When He Doesn’t Believe In Buying A Ring
“So, it’s about what your friends think”
Of course, when I mentioned what other people would say, my partner said, “Oh, so this isn’t really about your feelings—it’s about what other people think.” While refraining from becoming very annoyed I said, “Aren’t there a lot of things we do to make a public statement about our love? We post photos of ourselves online. You kiss me in public. You introduce me as your girlfriend. You obviously understand the value in presenting our love to the world—so why not in this instance?”
