Connection rings… call it anything as long as its not marriage
I was with a friend today and I noticed he wore a silver ring on his left forefinger.
I asked what it was and he said it was his connection ring. He and his girlfriend has been living in for some time now and she suggested they get a connection ring to symbolize their belonging to one another.
So it is like marriage right? An engagement? No! Hush… my friend says his girlfriend is too young at 19.
Well I responded that 18 was the beginning of the legal age to get married.
But no… do not call it marriage, do not call it engagement.
These young people want to use new words to describe their live-in arrangement.
The ring even has a date etched when they first confessed their love for one another.
Call it a connection… ok? Don’t ask stupid questions like engagement or marriage. No children planned. They say they are too young at 19 and 26. They live in the same condominium.
I think its just contraceptive sex.
