Same difference. It's all "claiming" no matter how they would like to twist it. . A person could merely have a boyfriend and still claim "engaged" even when they arent even UP to that stage, so NO it's not better as it's the same delusion of grandeur.

How many threads are there on Nairaland with girls yearning "I can't believe he cheated on me or had other girls, when he showed me to his friends and family, we were "engaged", falling for the oldest trick in the book of male lies. Unless there's a mutual act of exclusive-ness, a ring signifying the bond and the family has done extensive research and are all aware of this relationship then there's no fiancee/fiance.

Of course I know some who claim such mainly because they don't want to be bothered by the cretins of Nairaland. Understandable.

anyway I see this is actually a 2005 thread, weird


Anyway osisi, you craze

spoilt, what do you mean by not being in a conventional marriage?

Well you are kind of right as per the whole engaging thing but about the ring thing not everyone are into jewelries.

And you don’t have to have a ring on your finger to prove you are engaged

LadyT:

Hmmm you should like those men who tell their wives I don't need a ring to show I'm married. But we all know they don't wear it so they can do rubbish outside,

4Him:

i think u're just making excuses for the facts that:
1. you don't have an engagement ring to justify your alleged engagement.
2. Your purported engagement may just be a figment of your own imagination.

No woman i know, even those who dislike ear rings, will refuse an engagement ring.

You sound so much like this chic in our lab. She's 30, lives in with her boyfriend and is busy talking about savings accounts, getting a bigger house, buying washers and dryers into the home bla bla bla. I mostly stare in amazement . . . is this girl living on planet mars?

This guy has NOT even asked you to be his wife, his mom barely knows you and you're busy playing married life!

I guess desperation plays out in different ways.

And who said anything about refusing an engagement ring, there you go again another assumption from you. Btw, i was responding to D reloaders comments neither was i talking about me, was just replying to her in general.
And why will a girl like me want refuse a ring   lol, gosh think

Come to think of it my mom doesn't wear her wedding ring but will denial the fact that she's a married woman

Well not sure if this question was directed to me or not, but just in case it was hmmmmmmmm and do you know me outside nland, or my personal life to know he didn't ask me to marry, or his family doesn’t no me, or do you think am one of those girls a guy can deceive like that by sweet talking, my parents taught me better than that.

You think you know me or what am capable of, don't let all this nland post of mine decive you, because you know shit about me
As far the mother-in- law just spoke to her an hr ago

I guess desperation plays out in different ways.

Fhemmmy:

I think married couple need to get time off after every few years.
We do get sabbatical leave after some years of work, so something like that will help too in marriages

OAM4J:

Wish is allowed, may be a lot more will get married. lol

Fhemmmy:

yes oh, cos the only ones that seems to be enjoying the marriage are the women.
I wish i cld propose sabbatical leave off a marriage every 2 - 3 years, say for like 3 months . . . . .

OAM4J:

It should be like 1 month in a year and 1 full year in seven years. that is real sabbatical
