Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by Nobody: 2:26pm On Jan 18, 2012
How true is this statement? Can a man or a woman (for the more open-mined) continue to woo their heart desire even though the latter is in a serious relationship? I once read of how a lady on this forum broke up with her fiance to get married to someone else. I wouldn't have the guts to do that. Would you?

oKay gotcha. Ring okay
Re: Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by Nobody: 2:36pm On Jan 18, 2012
The statement is true! Every lady wants to get married, so if you are being slow, and a guy with similar qualities as you comes along, mehn. . . I wont even blame her! i'll blame myself!

@mynd_44 eh eh eh you're not serious. tongue answer my questions instead because there are tons of them in my opening post.
Re: Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by Mynd44: 2:46pm On Jan 18, 2012
To answer your question, I need some clarifications
Do you mean ring as in engagement or marraige? Cos an engagement is a mere promise which can be broken at anytime. To me yes it's true if there is No WEDDING ring on it, it is not lost.
And yes I can leave someone I am engaged to to marry someone else but it depends on the reasons and circumstances

Once a person is married, nobody has the right to put them asunder. The last chance is when they just have an engagement ring but even in that case i believe it's still a broken vow. Don't want to sound like a moralist but i have negative views about leaving your partner for another one. Who says that might not become a vicious cycle?

engagemant ring doesnt mean taken and wedding ring doesnt deter some peeps from living and acting like they are available.
Rings and relationships are things of the mind.
Re: Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by KateSpade(f): 4:18pm On Jan 18, 2012
I can understand it. you dont belong to anyone until you are married, if you dont want to marry someone u should try to get out of it. breakup is far better than a divorce.
Re: Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by jaybee3(m): 4:19pm On Jan 18, 2012
Engagement ring => Commitment to the course <= Not yet taken as it's only a bloody ring at that stage
Wedding ring => Commitment fulfilled <= You can't just take the ring off and decide you aren't taken any more as process of divorce should normally kick in if the couple decides to split

With the above assertions, i believe the title of the thread should be changed to nobody is taken until they have been joined at the altar  cool cool cool

Well the moderator can just add "before a minister" cause my title was about the wedding ring. Can the mods do me this little favour?

True say, sooner or later, the new partner realises that the same thing can be done again.

i agree with that statement that NOBODY IS TAKEN UNTIL THEY ARE PROPERLY MARRIED but there are ways to go from one person to the other. if a woman is engaged and suddenly jump ship and marries some other dude (at the drop of a hat) then something was wrong all along, and her ex fiancé just didnt see it.

some women are desperate for marriage and will marry any donkey out there who will have them, just to be seen as A WIFE.
sadly, this is the reason why many are "taken/married" and MISERABLE!!!!!!!!!
Re: Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by Nobody: 7:42pm On Jan 18, 2012
i disagree.
that ring and the vows WON'T stop the man or woman from cheating.
that ring or the vows WON'T and DOESN'T guarantee that there is true love
that ring nor the vows mean a thing except that it is a physical representation of your supposed union.

I SAY what's in the heart and the level of faithfulness in the relationship is what really matters.
Re: Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by Mynd44: 7:51pm On Jan 18, 2012
I don't think the OP meant cheating. Nore like commitment like the woman having claims over the guy and the othe way round.
Re: Nobody Is Taken Until They Put A Ring On "it" At The Altar by Nobody: 8:12pm On Jan 18, 2012
You spoke my mynd in 44 words i suppose. Mzchocolata there's no way i can condone cheating.
