My girlfriend and I had been going together for nearly two years and she was going off to college. We had discussed our future and I really wanted to get her a promise ring and she really wanted one.
I didn’t have much money at the time so when it was time for her to leave, I made a ring out of foil and carved her initials in it with a little message. She cried when I gave it to her and she said it was the sweetest thing she had ever received. She totally understood my situation and in the end, it was probably better than a real ring.
