Original Post = My boyfriend [18m] of 3 years gave me [18f] a promise ring and is afraid of a LDR

My boyfriend [18m] and I [18f] ended up sitting down and talking about the whole promise ring thing. He said sorry for pushing his worries onto me, and making the promise ring focused on my faithfulness and not our love. He admitted that he knew other guys who like me and was jealous that he would be away. He also said that he knew I would never cheat on him. I also gave him the idea of getting him a promise ring too (but worn with a silver chain around his neck). He liked that idea. A few people said that he might cheat/fall in love with someone else in California, but I highly doubt that. He knows that if he does that, then he loses me forever. No amount of apologies would be able to make that up. Anyway, we’re now looking to buy him a matching ring. I’m going to have my initials engraved inside the band too.

tl;dr = Spoke to my boyfriend about the promise ring and our issues are gone.

    Sounds like a made up story to me

    LDR rarely work. It’s a reasonable concern even if it was approached poorly
