A newly engaged young woman
asks: why isn't it custom for the
girl to give the man an engage
ment ring the way she often does
give him a wedding ring?"
There is no reason in the world
why she may not give him a ring
if she wants to. and he would like
to wear one. But please let her
make sure of this before she buys
one for him. Usually an engage
ment ring is only one given by the
man to the girl. The man is very
seldom given a ring, or in fact,
any present at all.
