Male engagement rings. Is this for real?

The rules of engagement rings have changed drastically since they were initially established. Traditionally men have always offered their bride-to-be with a diamond engagement ring when proposing. This exchange of rings is a symbol that your significant other is “off-the market”. Normally, the women are the ones who receive the engagement ring, but it is becoming more and more widespread for the woman to offer an engagement ring to her fiancée as well.

The male engagement ring for some has also taken the place of the traditional engagement gift that is popular in so many different countries, where presenting a small gift such as a wristwatch, cufflinks or wallet was considered the thing to do.

Obviously, men's engagement rings do not look like women’s ring but are usually modest are more practical for work, sports, and leisure activities. Many men’s engagement rings are simple bands, with engravings or other minimal embellishments. While men’s engagement rings have distinctively varying styles from the typical ring, they serve the same symbolism: to declare privately and publicly the love a couple shares and their intent to spend the rest of their lives together.
