They have been going out for about 1 year BUT they dated before so it's not like he doesn't know her.
Plus I don't think one should be giving promise rings at this stage in life. It's like taking baby steps this whole promise ring thing...in my opinion.
You don't need years and years to get to know someone....geez!
Why/How do you assume they've been going out for a long time? *re-reading initial post*
If they were, I guess it would be a little weird
because to give a promise ring at that age u have to be going out at least 2 years.... i can see it being less when u r a teen but when u get older is a diff story.
well i can see y the parents would be mad, I'm sure they have been going out for a long time and they are on there mid 30's so to give her a promise ring at this stage on there relationship is a little weird.
lol...I didn't mean to give her earrings as an engagement piece but just as a gift until the real engagement ring is given. All I know is that her parents were not too impressed.
I guess it's a little highschool-ish, pero tampoco it's outrageous or anything. Also, I guess rings, traditionally, have a certain meaning of commitment (be it engagment or what-have-you). I've never heard of an engagment earring, for example

by the way True scenario...someone I know got one.
Why would a guy in his mid 30's give his g/f also in her mid 30's a promise ring? Why couldn't he give her a pair of earrings, or necklace etc. Am I missing something here? Is this a warm up for the engagement ring? lol
