I can finally tell the secret I've been holding on to for...oh, a couple of months now!
Those are our "wedding" rings. We can't get legally married, of course, and we've been practically married for a few years now, but this just symbolizes our commitment. I'm on cloud nine now that we finally have them. We ordered them a couple of weeks ago from DVB, a New York-based company that is the source for many other sellers. My wife (I'll be calling her that even more often now) felt strongly that she wanted a poesy ring, so we were looking at those pretty much exclusively. The ones we ended up getting are in Old French, and they say here is my heart, guard it well. You can see a close-up picture from the maker, but it doesn't show that the word coeur is actually a drawn heart. It's based on a ring that is currently in the British Museum, and it dates to about the 15th century. My ring is 14k white gold, and my wife's ring is 18k yellow gold. For heterosexual couples, the man doesn't usually have other jewelry to coordinate with and doesn't care what color the rings are. But being two women, we each had different tastes!

As I mentioned, I am absolutely flying high with this. I love our rings, and I love my wife.

Our anniversary is generally Valentine's Day, which is pretty close to the time we first started dating. :)
 
Everyone deserves happiness, Etoile. But there are some for whom we'd go out of our way to make sure they have it. You are one of those people. :rose:

You should move it, then you'd get twice as many gifts.
 
Not a big surprise (I was going to ask about the transition from using gf to wife), but congratulations and my warmest wishes to you both! The rings are gorgeous as well. :) I'm all happy and excited for you! :rose:

Psst...Are you going to change the girlfriend to wife in your sig line?
 
Hmm.

Marriage, eh?

Well, I have no option but to offer my whole-hearted congratulations. There seems to be a rash of marriages taking place around this time of year. Must be Christmas drawing in. Or something. Maybe.

Have a nice life!
