Should I get her a ring? I feel like the symbolism of a ring is so huge that you should give one for the first time when it is an engagement ring. Am I wrong in thinking this?It's not that I don't want to spend forever with this girl, it's just that I'm not ready nor am I ready to put that idea in her head. SO: should I hold off on the ring, or will it be okay as merely a sweet Christmas present?Ladies, mostly interested in your opinions here but I welcome all.Thanks

 a ring is nice, i would just make sure to tell her that it is not an engagement ring. Or you could get her earrings, which would go with the necklace and braclet you got her the christmases before.

I would ask her something ahead of time like if she could tell you what size her fingers are on her right hand.
That may give away the surprise but it will make it clear that the ring is NOT for her ring finger.
Good Luck!! xx

I could have bought a new car with that sort of cash. I told her it was an 'Adoration Ring' so there was no question about it being for any other purpose. It was my way of telling her how much I adored her. Nothing else.
And I still do!

 hmm...I'm currently engaged but I recieved my first ring from my fiance long before he got down on one knee, and actually the first one I recieved was Christmas our first year together and we have shared 5 Christmases since then. If you decide to buy her a ring - make sure you state your reasons for giving her such a sweet and thoughful gift. You could say it was a promise ring - a promise to give ya'lls relationship 100%... hope this helps
