about it, it seems weird...sine
