snip....LWF...I LOVE this part of your thoughts.
I am of an almost similar train of thought.
To me, it shows that I am loved, wanted, and that I belong to someone.That somewhere, someone cares..and that My someone is also loved, wanted, and cared for..and that they belong...
When I was an ER Charge Nurse, and accident victims would come in...whether critically wounded or DOA...I always immediately looked at their hand to see if they had a ring on...for the reasons we both stated....
I know there are always exceptions to the rule, but we are talking about committment rings, etc here...

Great thread BTW!
