About 2 weeks ago I was talking to my boyfriend about engagement rings. It was a totally random conversation that I has brought up due to a dear friend of mine recently becoming engaged. I mentioned how I would like to have a celtic knot as an engagement ring and he asked me where I would even find them and I named off a few stores around our area that might sell them.
Fast forward 2 weeks. We were out shopping and I saw a celtic knot ring that I liked but was a mens ring and much too big for me. My boyfriend then said 20 minutes later "oh, if you find a ring you like i’ll get it for you" A few hours later I find a ring and it was about 15 dollars sterling silver and PERFECT. I fell in love with it the minute I saw it.
It didn’t hit me until I got home about what I had said 2 weeks prior about wanting a celtic knot engagement ring. Maybe I’m looking too far into this. Maybe he just thinks of it as another peice of jewlery that I’ll wear. I just need some other opinons on this 
I wouldn’t take it as an engagement ring. Guys tend to be very clear about commitment – so if it’s unclear, it’s probably just him being very sweet and wanting to make you happy.

Well, I know it would be awkward to ask him so I won’t advise you to. Well, I mean it depends really on your age. If you’re too young (like teens, pre-teens) He obviously think that it’s just another piece of jewerly if you’re a tad bit older, I don’t believe a cheap ring would result in something like engagement. I think you’re too over-looking this, and I believe that if it was for engagement, he would’ve done it formally.

Did he give it to you right away? If not, then I hear wedding bells!!! Good luck!

he wants to marry you

I dont think its an engagment ring….
References :
if he didnt actually propose, i dont see why he would thing of it as an engagement. he’s not your fiance yet.

A $15 ring is not an engagement ring. If anything, he found you something nice, and you owe him the same thing as if he bout you flowers or chocolates, whatever you usually do for that will be fine.

Chances are if he didn’t say anything to you after getting the ring then he just wanted to get it for you because you liked it so much. You can always try to see what his intentions are by saying something like "Thank you so much for the ring, but what’s the occasion?" or something along those lines.

Well, maybe financially he cannot purchase your dream ring now, so he decided to buy something nice for you in the meantime. He sounds sweet.
References :
I think he just got it as a gift this time.
Unless the says the words, I don’t think it’s an engagement.
He sounds like a good guy.

did he buy it then you took it? if so then i think it is just another peice of jewlery.
bu if he bought it and hasnt given it to you yet… i think theres a chance that it is it. but that doesnt mean that he is asking you now lol. might just be saving it.
p.s. an engagement ring can be anything from a platnium 10,000$ diamond ring (there are prolly more expensive ones out there but you get the idea) to a peice of string. dont let people tell you that your 15$ ring isnt a good enough engagement ring (if it turns out to be that lol). I think it is sweet because its origonal and it actually means something. but a lot of times guys would WANT to get something a little bit nicer because they take pride in it. they dont want other people thinking he is cheap. maybe this is why he got you this one now so he can get you a nicer one later… who knows lol

well did he bend down on one knee and ask him to marry you??
References :
If he didn’t ask you to marry him, then it’s probably just a gift. Don’t read anymore into it until he says the words.
References :
Its just a token of his love – if he had intended it to be more he would have stated so. Never look to far ahead in what a simple gift may be otherwise you may end up hurt and make him uncomfortable or worse – as if his token of affection was taken way out of context and now embarrassed. What he more than likely heard is that his girlfriend would like a Celtic ring – he more than likely did not "listen" closely to the rest of your story about the friend and her engagement. Good luck!

yeah it means hes cheap Watch for your finger to turn green Girl go for the leo diamand at kays then that means something

A $15 engagement ring? Be serious. It’s probably more just a symbol of, we’re together and I bought you this ring. More a promise ring than anything! If you want the Celtic Knot and that’s not what he got you, then NO WAY is it an engagement ring. You are thinking wayyy too far into this hun!
References :
Well, I’d have to say that kind of depends…
I would say, the best thing for you to do is to talk to HIM. That’s the only sure fire way for you to find out what the ring means.

Hi, Meg.
The guys have got it right on this one; We take engagement seriously, and we like to do nice things like get our gf’s things she likes, just because she likes them.
You’d know if was asking you to marry him.
